When building with clang, via:
make LLVM=1 -C tools/testing/selftests
...clang warns that -no-pie is "unused during compilation".
This occurs because clang only wants to see -no-pie during linking.
Here, we don't have a separate linking stage, so a compiler warning is
unavoidable without (wastefully) restructuring the Makefile.
Avoid the warning by simply disabling that warning, for clang builds.
