rustbuild: update the llvm link logic further

There are now four static/shared scenarios that can happen for the
supported LLVM versions:

- 3.9+: By default use `llvm-config --link-static`
- 3.9+ and `--enable-llvm-link-shared`: Use `--link-shared` instead.
- 3.8: Use `llvm-config --shared-mode` and go with its answer.
- 3.7: Just assume static, maintaining the status quo.
