Title:
  hardening-check: add support for detecting stack clash protected
  binaries

Status in devscripts package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  The security team is in the process of making -fstack-clash-protection
  enabled by default in gcc-8/9 for 19.10 / 20.04. To support this it is
  useful to be able to detect binaries which include this new feature
  via hardening-check. Unlike previous features this can only be
  detected by looking for the sequence of instructions which perform
  this feature in the disassembly output via objdump.
