Merge commit 93a67259cf23 from llvm git (by ShengYi Hung):

  [ToolChains][FreeBSD] Set default Linker to LLD for FreeBSD (#190596)

  When the linker is specified as ld, toolchain applies special handling
  by invoking (triple)-ld instead of resolving ld via standard PATH
  lookup. This causes GNU ld installed via the system package manager to
  take the precedence (since (triple)-ld appears earlier in the search
  path), effectively overriding ld.lld.

  As a result, we set the default Linker on FreeBSD to ld.lld to indicate
  we want to use lld by default.
