Revert "Mention the fact that binutils can't use the generated import libraries"

Browse Source 
This reverts commit 9367988be7.

binutils actually can handle the short import format just fine.
It only has got issues with base mingw import libraries that contain
symbol aliases (which in llvm-dlltool is implemented via weak
symbols, and linking to weak symbols differ a bit between lld and
binutils ld).
