Currently, rustc defaults to invoking `cc`, even if `HOSTCC` is defined,
resulting in build failures in hermetic environments where `cc` does not
exist. This includes both hostprogs and proc-macros.

Since we are setting the linker to `HOSTCC`, we set the linker flavor to
`gcc` explicitly. The linker-flavor selects both which linker to search
for if the linker is unset, and which kind of linker flags to pass.
Without this flag, `rustc` would attempt to determine which flags to
pass based on the name of the binary passed as `HOSTCC`. `gcc` is the
name of the linker-flavor used by `rustc` for all C compilers, including
both `gcc` and `clang`.

Psst, next time I'd recommend putting patch version to version changes
here. Still, LGTM.

Why not consistently use the escsq macro here too ?

I didn't use it in rust/Makefile because that makefile doesn't
directly import scripts/Kbuild.include, and I was under the mistaken
impression that scripts/ was supposed to be its own namespace, even if
Make wasn't enforcing it. Inspecting other functions in
scripts/Kbuild.include though, it's clear they're called elsewhere, so
I'll upload another version of the patch using escsq here as well.
