Make bsd.linker.mk work with the MacOS linker

[arichardson]

Summary

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
warning messages.

Were it not for the weird exit value, you could do this more simply as ld <blah> --version || ld <blah> -v || echo none.

I'm surprised that 'head' results in an exit of 141 though. Is head returning that?

LD can print more than one line and head exits after the first line has been printed so it dies with a pipe closed error.

This is only a problem when changing the bmake shell to use -o pipefail, so I can remove it if you prefer.

simplify and rebase

Is there anything we'd do differently based on mac linker version?

I doubt the version matters, but we could avoid adding ld.bfd/ld.lld specific flags during bootstrapping.
There currently aren't any, but that might change (and silencing the warnings is quite useful).

Yeah, it's specifically the version I'm wondering about, although I suppose it would be just as strange to detect macos linker and use a fake version (e.g. 0.0.0)

This version looks good to me.
