Subject: [RFC][PATCH 0/1] tools/build: Let link command read option from file

From: Changqing Li <changqing.li@...driver.com>

Hi, Dear Maintainers

I am building perf with yocto project, and we don't want to put compile
object files to source folder, so pass O=xxx;

When we use a relatively long path like this:
O=/buildarea1/wrlinux-10.25/build/Virtualization/customized-WRLINUX1025_Nightly_Linux_systemd/250609-044304/lxbuilds/Harcuvar_platform_up/intel-x86-64-preempt-rt-glibc-std/wrlinux/build/tmp/work/intel_x86_64-wrs-linux/perf/1.0/perf-1.0

perf will compile failed with error:
| make[4]: /bin/sh: Argument list too long
| make[4]: *** [.../perf/1.0/perf-1.0/tools/build/Makefile.build:156: .../perf/1.0/perf-1.0/util/perf-in.o] Error 127

The error is from this line: "$(call if_changed,$(host)ld_multi)", 
Since perf have many .o, and when above long O passed,  if_changed will
evoke sh with long argument list.

So I try to fix this issue by this RFC patch. This is the first time I
touch this part, so the patch may not perfect, please help to review and
give your comments, thanks.
