Remove llvm-ld and llvm-stub (which is only used by llvm-ld).

llvm-ld is no longer useful and causes confusion and so it is being removed.

* Does not work very well on Windows because it must call a gcc like driver to
  assemble and link.
* Has lots of hard coded paths which are wrong on many systems.
* Does not understand most of ld's options.
* Can be partially replaced by llvm-link | opt | {llc | as, llc -filetype=obj} |
  ld, or fully replaced by Clang.

I know of no production use of llvm-ld, and hacking use should be
replaced by Clang's driver.

<p>LLVM provides a wide variety of optimizations that can be used in certain

passes</a> is available, but it isn't very complete. Another good source of
ideas can come from looking at the passes that <tt>llvm-gcc</tt> or
<tt>llvm-ld</tt> run to get started. The "<tt>opt</tt>" tool allows you to
experiment with passes from the command line, so you can see if they do
anything.</p>

<p>Now that we have reasonable code coming out of our front-end, lets talk about
executing it!</p>
