[Skiboot] [PATCH 1/2] skiboot.lds.S: Remove boot_tracebuf section

Back in 2015, commit f2a7a5c23d81 ("Move boot_tracebuf to BSS") moved
the trace buffer from a specially aligned section. This may have been a
bad idea for the users of the skiboot tracing infrastructure, but no one
has complained in the intervening three years.
