modpost: make sym_add_exported() always allocate a new symbol
Currently, sym_add_exported() does not allocate a symbol if the same
name symbol already exists in the hash table.
This does not reflect the real use cases. You can let an external
module override the in-tree one. In this case, the external module
will export the same name symbols as the in-tree one. However,
modpost simply ignores those symbols, then Module.symvers for the
external module loses its symbols.
sym_add_exported() should allocate a new symbol.
