Jan Höppner 0a711d4934 common.mak: Remove no-pie support check ...

The command line options -fno-pie/-no-pie are required by boot loaders
as they have strict layout requirements. A check was implemented using
-dumpspecs to evaluate the compiler support as older compilers didn't
support the no-pie command line options.
However, -dumpspecs is a GCC specific option and the check will
therefore always fail for Clang. The objective is to enable Clang
compilation support for s390-tools in the long-run.

Since support for -fno-pie/-no-pie in GCC was introduced 2015 with
version 6.1.0 and in Clang 2010 with version 3.0.0, general support can
be assumed.

Simply remove the support check and get rid of another obstacle that's
in the way for full Clang support.
