That should of course be "documents the latter."
Long options also supported by bfd/gold, where lld does not accept the = form:
--auxiliary value
--dynamic-linker value
--oformat format
--section-start address
lld-specific long options where = is not accepted:
--lto-O opt-level
--opt-remarks-filename file
--symbol-ordering-file file
--thinlto-cache-policy file
