In the GNU toolchain, `-static-libgcc` implies that the unwindlib will
be linked statically. However, when `--unwindlib=libunwind`, this flag is
ignored, and a bare `-lunwind` is added to the linker args. Unfortunately,
this means that if both `libunwind.so`, and `libunwind.a` are present
in the library path, `libunwind.so` will be chosen in all cases where
`-static` is not set.
This change makes `-static-libgcc` affect the `-l` flag produced by
`--unwindlib=libunwind`. After this patch, providing
`-static-libgcc --unwindlib=libunwind` will cause the driver to explicitly
emit `-l:libunwind.a` to statically link libunwind. For all other cases
it will emit `-l:libunwind.so` matching current behavior with a more
explicit link line.

"clang++ hello.cc --rtlib=compiler-rt"
now can works without specifying additional unwind or exception
handling libraries.
This reworked version of the feature no longer modifies today's default
unwind library for compiler-rt: which is nothing. Rather, a user
can specify -DCLANG_DEFAULT_UNWINDLIB=libunwind when configuring
the compiler.
This should address the issues from the previous version.
Update tests for new --unwindlib semantics.
