LOG: [compiler-rt] Make __EH_FRAME_LIST__ const to avoid RW .eh_frame mapping (#155764) (#155955)

In crtbegin.c, `__EH_FRAME_LIST__` was previously declared as a writable
array of pointers. This caused the linker to place .eh_frame into a
segment with read-write permissions, leading to larger virtual memory
footprint at runtime (e.g. .eh_frame mapped into both LOAD and RELRO).

Changing it to `static void * const __EH_FRAME_LIST__[]` ensures that
the section is treated as read-only, matching GCC’s behavior with
`__EH_FRAME_BEGIN__`. This prevents unnecessary RW mappings of .eh_frame
while preserving the intended semantics.

Fixes: #155764
