Silent links fail

[hypernewbie]

Links fails silently without ability to spit out any errors or search process.
Need much more verbose logging in general so user can know what's going on.

Repro:

• Add a C++ solution + project
• links { "asdf_random_library_that_doesnt_exist" }
• build VS2022

Expected behaviour:

Error: asdf_random_library_that_doesnt_exist not found
Generation failed

Actual behaviour:

Building configurations...
Running action 'vs2022'...
Done. Generated 0/7 projects.

I just found the actual underlying issue;

It seems that links{} only works from executable type projects. StaticLib type projects do not seem to support links{} at all, and it silently ignores it.
