x86_64: Remove unneeded static PIE check for undefined weak diagnostic

https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=21782 dropped an ld
diagnostic for R_X86_64_PC32 referencing an undefined weak symbol in
-pie links.  Arguably keeping the diagnostic like other ports is more
correct, since statically resolving movl foo(%rip), %eax to the
link-time zero address produces a corrupted output.

It turns out that --enable-static-pie builds do not depend on the ld
behavior. GCC generates GOT indirection for weak declarations for
-fPIE/-fPIC, so what ld does with the PC-relative relocation doesn't
really matter.
