libbpf: Skip DWARF sections in linker sanity check

clang can generate (with -g -Wa,--compress-debug-sections) 4-byte aligned DWARF sections that declare themselves to be 8-byte aligned in the section header. Since DWARF sections are dropped during linking anyway, just skip running the sanity checks on them.
