Log:
  lld: make -v behave similarly to GNU ld.bfd
  
  Previously, lld exited with an error status if the only option given to
  the command was -v. GNU linkers gracefully exit in that case. This patch
  makes lld behave like GNU.
  
  Note that even with this patch, lld's -v and --version options behave
  slightly differently than GNU linkers' counterparts. For example,
  if you run ld.bfd -v -v, the version string is printed out twice.
  But that is an edge case that I don't think we need to take care of.
