Auto merge of #68623 - Zoxc:lld, r=Mark-Simulacrum

Add an option to use LLD to link the compiler on Windows platforms

Based on https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/pull/68609.

Using LLD is good way to improve compile times on Windows since `link.exe` is quite slow. The time for `x.py build --stage 1 src/libtest` goes from 0:12:00 to 0:08:29. Compile time for `rustc_driver` goes from 226.34s to 18.5s. `rustc_macros` goes from 28.69s to 7.7s. The size of `rustc_driver` is also reduced from 83.3 MB to 78.7 MB.
