bpf: do not invoke lld when linking eBPF relocatables

Due to a deficiency in LLD, we need to special-case BPF to a simple
file copy when generating relocatables. Normally, we would expect
`lld -r` to work. However, because LLD wants to resolve BPF relocations
which it shouldn't, it fails before even generating the relocatable.
