Bug#1125944: binutils-x86-64-linux-gnu: input SFrame sections with different format versions prevent .sframe generation

I didn't realize that glibc was still built with --enable-sframe. sframe 
v2 and v3 are incompatible. Only future vX versions will see upgradability.

To move forward,

   - glibc needs to be built without --enable-sframe on i386,
     amd64, x32 and arm64, binaries uploaded to unstable,
     built in testing.

   - then glibc can be built again with --enable-sframe
     enabled, maybe adjusting glibc build-deps on binutils.
     sframe also should be enabled on s390x.
