Description
There were many new versions of Microsoft Linker released since we last updated our [PE heuristics](https://github.com/avast-tl/retdec/blob/a5f2992ac59d328a1c9a99427e5651b5daee385e/src/cpdetect/compiler_detector/heuristics/pe_heuristics.cpp#L1035) for detection of compiler. This list would need update.

Research direction
Start in src/cpdetect/compiler_detector/heuristics/pe_heuristics.cpp at the linked PE heuristics section and review how Microsoft Linker versions are listed for compiler detection. Identify the versions released since the referenced revision, update that list, and verify that the PE heuristics recognize the new versions.
