Fix SwiftShader's libEGL build under ThinLTO.

Linking libEGL.so of the SwiftShader's flavor requires
the linker to be too smart (there's a heavy reliance on
garbage collecting unused symbols, for which there is
no guarantees in the general case). In ThinLTO case,
garbage collection is still not as sofisticated, as in
other cases, so it fails to link the target complaining
about undefined symbols.

The workaround is to prevent Clang from splitting the
bitcode files in the question into two, and making the
GC problem a bit easier.

Eventually, ThinLTO might get a better GC, but it might
be a good idea to not rely on this feature in the source
code. At least, no other targets in Chromium do.
