Make musl ld have a common name

Description

Currently the gcc patch used for musl defines different names for the ld program for each arch and even sub-arch (like armhf vs armeb vs arm). This is annoying and results in needing many symlinks to point the properly named ld to libc.so since musl's ld is within libc.so.

I'm not sure why different names for each ld are used, possibly for multilib-like use, but when not building multilib and for a specific target this seems like extra complexity.

Fix would be done within the gcc patch for musl and then updating the symlinks listed in cross-tools/common/libc.xml.

This can be merged into #947, so closing as won't fix. This concept is the wrong one to take.
