Rollup merge of #106489 - jschwe:fix_linker_detection, r=petrochenkov

Fix linker detection for linker (drivers) with a version postfix (e.g. clang-12 instead of clang)

Linker (drivers) such as clang / gcc or lld often have a version postfix matching the regex "-\d+$".
Previously, linker detection did not account for the possible version postfix and the fallback value was used, which can cause linker errors due to wrong arguments.
Also remove the check for `-clang`, since there are no architecture specific variants of clang (to my knowledge).

Fixes #106454
