How about introducing a new `--ld64-compat` flag that developers can use if they want to adopt LLD with minimal differences from ld64? I agree that it's not reasonable to expect the average end-user to understand the linking process in detail just to adopt LLD, but I think presenting them a higher-level flag that maximizes LD64 compatibility (and putting it front-and-center in our docs) makes things more approachable. Right now, that flag would simply alias to `--deduplicate-literals`, but we could expand it to other behaviors in the future.
