Emit metadata instead of link

It allows us to save a bit of space, ignore the duplicate object files, and the archiving steps; e.g.: 643544 libcompiler_builtins.rlib 64171752 libcore.rlib vs. 530004 libcompiler_builtins.rmeta 63679866 libcore.rmeta We couldn't do it right away in [1] because `rustc` required a fix [2,3]. The fix is now in [4] and available since the 2021-01-21 nightly, so now we can go ahead and make the change. Fixes #75.
