Improve link times on Windows by using LLD for linking

Currently the Windows CI builds are typically lasting over 3 hours. The primary cause of this appears to be poor performance in ld.bfd, especially when linking testsuite tests.

One option to fix this is to try using LLD for linking. Unfortunately the msys2 gcc does not support -fuse-ld=lld.
