Adds support for LTO on macOS and Android.
Disable LTO by default on iOS even if `production=yes` is set.
Also add `linker` option to `server` platform missed in #63283.
Refactor code handling old arguments to make it simpler (breaks compat,
but is explicit enough about it and scripts are easy to fix).
The new option is `linker` and lets the user specify the argument to
the`-fuse_ld=` linker flag directly. The supported options are:
- `default`: No change, typically uses GNU ld (bfd) unless the user or
distro picked a different default `/usr/bin/ld`.
- `bfd`: GNU ld from binutils
- `gold`: GNU gold from binutils
- `lld`: lld from LLVM
- `mold`: mold, an extremely fast modern linker, not (yet) intended for
use in production but great for development speed. Provided by distro
`mold` package or needs to be compiled from source and installed to
`/usr` otherwise.
Deprecates the `use_lld=yes` option, and make lld actually usable with
GCC too.
Not all the above are compatible or recommend for LTO, we recommend
using GNU ld with GCC LTO, or lld with LLVM ThinLTO.

It's not needed on most distros as those are found in standard lib
and include paths, but on NixOS they're all in non-standard prefixes,
so we need to rely on information provided by pkg-config.
Fixes#59913.
