objtool: Drop noinstr hack for KCSAN_WEAK_MEMORY 

Now that the minimum supported version of LLVM for building the kernel
has been bumped to 15.0.0, __no_kcsan will always ensure that the thread
sanitizer functions are not generated, so remove the check for tsan
functions in is_profiling_func() and the always true depends and
unnecessary select lines in KCSAN_WEAK_MEMORY.

Enable support for modeling a subset of weak memory, which allows
detecting a subset of data races due to missing memory barriers.
