I noticed that when we build libraries for a different ABI (in CheriBSD) we
were calling ${XCC}/${LD} --version for every directory. It turns out that
this was caused by bsd.compat.mk explicitly setting (X_)COMPILER variables
for that build stage and this stops the _can_export logic from working.
To fix this, we change the check to only set _can_export=no if the variable
is set and it is set to a different value than the cached value.
This noticeably speeds up the tree walk while building compat libraries.
During an upstream amd64 buildworld this also removes 8 --version calls.

This is not strictly required for crossbuilding but having lots of warnings
from bsd.linker.mk in the output was making it hard to see the actual

When the linker doesn't have this feature, add -mno-relax to CFLAGS
on RISC-V.
Define the feature for ld.bfd, but not lld. If lld gains relaxation
support in a newer version, we can enable it for those versions of lld
in bsd.linker.mk.

By using '__' instead of '.' as the separator we can also support systems
that use dash as /bin/sh (it's the default shell on Ubuntu/Debian). Dash
will unset any environment variables that use a non alphanumeric+undedscore
character and therefore submakes will fail to import the COMPILER_*
variables if we use '.' as the separator.

And build libdl unconditionally. All supported FreeBSD linkers accept

When building CheriBSD we have to set XLD/XCC/XCFLAGS on the command line.
This triggers the $XCC != $CC case in bsd.compiler.mk (and the same for LD
in bsd.linker.mk) which causes it to call ${XCC} --version and
${XLD} --version (plus various awk+sed+echo calls) in every subdirectory.
For incremental builds and stages that only walk the source tree this is
often the majority of the time spent in that directory.
By only computing the value of the X_COMPILER_*/X_LINKER_* variables if
_WANT_TOOLCHAIN_CROSS_VARS is set we can reduce the number of cc/ld calls
to once per build stage instead of once per recursive make.
With this change (and no changes to the sources) the `make includes` stage
now takes 28 seconds at -j1 instead of 86 seconds.

This works similar to WITH_SYSTEM_COMPILER added in r300354. It only
supports lld via WITH_LLD_BOOTSTRAP.
When both SYSTEM_COMPILER and SYSTEM_LINKER logic passes then libclang
will not build in cross-tools. If either check fails though then
libclang is built.
The .info is reworked to notify when libclang will be built since if
either clang or lld needs to be rebuilt, but not the other, the
notification can lead to confusion on why "clang is building".
-fuse-ld= is not used with this method so some combinations of compiler
and linker are expected to fail.
A new 'make test-system-linker' target is added to see the logic results.
Makefile.inc1:
CROSS_BINUTILS_PREFIX support had to be moved higher up so that XLD
could be set and MK_LLD_BOOTSTRAP disabled before checking SYSTEM_LINKER
logic as done with SYSTEM_COMPILER. This also required moving where
bsd.linker.mk was read since XLD needs to be set before parsing it. This
creates a situation where src.opts.mk can not test LINKER_FEATURES or
add LLD_BOOTSTAP to BROKEN_OPTIONS.

As of r333461 we require ifunc support to link a working amd64 kernel.
The default in-tree bootstrap linker is lld and it has the required
support, as does any modern out-of-tree binutils linker. The in-tree
GNU ld is from binutils 2.17.50 and it does not have ifunc support,
so produce an error rather than a broken kernel.

Create libdl.so.1 as a filter for libc.so.7 which exports public dl*
functions. The functions are resolved from the rtld instead, the goal
of creating library is to avoid errors from the static linker due to
missed libdl. For static binaries, an empty .o is compiled into
libdl.a so that static binaries still get dl stubs from libc.a.
Right now lld cannot create filter objects, disable libdl on arm64
when binutils are not used.

In some cases bsd.linker.mk reports an error like:
make[4]: ".../share/mk/bsd.linker.mk" line 56:
Unknown linker from LD=ld -m elf32ppc_fbsd:"
For now change this to a .warning, and then assume GNU ld 2.17.50.
At present the linker type detection is used only for enabling build-id,
and we can carry on without it when type detection fails.
Also, show errors from ${LD} --version to aid in failure diagnosis.
Successful invocations of ${LD} --version produce no output on stderr
so this will not create any spam in non-failing builds.
