cmd/link: add variable_parameter attr to functype outparams

When generating DW_TAG_subroutine_type DIEs during linker DWARF type
synthesis, ensure that in the list of children of the subroutine type
DIE (correspondings to input/output params) the output params are
marked with the DW_AT_variable_parameter attribute. In addition, fix
up the generated types of the output params: prior to this patch for a
given output parameter of type T, we would emit the DIE type as *T
(presumably due to how parameter passing/returning worked prior to the
register ABI); with this patch the emitted type will just be T, not *T.

Fixes #59977.
