It's the common convention for the tool syntax that `lld-link` is emulating.  
It's consistent with the MSVC driver in Clang. That makes it easier to compare 
link lines between the two backends, for example.

It's also possible that the UEFI backend could be made to work with the MSVC 
linker instead of LLD as with the MSVC backend (if anyone cared to wire it up 
with `-fuse-ld=`), and I'm not sure MSVC accepts both forms.
