configure: Allow LD to be LLD 13.0.0 or above [BZ #26558]
When using LLD (LLVM linker) as the linker, configure prints a confusing message. *** These critical programs are missing or too old: GNU ld LLD>=13.0.0 can build glibc --enable-static-pie. (8.0.0 needs one workaround for -Wl,-defsym=_begin=0. 9.0.0 works with --disable-static-pie). XFAIL two tests sysdeps/x86/tst-ifunc-isa-* which have the BZ #28154 issue (LLD follows the PowerPC port of GNU ld for ifunc by placing IRELATIVE relocations in .rela.dyn, triggering a glibc ifunc fragility). The set of dynamic symbols is the same with GNU ld and LLD, modulo unused SHN_ABS version node symbols. For comparison, gold does not support --enable-static-pie yet (--no-dynamic-linker is unsupported BZ #22221), yet has 6 failures more than LLD. gold linked libc.so has larger .dynsym differences with GNU ld and LLD (non-default version symbols are changed to default versions by a version script BZ #28196).
