[PATCH v3] scripts/gcc-plugins: suppress recorded GCC switches for extmod builds

[Jaihind Yadav <jaihindy@qti.qualcomm.com>]

With GCC plugins enabled, external module builds can record
-fplugin=... paths in DWARF producer metadata via
-grecord-gcc-switches, leaking host/build specific paths and
triggering QA checks.

Handle this in scripts/Makefile.gcc-plugins for KBUILD_EXTMOD
builds by adding -gno-record-gcc-switches to plugin cflags.

This keeps plugin behavior unchanged while avoiding absolute
plugin path leakage in external module debug metadata.
