Mk/bsd.port.mk has

BINUTILS?=  ADDR2LINE AR AS CPPFILT GPROF LD NM OBJCOPY OBJDUMP RANLIB \
    READELF SIZE STRINGS

We are attempting to fix issues arising from WITH_LLVM_BINUTILS (see PR258872) and a number of ports are failing due to llvm-strip being overly strict. I would like to add a LLVM_STRIP_UNSAFE tag (similar to the existing LLD_UNSAFE) but it appears USE_BINUTILS has no provision for using binutils strip?
