Subject: [PATCH v2 07/62] elfnote: Change ELFNOTE() to use __UNIQUE_ID()
In preparation for the objtool klp diff subcommand, replace the custom
unique symbol name generation in ELFNOTE() with __UNIQUE_ID().
This standardizes the naming format for all "unique" symbols, which will
allow objtool to properly correlate them. Note this also removes the
"one ELF note per line" limitation.
