compiler.h: avoid escaped section names
The stringification operator, `#`, in the preprocessor escapes strings.
For example, `# "foo"` becomes `"\"foo\""`. GCC and Clang differ in how
they treat section names that contain \".
The portable solution is to not use a string literal with the preprocessor
stringification operator.
In this case, since __section unconditionally uses the stringification
operator, we actually want the more verbose
__attribute__((__section__())).
Fixes: commit e04462fb82f8 ("Compiler Attributes: remove uses of __attribute__ from compiler.h")
