cmd/cgo: use --no-gc-sections if available
zig cc passes `--gc-sections` to the underlying linker, which then
causes undefined symbol errors when compiling with cgo but without C
code. Add `-Wl,--no-gc-sections` to make it work with zig cc. Minimal
example:
**main.go**
package main
import _ "runtime/cgo"
func main() {}
Run (works after the patch, doesn't work before):
CC="zig cc" go build main.go
Among the existing code, `src/runtime/testdata/testprognet` fails to
build:
src/runtime/testdata/testprognet$ CC="zig cc" go build .

With the patch both examples build as expected.
@ianlancetaylor suggested:

passes -Wl,--no-gc-sections, with a fallback if that option is not
supported.
... and this is what we are doing. Tested with zig
