Dear Maintainer,

as requested in https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=631178
, it would be nice to provide a symlink for LLVMgold.so in
/usr/lib/bfd-plugins . Gcc does it for their plugin
(https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=865690). It would let
tools like nm, ar, etc understand LTO files automatically.

/tmp $ clang e.c -flto -c
/tmp $ file e.o
e.o: LLVM IR bitcode
/tmp $ nm e.o
nm: e.o: file format not recognized

[adding the symlink]

/tmp $ nm e.o
00000000 T main

Changes:
 llvm-toolchain-13 (1:13.0.1~+rc1-1~exp2) experimental; urgency=medium
 .
   * Bring back the dependency clang => llvm-13-linker-tools
   * Unbreak llvm-toolchain-13 on buster.
     -fuse-ld=gold wasn't passed to compiler-rt. it was using bfd.
     And binutils shipping in buster has a bug preventing this to work:
https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/issues/42339
   * Remove AVR from LLVM_EXPERIMENTAL_TARGETS_TO_BUILD. stable since 11
https://releases.llvm.org/11.0.0/docs/ReleaseNotes.html#changes-to-the-avr-target
   * Use the version suffix when calling wasm-ld => wasm-ld-13
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1747145
   * Fix run-clang-tidy symlink. it moved from /usr/lib/llvm-13/share/clang/run-clang-tidy
     to /usr/lib/llvm-13/bin/run-clang-tidy
     (Closes: #1001748)
   * Install LLVMgold in usr/lib/bfd-plugins to help various tools to understand the
     format (Closes: #919020)
