[LLVMdev] New linker ownership

The new linker is quickly becoming more than just an experiment. 64-bit
COFF linker is mostly feature complete, and now we are having a direct
translation of the COFF linker for ELF.

Historically LLD has been suffered by over-designing and over-engineering.
I don't want to repeat that again in the new codebase, so I'd like to be an
owner of the new linkers (both for ELF and COFF), so that I'm responsible
to ensure all patches are reviewed (whether pre-commit or post-commit) if
submitted to one of ELF or COFF directories.

Is this okay with you guys? If it sounds reasonable to you guys, I'll
create an OWNERS file under the LLD top directory and add myself for ELF
and COFF.
