Currently warning is printed called even if the selection ordering flag has not been passed. Only print warning if `--limit-configure-section-file` has been passed to configure. Fixes: nodejs#35872

It seems like this is related to the inclusion of using the ld.gold linker as part of
--use-section-ordering-file.The default compiler setup on OSX does not have these features... further, I don't believe the default configuration for node.js even uses
--use-section-ordering-file. When I saw this warning at first I was worried that there had been some sort of regression in my build tools locally (something that can happen with OSX / Xcode upgrades) and I lots about an hour of time trying to debug things.In the end I really couldn't find an easy way to get the ld.gold linker installed on OSX at all.
With all this in mind I wonder if it might make sense for us to only present the warning if the flag that requires the ld.gold linker is passed.
/cc @gabrielf whom I believe added this feature
