build: move link flags to build.rs

Binary-specific link flags (-nostartfiles, -static, section stripping)
now use cargo:rustc-link-arg-bin so they don't break proc-macro or
build-script linking. ld-wrapper only strips sections from static
binaries.

# Invoke mold, then strip junk sections from the output binary with objcopy.
# This (more or less) removes sections that mold cannot discard itself, suck as:
# - .eh_frame / .eh_frame_hdr - unwind tables from compiler_builtins
# - dynstr - mold emits this, even for fully static binaries
# - .dynstr - mold emits this, even for fully static binaries
# - .comment - compiler version string

# We forward everything to mold via -fuse-ld, then post-process the output in place.
