Enable lld for windows

Bug: http://b/110800681

The following flags that the binutils linkers support are not available
in lld for Windows:
  -soname
  --no-undefined
  -rpath

Windows also uses "import libraries", which are stub libraries used only
for linking.  The binutils linkers accepted a DLL and treated them as an
import library.  But lld issues the following error:

  lld-link: error: ...DLL: bad file type. Did you specify a DLL instead
  of an import library?

To resolve this, pass '-out-implib=libFoo.a' to lld when linking
libFoo.dll.  Add libFoo.a as an implicit output to the 'ld' build rule.

Rewrite the shared libraries for a library/binary to use the import
library instead of the DLL.  As a side-effect, this also (correctly)
uses the AdbWinApi.a that's alongside
development/host/windows/prebuilt/usb/AdbWinApi.dll

Test: Run Windows tests (go/android-llvm-windows-testing) and check
absence of regressions.
