objtool/klp: Fix cross-module klp relocation section naming
A klp relocation section is .klp.rela.<objname>.<secname>, where objname is the object being patched. klp-build wrongly derives objname from where the referenced symbol lives, not where it's referenced. For a cross-module reference like patched can_isotp code calling can.ko's can_rx_unregister(), that gives .klp.rela.can..text rather than .klp.rela.can_isotp..text. Unless the patch happens to patch can.ko as well, the relocation never gets applied and the call goes off into the weeds. Name the intermediate section __klp_relocs.<objname> so post-link can read the patched object's name from there.
