xcompile: Disable null pointer optimizations
According to the C standard, accessing the NULL pointer (memory at address zero) is undefined behaviour, and so GCC is allowed to optimize it out. Of course, accessing this memory location is sometimes necessary, so this optimization can be disabled using -fno-delete-null-pointer-checks. This is already done in coreboot, but adding it to xcompile will also disable it for all the payloads. For example, coreinfo compiled with LTO libpayload crashes when this flag isn't set, presumably because the compiler is optimizing something out that it shouldn't.
