[PATCH 3/3] configure: Allow LD to be LLD 13.0.0 or above

[Fangrui Song <maskray@google.com>]

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).
