RFR: 8330261: Clean up linking steps

Instead of executing code directly in Link.gmk, we set variables that are then evaluated to get the code we want. This is non-transparent and makes it unnecessarily hard to work with the linking code base. 

This PR also contains some additional code cleanup/fixes.
