[PATCH] selftests/nolibc: stop testing constructor order

[Thomas Weißschuh]

The execution order of constructors in undefined and depends on the
toolchain.  While recent toolchains seems to have a stable order, it
doesn't work for older ones and may also change at any time.

Stop validating the order and instead only validate that all
constructors are executed.
