Implement alwayslink behavior for object_file_group artifacts.

The current implementation of alwayslink for object_file_group artifacts is incorrect, based on the assumption that `-whole-archive --start-lib <objects> -no-whole-archive --end-lib` is equivalent to `<objects>`.

Although --start-lib/--end-lib flags do give objects archive-like resolution behavior, -whole-archive/-no-whole-archive only apply to static libraries. Therefore, all object_file_group artifacts are currently being linked with archive-like resolution behavior.

To correctly achieve alwayslink behavior with object groups, it suffices to leave out the --start-lib/--end-lib flags, so that the object files are received with their ordinary, alwayslink behavior.

In addition to implementing alwayslink behavior, this CL also restricts applications of -whole-archive/-no-whole-archive to static libraries. This produces no change in behavior.
