For IntelLLVM, linking with the compiler driver is preferred over using
the linker directly. This is especially true when doing offload to a
target accelerator, which can produce object files that the regular
linker will not handle properly.
Windows-IntelLLVM relies on Windows-MSVC.cmake for many definitions.
This commit does not change that, but does override the MSVC defaults
for linking executables, shared libraries, and static libraries so that
CMake will use the compiler driver instead of the linker.

Using a single ID 'IntelLLVM' for the suite of Intel compilers based on
the LLVM backend. The 'IntelLLVM' ID are used for C, C++, and Fortran.
Data Parallel C++ will be handled in a separate commit.
The C and C++ definitions are based on the Clang definitions. The Intel
LLVM-based C and C++ compilers are based on the Clang front end, so
existing Clang options are more likely to be a good match than options
for the older Intel compilers.
Fortran is based on the older Fortran front end with the LLVM backend.
It has a similar interface to the older versions, though many options
are shared with the C and C++ compilers.
