In GNU ld, this option is enabled by default, but can be set
to reduce some warnings.
For lld, ignore the flag (for now); in case linking still succeeds
everything should be fine, if not, it should be clear to the user
what part failed (possibly requiring adjusting the user project
to not rely on this feature), instead of straight out failing due to
an unknown flag.

Previously, the COFF driver would call exit(0) when called
as a library. Now it takes `ExitEarly` option, and if it
is false, it doesn't exit. So it is now more library-friendly.
Furthermore, link() calls freeArena() before returning, to
clean up resources.
Based on an Andrew Kelley's patch.

GNU ld manual says that multi-letter long option can be prefixed with
either -- or -. Therefore, we should accept not only --subsystem but
also -subsystem, for example.
There is one exception. If an option starts with "o", it should only be
prefixed with -- to avoid ambiguity with -o<filename> option.

Arg instances can be claimed. After claimed, its `isClaimed` function
returns true. We do not use that notion in lld, so using NoClaim
versions of functions is just confusing. This patch is to just use
hasArg instead of hasArgNoClaim.

There are no alises handled by this switch, but getUnaliasesdOption is
preferred way of doing this. This is also consistent with ELF and COFF.

This is how the flag is documented in GNU binutils ld; -Bstatic
only applies to -l options after it, until the next -Bdynamic.

In MinGW configurations (GCC, or clang with a *-windows-gnu target),
the -export directives in the object file contains the undecorated
symbol name, while it is decorated in MSVC configurations. (On the
command line, link.exe takes an undecorated symbol name for the
-export argument though.)

On i386, the --entry parameter to GNU ld is supposed to be a decorated
symbol name, while it is an undecorated name in link.exe.

We do not use "Shim" as a name of MinGW driver, so rename it MinGW.
I don't think the former dependency list was correct. MinGW driver
depends on COFF.

This adds support for passing LTO flags to the MINGW driver
in GNU LD style i.e. -mllvm flag -> /mllvm:flag

If the sysroot parameter is passed to the clang frontend, clang
already uses it to find libraries and adds -L options for it, but
also passes it on to the linker. Therefore we can get pretty far
by just ignoring it altogether.

Pass the -verbose option through to the COFF linker, and show the
arguments passed to it. If the -### option is specified, just show
the produced argument list and exit, just like in clang.
Replace the first argument with "lld-link" in order to produce a
correct command line.

Summary:
In addition to removing a few global variables and functions, I believe
this patch improves code readability a bit in general.

When building COFF programs many targets such as mingw prefer
to have a gnu ld frontend. Rather then having a fully fledged
standalone driver we wrap a shim around the LINK driver.
