Before we disabled the warning about RWX segments only for picolibc, but this issue is popping up on more and more toolchains (looking at MSP430 and RISC-V). Other than on `native`/`native64`, there is no MMU to enforce whatever permissions the segments contain anyway. (And writing to ROM with regular store instructions will not be possible even without the need for an MMU.) So let's just globally disable this warning, unless building for `native` and `native64`.

There was a problem hiding this comment.
Works as intended! Thanks, it really was annoying me.
Note: You are disregarding it lightly because "theres no MMU" but we do have systems with an MPU. Which could easily make the linker happy :> But that's an adventure the size of Narnia.

Building in
masterwith RIOT-OS/riotdocker#248 will issue the RWX warning for every app now. And so does building on Alpine for MSP430.With this PR the in our context not helpful warning is disabled.
