When linking a shared library with --make, always do the link step

Without -shared, the default target is a binary and in that case
it makes sense for --make to not try and link a binary when there
is no Main module. But for a shared library the user already has
to specify -shared and there's no reason a shared lib should
contain any Main module or main function.
