Subject: [PATCH] Support fully static linking on *nix targets

It adds the proper linker argument for static result objects to `Linker`
and implements them for `GnuLinker` and `MsvcLinker`. Additionally, when
statically linking, all the objects are linked in a group (-Wl,-( and -Wl,-)
on GNU-compatible linkers) to resolve dependency and order issues that may
normally arise. For `MsvcLinker`, this is a no-op as it already exhibits
this behavior by default.

Finally, if no linking preference is given for native libraries
(`NativeLibraryKind::NativeUnknown`), they are linked statically if full
static linking is requested, instead of dynamically as before.
