meson: move -no-pie from linker to compiler

The large comment in the patch says it all; the -no-pie flag is broken and
this is why it was not included in QEMU_LDFLAGS before commit a988b4c561
("build: move remaining compiler flag tests to meson", 2023-05-18).  And
some distros made things even worse, so we have to add it to the compiler
command line.

# Meson currently only handles pie as a boolean for now, so if the user
# has explicitly disabled PIE we need to extend our cflags.
#
# -no-pie is supposedly a linker flag that has no effect on the compiler
# command line, but some distros, that didn't quite know what they were
# doing, made local changes to gcc's specs file that turned it into
# a compiler command-line flag.
#
# What about linker flags? For a static build, no PIE is implied by -static
# which we added above (and if it's not because of the same specs patching,
# there's nothing we can do: compilation will fail, report a bug to your
# distro and do not use --disable-pie in the meanwhile). For dynamic linking,
# instead, we can't add -no-pie because it overrides -shared: the linker then
# tries to build an executable instead of a shared library and fails. So
# don't add -no-pie anywhere and cross fingers. :(
