Rollup merge of #113631 - lqd:fix-113597, r=petrochenkov
make MCP510 behavior opt-in to avoid conflicts between the CLI and target flavors

Fixes #113597, which contains more details on how this happens through the code, and showcases an unexpected `Gnu(Cc::Yes, Lld::Yes)` flavor.

#112910 added support to use `lld` when the flavor requests it, but didn't explicitly do so only when using `-Clink-self-contained=+linker` or one of the unstable `-Clinker-flavor`s.

The problem: some targets have a `lld` linker and flavor, e.g. `thumbv6m-none-eabi` from that issue. Users can override the linker but there are no linker flavors precise enough to describe the linker opting out of lld: when using `-Clinker=arm-none-eabi-gcc`, we infer this is a `Cc::Yes` linker flavor, but the `lld` component is unknown and therefore defaulted to the target's linker flavor, `Lld::Yes`.

<details>
<summary>Walkthrough of how this happens</summary>

The linker flavor used is a mix between what can be inferred from the CLI (`-C linker`) and the target's default linker flavor:

- there is no linker flavor on the CLI (and that also offers another workaround on nightly: `-C linker-flavor=gnu-cc -Zunstable-options`), so it will have to be inferred [from here](https://github.com/lqd/rust/blob/5dac6b320be868f898a3c753934eabc79ff2e406/compiler/rustc_codegen_ssa/src/back/link.rs#L1334-L1336) to [here](https://github.com/lqd/rust/blob/5dac6b320be868f898a3c753934eabc79ff2e406/compiler/rustc_codegen_ssa/src/back/link.rs#L1321-L1327).
- in [`infer_linker_hints`](https://github.com/lqd/rust/blob/5dac6b320be868f898a3c753934eabc79ff2e406/compiler/rustc_target/src/spec/mod.rs#L320-L352) `-C linker=arm-none-eabi-gcc` infers a `Some(Cc::Yes)` cc hint, and no hint about lld.
- the target's `linker_flavor` is combined in `with_cli_hints` with these hints. We have our `Cc::Yes`, but there is no hint about lld, [so the target's flavor `lld` component is used](https://github.com/lqd/rust/blob/5dac6b320be868f898a3c753934eabc79ff2e406/compiler/rustc_target/src/spec/mod.rs#L356-L358). It's [`Gnu(Cc::No, Lld::Yes)`](https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/blob/993deaa0bf8bab9dd3eadfd1fbeb093328e95afe/compiler/rustc_target/src/spec/thumb_base.rs#L35).
- so we now have our `Gnu(Cc::Yes, Lld::Yes)` flavor

</details>

This results in a `Gnu(Cc::Yes, Lld::Yes)` flavor on a non-lld linker, causing an additional unexpected `-fuse-ld=lld` argument to be passed.

I don't know if this target defaulting to `rust-lld` is expected, but until MCP510's new linker flavor are stable, when people will be able to describe their linker/flavor accurately, this PR keeps the stable behavior of not doing anything when the linker/flavor on the CLI unexpectedly conflict with the target's.

I've tested this on a `no_std` `-C linker=arm-none-eabi-gcc -C link-arg=-nostartfiles --target thumbv6m-none-eabi` example, trying to simulate one of `cortex-m`'s test mentioned in issue #113597 (I don't know how to build a local complete  `thumbv6m-none-eabi` toolchain to run the exact test), and checked that `-fuse-lld` was indeed gone and the error disappeared.
