    i386: Avoid rely on linker optimization to avoid relocation
    
    lld does not implement all the linker optimization to avoid the GOT
    relocation as done by binutils (bfd/elf32-i386.c:elf_i386_convert_load_reloc).
    The current 'movl main@GOT(%ebx), %eax' will then create a GOT
    relocation when building with lld, which make static-pie status to
    not being able to start the provided main function.
    
    The change uses a __wrap_main local symbol, which in turn calls main
    (similar as used by aarch64 and s390x).
    
    Checked on i686-linux-gnu with binutils and lld.
