nix: use mold linker on Linux

Browse source 
Summary: Pure QOL improvement, not that this was too awful as it stood. But this
ultimately makes all builds faster, effectively for free; on my Linux machine,
debug link time for jj-cli goes from 3s to 1s.

This was originally submitted as part of #1864, and backed out as part of #1982,
because the default `mold` package did not have the proper "wrapper script"
that allowed it to find the right external libraries. Using the `mold-wrapped`
package however fixes this.

On top of that, let's go ahead and make `mold` the default linker in the Nix
package/flake as well; this should improve the `nix build` speed since a lot of
tests need to be linked.
