Subject: objtool/klp: fix data alignment in __clone_symbol()

Commit 356e4b2f5b80 ("objtool: Fix data alignment in elf_add_data()")
corrected the alignment of data within a section (honoring the section's
sh_addralign).  Apply the same alignment when klp-diff mode clones a
symbol, adjusting the new symbol's offset for the output section's
sh_addralign.

Fixes: dd590d4d57eb ("objtool/klp: Introduce klp diff subcommand for diffing object files")
