## Message

```
stage2: remove extra_lld_args

This mechanism for sending arbitrary linker args to LLD has no place in
the Zig frontend, because our goal is for the frontend to understand all
the arguments and not treat linker args like a black box.

For example we have self-hosted linking in addition to LLD, so we want to
have the options make sense to both linking codepaths, not just the LLD one.

Passing -O linker args will now result in a warning that the arg does
nothing.

```
