wic depends on virtual/cross-binutils because its EFI boot image plugin
once assembled unified kernel images and needed cross-objcopy for it.
That plugin no longer builds them: it refuses and points at
uki.bbclass, which declares virtual/cross-binutils itself.

No code wic runs invokes objcopy any more, so drop the dependency from
the two places still carrying it.
