cmd/link/internal/ld: clean tmpdir obj timestamps

This patch changes the Go linker to "clean" (reset to Unix epoch) the
timestamps on object files copied to the tmpdir that is presented to
the external linker or archive tool. The intent is to improve build
reproducibility on Darwin, where later versions of xcode seem to want
to incorporate object file timestamps into the hash used for the final
build ID (which precludes the possibility of having reproducible Go
builds). Credit for this idea goes to Cherry (see
https://github.com/golang/go/issues/64947#issuecomment-1887667189).

Updates #64947.
