[build] Allow assembler section type character to vary by architecture
On some architectures (such as ARM) the "@" character is used as a comment delimiter. A section type argument such as "@progbits" therefore becomes "%progbits". This is further complicated by the fact that the "%" character has special meaning for inline assembly when input or output operands are used, in which cases "@progbits" becomes "%%progbits". Allow the section type character(s) to be defined via Makefile variables. Signed-off-by: Michael Brown <mcb30@ipxe.org>
