This commit disables the generation of the .note.GNU-stack section for libphobos on NetBSD to resolve linker warnings about executable stacks. NetBSD’s linker (gld) warns when this section is missing, but the NetBSD platform does not require or use it, unlike FreeBSD and OpenBSD. The change removes its inclusion from libdruntime/config/common/threadasm.S for NetBSD.
