Only use objcopy in Linux environments quarkusio#13856

* `objcopy` invocations in macOS make the executable crash on startup. * Debug info is only available for Linux, so avoid `objcopy` altogether on macOS, even if present in PATH. * Updated documentation to avoid confusion. * Adjusted warning messages about `objcopy`. (cherry picked from commit 7c12f02)
