objtool: Allow symbol range comparisons for IBT/ENDBR

A semi common pattern is where code checks if a code address is
within a specific range. All text addresses require either ENDBR or
ANNOTATE_ENDBR, however the ANNOTATE_NOENDBR past the range is
unnatural.

Instead, suppress this warning when this is exactly at the end of a
symbol that itself starts with either ENDBR/ANNOTATE_ENDBR.
