Subject: [PATCH] cmd/link: skip TestFlagW on AIX

The internal/xcoff can only parse XCOFF with symbol table. This
test creates executables without symbol table. Skip the test.

(It might be possible to make internal/xcoff work with binaries
without symbol table? Leave it for the future.)

Fixes #75618.
