  1. bootstrap: Link LLVM as a dylib with ThinLTO

    When building a distributed compiler on Linux where we use ThinLTO to
    create the LLVM shared object this commit switches the compiler to
    dynamically linking that LLVM artifact instead of statically linking to
    LLVM. The primary goal here is to reduce CI compile times, avoiding two+
    ThinLTO builds of all of LLVM. By linking dynamically to LLVM we'll
    reuse the one ThinLTO step done by LLVM's build itself.
    
    Lots of discussion about this change can be found [here] and down. A
    perf run will show whether this is worth it or not!
