build: remove linking librt for backwards compatibility
Now that we require glibc 2.17+, #17538, we can remove linking in librt for backwards compatibility purposes. The clock_* functions from librt were merged into glibc as part of the 2.17 release. * The `clock_*' suite of functions (declared in <time.h>) is now available directly in the main C library. Previously it was necessary to link with -lrt to use these functions. This change has the effect that a single-threaded program that uses a function such as `clock_gettime' (and is not linked with -lrt) will no longer implicitly load the pthreads library at runtime and so will not suffer the overheads associated with multi-thread support in other code such as the C++ runtime library. https://sourceware.org/ml/libc-announce/2012/msg00001.html Note that librt is already not linked by the RISC-V and AARCH64 binaries.
