#4862: Enable usage of gold linker with GHC

The Gold linker is much faster than GNU ld, so it would speed up Haskell
compile times if it could be used with GHC. Unfortunately, GHC currently
passes some linker options that gold does not recognize. If there is no
fundamental incompatibility, this would be a useful feature.
