Refactors the link driver to automatically compile and cache the carbon
prelude for use in linking.
Implements a `carbon_library` rule for compiling the Core library
dependencies in the examples.
This follows the pattern of our main compile benchmarks, but instead of
running the compile through a library API, it does so by running a
separate process. This lets us see the performance that we would expect
from `make` or another build system invoking the compiler, as opposed to
a minimal view from the library API.

We had source generation support for some time, but needed to get all
the runtimes set up correctly so that standard library headers are
available. Now that this is in place, we can benchmark both languages.
Also fixes a bug in the C++ source generation causing compile failures.

The benchmarks themselves aren't really specific to `driver`.
Keeping the source generation near to the primary use case of
benchmarking also seems like a more discoverable location.
I feel a little bad doing this reorganization right after I gave a talk
with links to a bunch of this code, but seems good to reorganize a bit
before doing some work to extend things now that we have full standard
library support for C++ benchmarking and other improvements.
