Documentation/llvm: refresh docs
Recent fixes for an embargoed hardware security vulnerability failed to link with ld.lld (LLVM's linker). [0] To be fair, our documentation mentions ``CC=clang`` foremost with ``LLVM=1`` being buried "below the fold." We want to encourage the use of ``LLVM=1`` rather than just ``CC=clang``. Make that suggestion "above the fold" and "front and center" in our docs. While here, the following additional changes were made: - remove the bit about CROSS_COMPILE setting --target=, that's no longer true. - Add ARCH=loongarch to the list of maintained targets (though we're still working on getting defconfig building cleanly at the moment; we're pretty close). - Bump ARCH=powerpc from CC=clang to LLVM=1 status. - Promote ARCH=riscv from being Maintained to being Supported. Android is working towards supporting RISC-V, and we have excellent support from multiple companies in this regard. - Note that the toolchain distribution on kernel.org has been built with profile data from kernel builds. - Note how to use ccache with clang.
