Add user-supplied C runtime and compiler-rt library functions to
llvm.compiler.used to protect them from premature optimization by
passes like -globalopt and -ipsccp. Calls to (seemingly unused)
runtime library functions can be added by -instcombine and instruction
lowering.

Fixes <rdar://problem/14740087>
llvm-svn: 194514
There are two ways one could implement hiding of linkonce_odr symbols in LTO:
* LLVM tells the linker which symbols can be hidden if not used from native
files.
* The linker tells LLVM which symbols are not used from other object files,
but will be put in the dso symbol table if present.
GOLD's API is the second option. It was implemented almost 1:1 in llvm by
passing the list down to internalize.
LLVM already had partial support for the first option. It is also very similar
to how ld64 handles hiding these symbols when *not* doing LTO.
This patch then
* removes the APIs for the DSO list.
* marks LTO_SYMBOL_SCOPE_DEFAULT_CAN_BE_HIDDEN all linkonce_odr unnamed_addr
global values and other linkonce_odr whose address is not used.
* makes the gold plugin responsible for handling the API mismatch.

This deletes the Module ivar instead of having the LTO code generater do it. It
also sets the pointer to 'NULL', so that if it's used again it will abort
quickly.

Generalize the API so we can distinguish symbols that are needed just for a DSO
symbol table from those that are used from some native .o.
The symbols that are only wanted for the dso symbol table can be dropped if
llvm can prove every other dso has a copy (linkonce_odr) and the address is not
important (unnamed_addr).
