Subject: [PATCH 1/4] init/Kconfig: add config support for detecting linker

Similar to how we differentiate between CONFIG_CC_IS_GCC and
CONFIG_CC_IS_CLANG, add CONFIG_LD_IS_BFD, CONFIG_LD_IS_GOLD, and
CONFIG_LD_IS_LLD.

This simiplifies patches to Makefiles that need to do different things
for different linkers.
