[PATCH] Do not redirect ld stdout/stderr in collect2 with -debug

[Richard Biener]

This fixes one very annoying thing collect2 does when trying to
debug LTO WPA issues.  Even with -v you need to wait until all
LTRANS stages completed to see the lto1 -fwpa invocation which
is because collect2 buffers and replays stdout/stderr of ld
(to avoid duplicating that in some cases).  But I really want
to see the output immediately but there is no way to do that.
The easiest is to disable the buffering with -debug (that is,
-Wl,-debug to the -flto driver command line).

Tested with/without -debug.

Ok for trunk?

Thanks,
Richard.
