----------------
Os/Oz are closer to O2 than O3 (which allows much more aggressive code size increasing optimizations).

Better though to add a size level to the LTO::Config, teach lld to pass it through properly, then using the LTO Config to set the SizeLevel in the old PM and the PassBuilder::OptimizationLevel in the new PM when setting up the LTO backend pipelines, similar to how CodeGenLevel.OptimizeSize is handled in clang (BackendUtil.cpp).

My concern is that silently mapping Os/Oz to do something different than in the non-LTO pipeline is going to end up more confusing than the current error (which isn't good either, but at least makes it clear that it isn't supported).
