objtool: Remove ANNOTATE_IGNORE_ALTERNATIVE from CLAC/STAC
ANNOTATE_IGNORE_ALTERNATIVE adds additional noise to the code generated
by CLAC/STAC alternatives, hurting readability for those whose read
uaccess-related code generation on a regular basis.
Remove the annotation specifically for the "NOP patched with CLAC/STAC"
case in favor of a manual check.
Leave the other uses of that annotation in place as they're less common
and more difficult to detect.
