CUDA: Filter out host link flags during device linking

Since commit v3.12.0-rc1~278^2 (CUDA: Pass more link libraries to device
linking, 2018-03-27) we consider every link item during device linking.
However, items that start in `-` may be host-specific link flags that
nvcc will not understand during device linking.  Filter such items using
a white list.

In particular, this allows `-pthread` to be used for host linking while
not polluting the device link line.

Issue: #18008
