It should be noted that when some mdk programs all use the microlib library to run, it requires the compiler to add the __MICROLIB macro definition, and the linker to add various configurations such as --library_type=microlib.

We can set directly to the microlib runtime library through set_runtimes("microlib"), and all relevant options can be set automatically.
