lib/clz_tab.c: put in lib-y rather than obj-y

The clz table (__clz_tab) in lib/clz_tab.c is also provided as part of
libgcc.a, and many architectures link against libgcc.  To allow the
linker to avoid a multiple-definition link failure, clz_tab.o has to be
in lib/lib.a rather than lib/builtin.o.  The specific issue is that
libgcc.a comes before lib/builtin.o on vmlinux.o's link command line, so
its _clz.o is pulled to satisfy __clz_tab, and then when the remainder
of lib/builtin.o is pulled in to satisfy all the other dependencies, the
__clz_tab symbols conflict.  By putting clz_tab.o in lib.a, the linker
can simply avoid pulling it into vmlinux.o when this situation arises.

The definitions of __clz_tab are the same in libgcc.a and in the kernel;
arguably we could also simply rename the kernel version, but it's
unlikely the libgcc version will ever change to become incompatible, so
just using it seems reasonably safe.
