cmd/link: return correct default linker for the platform

If no external linker was passed with -extld, link currently assumes
that it is "gcc" which is not correct for platforms that use clang
toolchain. Return "clang" for platforms that use it, this fixes dir
tests on freebsd/riscv64.

For #53466
