aarch64 has the same issue since

  binutils commit 90b7a5df152a64d2bea20beb438e8b81049a5c30
  aarch64: Disallow copy relocations on protected data

which should be in the binutils 2.39 release

ld.lld rejects such usage too, i think the plan was to not
support extern protected symbol refs with canonical address
moved to the main exe.

so the tests should be changed, but i'm not sure what's
the best approach (completely dropping protected or just
ensure the address is not taken in no-pie case).
