do not use gold linker by default

We have been detecting the existence of the gold linker and
automatically try to use it. This PR removes this for the following
reasons:
1. gold linker is now deprecated,
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/info-gnu/2025-02/msg00001.html
2. it sometimes breaks linking, especially with MPI
3. lld and especially mold are much better

In the beginning the Universe was created. This has made a lot of people very angry and has been widely regarded as a bad move.
