This change adds RejectNegative in a number of places it was needed,
reorders the opts into two groups (one general and one driver-only).
We also add a minimal description to each opt, and note some that
are now obsolete. The only functional change is to permit
-mtarget-linker= as an alias of -mtarget-linker.
Tested on darwin9, 16 and 18, applied to mainline.

* config/darwin.opt: Add RejectNegative where needed, reorder
and add minimal functional descriptions.
