Not waiting for rc3 or final from llvm because the issue is pretty severe

As described in c2b5cf7bde83, it is still preferable to build with BFD
ld when doing clang LTO, and one of the reasons we defaulted to lld in
the first place is that we didn't have the LLVM gold plugin on
automation, which, as of bug 1488307, we now have.

At least, when that combination doesn't work. This requires passing the
LTO flags to the compiler invocations for the test, which in turn
requires actually calling the linker directly on Windows, instead of
directly through the compiler, as when actually building.

As much as it's tempting to use LLD for LTO, it still causes some
subtle problems with the build, and it's still better to keep using
BFD ld for the time being. Doing so requires the gold plugin, which
only requires to pass cmake the directory where the binutils headers
are, and they are part of the gcc toolchain headers.

Back before expandlibs was removed in bug 1429875, not using list files
was supported, but nowadays, it just leads to errors like the following:
*** No rule to make target 'libfake_so.list', needed by 'libfake.so'. Stop.
We might as well error out during configure, rather than much later
during the build.

All the Linux builds using GCC uses the binutils bundled with GCC. This
gives us some leeway to update the binutils used for clang builds (using
the binutils toolchain as of bug 1486998) separately.
Since we only ship builds using GCC, we're more free to upgrade
binutils for clang builds, without worrying about the next merge.
This upgrades to the last released version of binutils, and applies the
patch from https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=23591 on top,
so that asan fuzzing builds don't fail.
The GPG key used to sign the upstream tarball is unfortunately not
connected to the web of trust. I verified the contents matched what's in
the Debian archive (which has a different tarball, because some files
are removed/modified in Debian for license reasons ; there were no
differences besides those).

Last time it was updated is bug 1436208, and the crashes we patched it
for back then has been fixed upstream a few months later.
For some reason, they renamed the executable from llvm-dsymutil to
dsymutil.

Those mozconfigs do things in common that are already in
mozconfig.linux. Let's just use that.
This will make the build have the binutils toolchain in PATH rather than
passing it to CC/CXX, which is better because it also makes the build
use tools such as ar, ranlib, objcopy from the binutils toolchain,
rather than the old system ones.

With patches from other bugs in place to use the right C compiler and cflags,
we can enable geckodriver on cross-compiles for macOS.

The x86 linux builds originally were performed in x86 build environment.
That was a long time ago. Since then, they moved to x86-64 hosts with
x86 headers and libraries. But for reasons that might have to do with
the build system not really supporting cross-compilation nicely back
then, the build is still explicitly passing both --host and --target,
making those builds non-cross builds.
Since the toolchains used to build are for x86-64, the fact that --host
is for x86 actually prevents enabling the clang plugin, so we need to
turn these builds in actual cross builds if we want to enable the clang
plugin.

This setup seems to work well enough to enable me to link
HOST_SIMPLE_PROGRAMS with an AArch64-cross setup. Necessary library
paths are passed to the linker via -LIBPATH and HOST_LDFLAGS rather than
letting MSVC fish them out of the environment. The change to
HOST_SIMPLE_PROGRAMS to pass HOST_LDFLAGS was necessary for this to
work, in addition to the HOST_LINKER changes.
