gh-148535: Don't use gcc -fprofile-update=atomic flag on i686 (#148554)
The -fprofile-update=atomic flag was added to fix a random GCC
internal error on PGO build (gh-145801) caused by corruption of
profile data (.gcda files). The problem is that it makes the PGO
build way slower (up to 47x slower) on i686. Since the GCC internal
error was not seen on i686 so far, don't use -fprofile-update=atomic
on i686.
