Clang toolchain type should not be bound with LLD

Hi! Welcome to OpenJDK!

I believe clang being forced to use lld is by design, in
https://github.com/openjdk/jdk/pull/19456 this was done to make handling of
command lines easier in the build system. Changing this to be flexible is
probably still possible, but will involve some more work than just removing
-fuse-ld=lld. Additionally, the OpenJDK build system does not typically use
special variables that configure picks up- A configure option is encouraged
instead

Thanks for coming to OpenJDK, and I hope you enjoy your stay here! :)

best regards,
Julian
