Move the handling to the top-level, adding it _once_ to EXTRA_LIBS.
Thus avoiding some duplication across the board.
Note that final handling varies a bit, namely:
- OpenBSD/intl should be handled via the existing cmake/FindGettext.cmake
- Darwin/resolv should not be needed since commit e98a32373 ("core: check
if res_init requires linking with libresolv")
- the backtrace/execinfo handling has been consolidated and moved
In the unlikely case of unwanted over-linking, the platforms can add
`-Wl,--as-needed` to their linker flags. Something which is strongly
encouraged and has been the default across multiple (linux) distros for
years.
Alternatively, if move quirks are needed they should be handled in a
single place.
