ld-*.so and libpthread*.so* are not stripped in the same way as other
binaries because some applications need symbols in these libraries in
order to operate correctly.

However, the special handling for these binaries ignores the usual
BR2_STRIP_EXCLUDE_* rules so it is not possible to build an image which
has debugging symbols in these binaries.

Instead of running one-off commands to strip each of these special
binaries, build a single command for everything that needs
$(STRIP_STRIP_DEBUG) and include the normal exclusion rules in this
command.
