LOG: [clang-repl] Respect LLD's canRunAgain result (#223926)
Clang-Repl’s Wasm executor calls `lld::lldMain()` for every incremental
input, but currently ignores `Result.canRunAgain`.
Ordinary linker errors remain recoverable:
```text
retCode=1 canRunAgain=1
```
A fatal LLD error can instead return:
```text
retCode=1 canRunAgain=0
```
In that case, LLD’s state may no longer be safe. This patch follows
LLD’s standalone driver and calls `lld::exitLld()` rather than allowing
Clang-Repl to perform another incremental link.
I verified this with the real Emscripten `lldWasm` library: a normal
invalid wasm file input remained reusable (ordinary error), while a
valid but non-relocatable Wasm module triggered `canRunAgain=false`
(fatal error) and terminated the runtime with status 1.
