OpenSBI is compiled with -fPIE, which generally implies dynamic linking.
This causes the compiler to generate GOT references for global symbols
in order to support runtime symbol interposition. However, OpenSBI does
not actually perform dynamic linking, so the GOT indirection just adds
unnecessary overhead.
The GOT references can be avoided by declaring global symbols with
hidden visibility, thus making them local to this dynamic object and
non-interposable. GCC/Clang's -fvisibility parameter is insufficient for
this purpose when referencing objects from other translation units;
either __attribute__((visibility(...)) or the pragma is required. Use
the pragma since it is easier to apply to every symbol. Additionally
clean up the one GOT reference from inline assembly.
With this change, a firmware linked with LLD does not contain either a
GOT or a PLT, and a firmware linked with BFD ld contains only a GOT with
a single (unreferenced, legacy) _GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_ entry.

For some debuggers that do not implement SYSWRITEC and SYSREADC
operations, we have to use SYSWRITE and SYSREAD.
Instead of implementing semihosting_putc() using SYSWRITE, let us
simply remove semihosting_putc() because console_putc/console_puts
are now interchangeable.

For some debuggers that do not implement SYSWRITEC and SYSREADC
operations, we can use SYSWRITE and SYSREAD instead like the
implementation of semihosting_getc().
