[libc++] Simplify the conditions for generating a linker script (#73151)

We really shouldn't be depending on far away configuration options like
LLVM_HAVE_LINK_VERSION_SCRIPT here. This patch simplifies the enablement
of the linker scripts and as a result gets rid of an undesirable
dependency on HandleLLVMOptions.cmake.

As a drive-by, the patch also stops taking into account whether Python3
is available. This should have no bearing on whether we generate a
linker script or not, which is required for correctness. If someone
tries to build libc++ and generate a linker script but Python3 is not
available, they should get an error instead of silently getting an
incorrect installation of the library.

The LLVM Compiler Infrastructure

OpenSSF Scorecard

Welcome to the LLVM project!

This repository contains the source code for LLVM, a toolkit for the construction of highly optimized compilers, optimizers, and run-time environments.

The LLVM project has multiple components. The core of the project is itself called “LLVM”. This contains all of the tools, libraries, and header files needed to process intermediate representations and convert them into object files. Tools include an assembler, disassembler, bitcode analyzer, and bitcode optimizer.

C-like languages use the Clang frontend. This component compiles C, C++, Objective-C, and Objective-C++ code into LLVM bitcode -- and from there into object files, using LLVM.

Other components include: the libc++ C++ standard library, the LLD linker, and more.

Getting the Source Code and Building LLVM

Consult the Getting Started with LLVM page for information on building and running LLVM.
