[clang] [clang] recognize any *-ld.lld variant (PR #117338)

[Brian Cain via cfe-commits]

https://github.com/androm3da created https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/117338

If we create a cross toolchain with a ${triple}-ld.lld symlink, clang finds that symlink and when it uses it, it's not recognized as "lld".  Let's resolve that symlink and consider it when determining lld-ness.

For example, clang provides hexagon-link specific link arguments such as `-mcpu=hexagonv65` and `-march=hexagon` when hexagon-unknown-linux-musl-ld.lld is found.  lld rejects this with the following error:

    hexagon-unknown-linux-musl-ld.lld: error: unknown emulation: cpu=hexagonv65

Subject: [PATCH] [clang] recognize any *-ld.lld variant

If we create a cross toolchain with a ${triple}-ld.lld symlink, clang finds
that symlink and when it uses it, it's not recognized as "lld".  Let's
resolve that symlink and consider it when determining lld-ness.

For example, clang provides hexagon-link specific link arguments such as
`-mcpu=hexagonv65` and `-march=hexagon` when hexagon-unknown-linux-musl-ld.lld
is found.  lld rejects this with the following error:

    hexagon-unknown-linux-musl-ld.lld: error: unknown emulation: cpu=hexagonv65
