Subject: [PATCH] [ELF] --warn-backrefs: --defsym does not make a backward
 reference

The interaction between --warn-backrefs was not tested, but if
--defsym-created reference causes archive member extraction, it seems
reasonable to suppress the diagnostic, which was the behavior before #78944.

(cherry picked from commit 9a1ca245c8bc60b1ca12cd906fb31130801d977e)
