[PATCH] D12029: [lld] LinkDriver, lld-link: introduce shim.

[Rui Ueyama via llvm-commits]

I guess that the experience of the compiler is not directly applicable to
this because the architecture is pretty different. I'd like to know which
options cannot be mapped to link.exe options, which can, and which options
don't have to be supported (some GNU ld options for PE/COFF seem to
implement experimental features which does not seem to me to have to be
supported). Also, do we have to support linker script on Windows?
