The -phony-externals option adds a generator which explicitly defines any
otherwise unresolved externals as null. This transforms link-time
unresolved-symbol errors into potential runtime null pointer accesses
(if an unresolved external is actually accessed during execution).
This option can be useful in -harness mode to avoid having to mock a
large number of symbols that are not reachable at runtime (e.g. unused
methods referenced by a class vtable).
