This links in CET support if GCC defaults to CET.  Otherwise, __CET__
is defined, yet CET functionality is not compiled and linked into the
dynamic loader, resulting in a linker failure due to undefined
references to _dl_cet_check and _dl_open_check.

(cherry picked from commit 9fb8139079ef0bb1aa33a4ae418cbb113b9b9da7)
