Add ld_classic flag to Hermes when building for Xcode 15 (#39516)

Summary:

With Xcode15, Apple rewrote the C++ linker.
This is a breaking change that does not work with weak symbols.
As a workaround, apple is suggesting to add `-ld_classic` to the linker in order to readd support for weak symbols. The flag does not exists for Xcode 14.3 or lower, so we need to add it conditionally.

With this change, we introduce a couple of checks in the Hermes build logic:
1. Detect the version of Xcode that is used
2. Add the new flag to `HERMES_EXTRA_LINKER_FLAGS` if Xcode version is 15.

## Changelog:
[Internal] - Make hermes build properly with Xcode 15
