Three related changes:
1. link.exe uses the presence of main and wmain to decide if it should call
mainCRTStartup or wmainCRTStartup, even if /nodefaultlib is passed. For
compatibility, remove FindMain logic.
2. Default to the non-wide entrypoint if main is not found. This has two effects:
2a. In normal links, lld-link now prints
lld-link: error: undefined symbol: _main
>>> referenced by f:\dd\vctools\crt\vcstartup\src\startup\exe_common.inl:78
>>> libcmt.lib(exe_main.obj):("int __cdecl invoke_main(void)" (?invoke_main@@YAHXZ))
>>> referenced by f:\dd\vctools\crt\vcstartup\src\startup\exe_common.inl:283
>>> libcmt.lib(exe_main.obj):("int __cdecl __scrt_common_main_seh(void)" (?__scrt_common_main_seh@@YAHXZ))
instead of
lld-link: error: entry point must be defined
This is arguably a better error message, since it now mentions that _main is
missing. (This matches link.exe's diagnostic in this case.)
2b. With /nodefautlib, we now default to mainCRTStartup if no main() is
present, again matching link.exe. This makes r337407 obsolete.
This means if you have a cc file containing both mainCRTStartup and
wmainCRTStartup and you pass /nodefaultlib /subsystem:console, lld-link will
now call mainCRTStartup, matching link.exe
3. Print a warning if both main and wmain are present, similar to link.exe's
LNK4067.

I believe the reason why we used warn() instead of error() to report
undefined symbols is because the older implementation of error() exitted
immediately. Here, we want to find as many undefined symbols as we can,
so I chose to use warn() instead of error().
Now error() does not exit immediately, so it doesn't make sense to keep
them as warnings.

`main` is not the only main function in Windows. You can choose one
from these four -- {w,}{WinMain,main}. There are four different entry
point functions for them, {w,}{WinMain,main}CRTStartup, respectively.
The linker needs to choose the right one depending on which `main`
function is defined.
