Switch to llvm-ar
llvm-ar is required for platform LTO build.
With GNU ar, we used crsPD flags, however 'P' flag is not supported by
llvm-ar. Since none of the platform archive files are built using third
party AR, the 'P' flag should not matter to us. However we've been
relying on one side-effect of 'P', where 'ar foo.a some/path/to/obj.o'
when foo.a already has a file named 'obj.o' will be an append operation,
regardless whether the existing one is the same (ar has no way of
telling the difference). We workaround this by always appending ('q'
flag) for llvm-ar. This may result in larger intermediate archive files
(more duplication) but will not affect the final build result.
