Description
There are a few tests that are explicitly designed to test cases around having duplicate symbols with different types in different object files. This requires that the compiler pass -fcommon, which was the default until the GCC 10 era of compilers. As a result, rather than assuming this will be the compiler's default we should just pass that flag when required.

I tested this by running the CTF test suite against a number of different compilers with both -gdwarf-2 and -gdwarf-4 (when supported). The compilers were:
- gcc 4.4.4
- gcc 7.4.0
- gcc 7.5.0
- gcc 8.3.0
- gcc 9.3.0
- gcc 10.2.0
- clang 8.0.1
- clang 9.0.1
- clang 10.0.1
- clang 11.0.0
