functions with a single use; eliminating the single use may eliminate
the function from the current module, but usually doesn't eliminate
it from the final program.

and it wasn't generating calls through @PLT for these functions.
hasLocalLinkage() is now false for available_externally,
I attempted to fix the inliner and dce to handle available_externally properly.
It passed make check.

and extern_weak_odr. These are the same as the non-odr versions,
except that they indicate that the global will only be overridden
by an *equivalent* global. In C, a function with weak linkage can
be overridden by a function which behaves completely differently.
This means that IP passes have to skip weak functions, since any
deductions made from the function definition might be wrong, since
the definition could be replaced by something completely different
at link time. This is not allowed in C++, thanks to the ODR
(One-Definition-Rule): if a function is replaced by another at
link-time, then the new function must be the same as the original
function. If a language knows that a function or other global can
only be overridden by an equivalent global, it can give it the
weak_odr linkage type, and the optimizers will understand that it
is alright to make deductions based on the function body. The
code generators on the other hand map weak and weak_odr linkage
to the same thing.

functions that don't already have a (dynamic) alloca.
Dynamic allocas cause inefficient codegen and we shouldn't
propagate this (behavior follows gcc). Two existing tests
assumed such inlining would be done; they are hacked by
adding an alloca in the caller, preserving the point of
the tests.

function.
- This explicitly models the costs for functions which should
"always" or "never" be inlined. This fixes bugs where such costs
were not previously respected.

This sets the stage
- to implement function notes as function attributes and
- to distinguish between function attributes and return value attributes.
This requires corresponding changes in llvm-gcc and clang.

2. Do not use # of basic blocks as part of the cost computation since it doesn't really figure into function size.
3. More aggressively inline function with vector code.

Furthermore, double the limit when more than 10% of the callee instructions are vector instructions. Multimedia kernels tend to love inlining.
