Build: Pass "-z separate-code" to linker

Browse source 
This tells the linker to not combine read-only data and executable code,
instead favoring multiple PT_LOAD headers with more precise permissions.

This greatly reduces the amount of executable pages in all our programs
and libraries.

/usr/lib/libjs.so before:

  Type           Offset   VirtAddr   PhysAddr   FileSiz  MemSiz   Flg Align
  LOAD           0x000000 0x00000000 0x00000000 0x2fc77c 0x2fc77c R E 0x1000
  LOAD           0x2fc900 0x002fd900 0x002fd900 0x0c708  0x0dd1c  RW  0x1000

/usr/lib/libjs.so after:

  Type           Offset   VirtAddr   PhysAddr   FileSiz  MemSiz   Flg Align
  LOAD           0x000000 0x00000000 0x00000000 0x80e60  0x80e60  R   0x1000
  LOAD           0x081000 0x00081000 0x00081000 0x25f6c9 0x25f6c9 R E 0x1000
  LOAD           0x2e1000 0x002e1000 0x002e1000 0x1c27c  0x1c27c  R   0x1000
  LOAD           0x2fd900 0x002fe900 0x002fe900 0x0c708  0x0dd1c  RW  0x1000

As you can see, we go from 0x2fc77c bytes of executable memory down to
0x25f6c9 (a ~20% reduction!) The memory that was previous executable is
now simply read-only instead. :^)
