metadata types which should be marked as "weak", but which the linker will
remove upon final linkage. For example, the "objc_msgSend_fixup_alloc" symbol is
defined like this:
.globl l_objc_msgSend_fixup_alloc
.weak_definition l_objc_msgSend_fixup_alloc
.section __DATA, __objc_msgrefs, coalesced
.align 3
l_objc_msgSend_fixup_alloc:
.quad _objc_msgSend_fixup
.quad L_OBJC_METH_VAR_NAME_1
This is different from the "linker_private" linkage type, because it can't have
the metadata defined with ".weak_definition".

where we used ot create an MCSymbol for ".". Now emit an assembler
temporary label and reference it instead of "." textually.

to Mangler. Now MCSymbol just decides whether to slap quotes around
a symbol when printing it.
This also fixes some weirdness where two MCSymbols could be created
for the same symbol, if one needed to be mangled and got mangled to
the other one.
