For a definition (of most linkage types), dso_local is set for ELF -fno-pic/-fpie
and COFF, but not for Mach-O. This nuance causes unneeded binary format differences.
This patch replaces (function) `define ` with `define{{.*}} `,
(variable/constant/alias) `= ` with `={{.*}} `, or inserts appropriate `{{.*}} `
if there is an explicit linkage.
* Clang will set dso_local for Mach-O, which is currently implied by TargetMachine.cpp. This will make COFF/Mach-O and executable ELF similar.
* Eventually I hope we can make dso_local the textual LLVM IR default (write explicit "dso_preemptable" when applicable) and -fpic ELF will be similar to everything else. This patch helps move toward that goal.
arguments.
* Adds 'nonnull' and 'dereferenceable(N)' to 'this' pointer arguments
* Gates 'nonnull' on -f(no-)delete-null-pointer-checks
* Introduces this-nonnull.cpp and microsoft-abi-this-nullable.cpp tests to
explicitly test the behavior of this change
* Refactors hundreds of over-constrained clang tests to permit these

always_inline.
The assertion in SetLLVMFunctionAttributesForDefinition used to fail
when there was attribute OptimizeNone on the AST function and attribute
always_inline on the IR function. This happens because base destructors
are annotated with always_inline when the code is compiled with
-fapple-kext (see r124757).

Initializers of global data that can appear multiple TUs (static data
members of class templates or __declspec(selectany) data) are now in a
comdat group keyed on the global variable being initialized. On
non-Windows platforms, this is a code size and startup time
optimization. On Windows, this is necessary for ABI compatibility with
MSVC.
Fixes PR16959.
