Extend the __declspec(dll*) attribute to cover ObjC interfaces. This was
requested by Microsoft for their ObjC support. Cover both import and export.
This only adds the semantic analysis portion of the support, code-generation
still remains outstanding. Add some basic initial documentation on the
attributes that were previously empty. Tweak the previous tests to use the
relative expected-warnings to make the tests easier to read.

If we have some function with dllimport attribute and then we have the function
definition in the same module but without dllimport attribute we should add
dllexport attribute to this function definition.
The same should be done for variables.
Example:
struct __declspec(dllimport) C3 {
~C3();
};
C3::~C3() {;} // we should export this definition.

They might technically have external linkage, but it still doesn't make sense
for the user to try and export such variables. This matches MSVC's and MinGW's
behaviour.

We referred to all declaration in definitions in our diagnostic messages
which is can be inaccurate. Instead, classify the declaration and emit
an appropriate diagnostic for the new declaration and an appropriate
note pointing to the old one.
This fixes PR24116.

Note: __declspec is also temporarily enabled when compiling for a CUDA target because there are implementation details relying on __declspec(property) support currently. When those details change, __declspec should be disabled for CUDA targets.

It turns out that MinGW never dllimports of exports inline functions.
This means that code compiled with Clang would fail to link with
MinGW-compiled libraries since we might try to import functions that
are not imported.
To fix this, make Clang never dllimport inline functions when targeting
MinGW.

Windows TLS relies on indexing through a tls_index in order to get at
the DLL's thread local variables. However, this index is not exported
along with the variable: it is assumed that all accesses to thread local
variables are inside the same module which created the variable in the
first place.
While there are several implementation techniques we could adopt to fix
this (notably, the Itanium ABI gets this for free), it is not worth the
heroics.
Instead, let's just ban this combination. We could revisit this in the
future if we need to.
This fixes PR21111.

This shouldn't really be allowed, but it comes up in real code (see PR). As
long as the decl hasn't been used there's no technical difficulty in supporting
it, so downgrade the error to a warning.

The C++ language requires that the address of a function be the same
across all translation units. To make __declspec(dllimport) useful,
this means that a dllimported function must also obey this rule. MSVC
implements this by dynamically querying the import address table located
in the linked executable. This means that the address of such a
function in C++ is not constant (which violates other rules).
However, the C language has no notion of ODR nor does it permit dynamic
initialization whatsoever. This requires implementations to _not_
dynamically query the import address table and instead utilize a wrapper
function that will be synthesized by the linker which will eventually
query the import address table. The effect this has is, to say the
least, perplexing.
Consider the following C program:
__declspec(dllimport) void f(void);
typedef void (*fp)(void);
static const fp var = &f;
const fp fun() { return &f; }
int main() { return fun() == var; }
MSVC will statically initialize "var" with the address of the wrapper
function and "fun" returns the address of the actual imported function.
This means that "main" will return false!
Note that LLVM's optimizers are strong enough to figure out that "main"
should return true. However, this result is dependent on having
optimizations enabled!
N.B. This change also permits the usage of dllimport declarators inside
of template arguments; they are sufficiently constant for such a
purpose. Add tests to make sure we don't regress here.

A redeclaration may not add dllimport or dllexport attributes. dllexport is
sticky and can be omitted on redeclarations while dllimport cannot.
