Strip LTO symbols from distributed .a/.o files

GCC's LTO implementation emits bytecodes into .o files it generates.
These bytecodes are _not_ considered stable from one release of GCC
to the next. There we need to strip the LTO bytecode out of any .o
(and .a) file that gets installed into the package.
