    Makeconfig: Move -Wl,-rpath-link options before library references

    Previously, the -Wl,-rpath-link options came after the libraries
    injected using LDLIBS-* variables on the link editor command line for
    main programs.  As a result, it could happen that installed libraries
    that reference glibc libraries used the installed glibc from the system
    directories, instead of the glibc from the build tree.  This can lead to
    link failures if the wrong version of libpthread.so.0 is used, for
    instance, due to differences in the internal GLIBC_PRIVATE interfaces,
    as seen with memusagestat and -lgd after commit
    f9b645b4b0a10c43753296ce3fa40053fa44606a ("memusagestat: use local glibc
    when linking [BZ #18465]").

    The isolation is necessarily imperfect because these installed
    libraries are linked against the installed glibc in the system
    directories.  However, in most cases, the built glibc will be newer
    than the installed glibc, and this link is permitted because of the
    ABI backwards compatibility glibc provides.
