MDEV-23887: check_linker_flags correct for old cmake compatibility

It was only from CMake-3.14.0 that CMAKE_REQUIRED_LINK_OPTIONS
was used in CHECK_CXX_SOURCE_COMPILES. Without this, it could be
the case (as was on OSX) that a flag was never checked in
CHECK_CXX_SOURCE_COMPILES, the CHECK successfully passed, but
failed at link time.

As such we use CMAKE_REQUIRED_LIBRARIES to include the flags to check
as its compatible enough with the cmake versions for non-Windows
compilers/linkers.

Tested on x86_64 with:
* 3.11.4
* 3.17.4

Corrects: 7473e184

In the future:
* cmake >=3.14.0 can use CMAKE_REQUIRED_LINK_OPTIONS
* cmake >=3.18.0 can use CHECK_LINKER_FLAG (with policy CMP0057 NEW)
(e.g: commit c7ac2deff9a2c965887dcc67cbf2a3a7c3e0123d)
