Strip dead code when linking by default with BFD ld (linux, ...) and ld64 (os x).

This reduces the size of clang-format from 22 MB to 1.8 MB, diagtool goes from
21 MB to 2.8 MB, libclang.so goes from 29 MB to 20 MB, etc.  The size of the
bin/ folder shrinks from 270 MB to 200 MB.

Targets that support plugins and don't already use EXPORTED_SYMBOL_FILE
(which libclang and libLTO already do) can set NO_DEAD_STRIP to opt out.
