I'm still not a fan of the complexity this adds to AddLinkerInputs:
careful logic to open and close numbered rsp files, etc., whereas the
usual work of this function is just to add some inputs to a vector.

Even if we can't push this response file stuff all the way down to
when we invoke subprocesses, I think that building the list of
arguments, and possibly putting some of them in a response file should
be separate things.

Are there really linkers that we care about that don't understand
response files, but accept these "file list files"?
