Rollup merge of #143446 - usamoi:export-executable-symbols, r=bjorn3,oli-obk

use `--dynamic-list` for exporting executable symbols

closes #101610
cc #84161

https://sourceware.org/binutils/docs-2.39/ld/VERSION.html:

> --dynamic-list=dynamic-list-file
Specify the name of a dynamic list file to the linker. This is typically used when creating shared libraries to specify a list of global symbols whose references shouldn’t be bound to the definition within the shared library, or creating dynamically linked executables to specify a list of symbols which should be added to the symbol table in the executable. This option is only meaningful on ELF platforms which support shared libraries.

`ld.lld --help`:

>   --dynamic-list=<file>: Similar to --export-dynamic-symbol-list. When creating a shared object, this additionally implies -Bsymbolic but does not set DF_SYMBOLIC

>  --export-dynamic-symbol-list=file: Read a list of dynamic symbol patterns. Apply --export-dynamic-symbol on each pattern

>  --export-dynamic-symbol=glob: (executable) Put matched symbols in the dynamic symbol table. (shared object) References to matched non-local STV_DEFAULT symbols shouldn't be bound to definitions within the shared object. Does not imply -Bsymbolic.

>  --export-dynamic: Put symbols in the dynamic symbol table

Use `--dynamic-list` because it's older than `--export-dynamic-symbol-list` (binutils 2.35)
