lib/Kconfig.debug: Restrict DEBUG_INFO_SPLIT for RISC-V

When building for ARCH=riscv using LLVM < 14, there is an error with
CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_SPLIT=y:

  error: A dwo section may not contain relocations

This was worked around in LLVM 15 by disallowing '-gsplit-dwarf' with
'-mrelax' (the default), so CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_SPLIT is not selectable
with newer versions of LLVM:

  $ clang --target=riscv64-linux-gnu -gsplit-dwarf -c -o /dev/null -x c /dev/null
  clang: error: -gsplit-dwarf is unsupported with RISC-V linker relaxation (-mrelax)

GCC silently had a similar issue that was resolved with GCC 12.x.
Restrict CONFIG_DEBUG_INFO_SPLIT for RISC-V when using LLVM or GCC <
12.x to avoid these known issues.

          Generate debug info into separate .dwo files. This significantly
          reduces the build directory size for builds with DEBUG_INFO,
