Summary:
A COFF stub indirects the reference to a symbol through memory. A
.refptr.$sym global variable pointer is created to refer to $sym.
Typically mingw uses these for external global variable declarations,
but we can use them for weak function declarations as well.
Updates the dso_local classification to add a special case for
extern_weak symbols on COFF in both clang and LLVM.

Since MinGW supports automatically importing external variables from
DLLs even without the DLLImport attribute, we shouldn't mark them
as DSO local unless we actually know them to be local for sure.
Keep marking thread local variables as DSO local.

The tests that failed on a windows host have been fixed.
Original message:
Start setting dso_local for COFF.
With this there are still some GVs where we don't set dso_local
because setGVProperties is never called. I intend to fix that in
followup commits. This is just the bare minimum to teach
shouldAssumeDSOLocal what it should do for COFF.

The difference from the previous try is that we no longer directly
access function declarations from position independent executables. It
should work, but currently doesn't with some linkers.
It now includes a fix to not mark available_externally definitions as
dso_local.
Original message:
Start setting dso_local in clang.
This starts adding dso_local to clang.
The hope is to eventually have TargetMachine::shouldAssumeDsoLocal go
away. My objective for now is to move enough of it to clang to remove
the need for the TargetMachine one to handle PIE copy relocations and
-fno-plt. With that it should then be easy to implement a
-fno-copy-reloc in clang.
This patch just adds the cases where we assume a symbol to be local
based on the file being compiled for an executable or a shared
library.

This reverts commit r324500.
The bots found two failures:
ThreadSanitizer-x86_64 :: Linux/pie_no_aslr.cc
ThreadSanitizer-x86_64 :: pie_test.cc
when using gold. The issue is a limitation in gold when building pie
binaries. I will investigate how to work around it.
