Remove .ARM.attributes when converting from ELF to a.out.

Mirror the changes to sys/arch/cats/conf/Makefile.cats.inc: remove
some more ELF sections when copying to a.out format: .debug_frame,
.debug_loc, .debug_pubnames, and .debug_aranges.

Fix another place where the newly added partial debugging symbols
need to be omitted in ELF -> a.out conversion.

Remove the .note.netbsd.ident section when converting the kernel to a.out.

As requested in PR port-cats/30460 add support for GENERIC.ABLE kernel to
sysinst, and also add the ABLE install kernel to the generated release
kernels.

use simpler MDSET_NOSTRIP= instead of MDSET_NOSTRIP.xxxx=

Need to remove .comment too.

Don't strip the kernel before the objcopy as the result won't load with
the CATS firmware. I think this is due to a bug in bfd. We'll see.

Use objcopy to a.out'ify the install kernel image.

- rework suffix handling:
- rename MDSET.${filename}.suffixes -> MDSET_SUFFIXES.${filename},
and change from list of suffixes to list of "suffix cmdtobuildsuffix",
where cmdtobuildsuffix is the name of the variable containing the
command to build ${filename}.${suffix} (available as "${.TARGET}").
- for each ${filename}.${suffix}, depend upon ${filename} and use
${cmdtobuildsuffix} to create the former.
- add separate ${filename}.${suffix}.gz rule
- mipsco & pmax: rename "install.gz" to "netbsd-INSTALL.gz", for
consistency and so the target to build the mdset kernel doesn't get
confused with general "install" target
