None of the Intel drivers (crocus, iris, anv) need LLVM. libLLVM.so is only
referenced because Gallium is built as one mega driver with hard links for each
DRI name.

lang/clover inherits pinned LLVM_DEFAULT from graphics/mesa-dri which is
devel/llvm13 but devel/libclc uses devel/llvm12. Mixing LLVM bitcode is
error-prone (e.g., www/firefox + LTO vs. lang/rust) but maybe backward
compatibility is better than forward compatibility.
