basically we would need something like "linker_GNU", since all Prefix
arches have userland_GNU set to true

at some point we did stuff like grepping for GNU in ld -v output, but
that's expensive, and it makes probably more sense to do some CHOST
matches with known configurations then, handling the obvious cases
(--{no-,}as-needed etc.)
