Make symbols stripping work on MacOS X

Browse source 
As reported in the stabilization issue, MacOS' linker doesn't support the `-s` and `-S` flags to strip symbols anymore. However, the os ships a separated tool to perform these operations.

This change allows the compiler to use that tool after a target has been compiled to strip symbols.

For rationale, see: https://github.com/rust-lang/rust/issues/72110#issuecomment-641169818
For option selection, see: https://www.unix.com/man-page/osx/1/strip/
