This patch adds and exception to the nvlink wrapper tool to not pass
empty cubin files to the nvlink job. If an empty file is passed to
nvlink it will cause an error indicating that the file could not be
opened. This would occur if the user tried to link object files that
contained offloading code with a file that didnt. This will act as a
workaround until the new OpenMP offloading driver becomes the default.

Added support of a "--nvlink-path" option in clang-nvlink-wrapper which
takes the path of nvlink binary.
Static Device Library support for OpenMP (D105191) now searches for
nvlink binary and passes its location via this option. In absence
of this option, nvlink binary is searched in locations in PATH.
