    Darwin: Fix empty g++ command lines [PR105599].

    An empty g++ command line should produce a diagnostic that there are no
    inputs.  The PR is that currently Darwin produces a dignostic about missing
    link items instead - this is because (errnoeously), for this driver, we are
    creating a link job for empty command lines.

    The problem occurs in four stages:

     The g++ driver appends -shared-libgcc to the command line.

     The Darwin driver_init code in the backend does not see this (it sees an
     empty command line).

     When the back end driver code driver sees an empty command line, it does
not
     add any supplementary flags (e.g. asm-macosx-version-min) - precisely to
     avoid anything being claimed as an input_file and therefore triggering a
link
     line.

     Since we do not have a value for asm-macosx-version-min when processing
the
     driver specs, we unconditionally inject 'multiply_defined suppress' which
is
     used with shared libgcc (but only intended on very old Darwin).  This then
     causes the generation of a link job.

    The solution, for the present, is to move version-specific link params to
the
    LINK_SPEC so that they are only processed when a link job has already been
    decided.
