objtool/rust: relax slice condition to cover more `noreturn` Rust functions

Developers are indeed hitting other of the `noreturn` slice symbols in
Nova [1], thus relax the last check in the list so that we catch all of
them, i.e.

*_4core5slice5index22slice_index_order_fail
*_4core5slice5index24slice_end_index_len_fail
*_4core5slice5index26slice_start_index_len_fail
*_4core5slice5index29slice_end_index_overflow_fail
*_4core5slice5index31slice_start_index_overflow_fail

These all exist since at least Rust 1.78.0, thus backport it too.

See commit 56d680dd23c3 ("objtool/rust: list `noreturn` Rust functions")
for more details.
