This patch adds and exception to the nvlink wrapper tool to not pass
empty cubin files to the nvlink job. If an empty file is passed to
nvlink it will cause an error indicating that the file could not be
opened. This would occur if the user tried to link object files that
contained offloading code with a file that didnt. This will act as a
workaround until the new OpenMP offloading driver becomes the default.

This is the original patch in my GNUInstallDirs series, now last to merge as the final piece!
It arose as a new draft of D28234. I initially did the unorthodox thing of pushing to that when I wasn't the original author, but since I ended up
- Using `GNUInstallDirs`, rather than mimicking it, as the original author was hesitant to do but others requested.
- Converting all the packages, not just LLVM, effecting many more projects than LLVM itself.
I figured it was time to make a new revision.
I have used this patch series (and many back-ports) as the basis of https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/111487 for my distro (NixOS), which was merged last spring (2021). It looked like people were generally on board in D28234, but I make note of this here in case extra motivation is useful.
---
As pointed out in the original issue, a central tension is that LLVM already has some partial support for these sorts of things. Variables like `COMPILER_RT_INSTALL_PATH` have already been dealt with. Variables like `LLVM_LIBDIR_SUFFIX` however, will require further work, so that we may use `CMAKE_INSTALL_LIBDIR`.
These remaining items will be addressed in further patches. What is here is now rote and so we should get it out of the way before dealing more intricately with the remainder.

Added support of a "--nvlink-path" option in clang-nvlink-wrapper which
takes the path of nvlink binary.
Static Device Library support for OpenMP (D105191) now searches for
nvlink binary and passes its location via this option. In absence
of this option, nvlink binary is searched in locations in PATH.

nvlink does not support linking of cubin files archived in an archive.
This tool extracts all the cubin files in the given device specific archive
and pass them to nvlink. It is required for linking static device libraries
for nvptx.
