Their linkage can change if they are later explicitly instantiated. We would
previously emit such functions eagerly (as opposed to lazily on first use) if
they have a 'dllexport' or 'used' attribute, and fail an assert when hitting the
explicit instantiation.
This is achieved by replacing the old CodeGenModule::MayDeferGeneration() method
with two new ones: MustBeEmitted() and MayBeEmittedEagerly().

after we've already instantiated a definition for the function, pass it to the
ASTConsumer again so that it knows the specialization kind has changed and can
update the function's linkage.
This only matters if we instantiate the definition of the function before we
reach the end of the TU; this can happen in at least three different ways:
C++11 constexpr functions, C++14 deduced return types, and functions
instantiated within modules.

weak linkage. Also, fix a problem where global weak variables
with non-trivial initializers were getting guard variables, or at
least were checking for them and then crashing.

templates when only the declaration is in scope. This requires deferring the
instantiation to be lazy, and ensuring the definition is required for that
translation unit. We re-use the existing pending instantiation queue,
previously only used to track implicit instantiations which were required to be
lazy. Fixes PR7979.
A subsequent change will rename *PendingImplicitInstantiations to
*PendingInstatiations for clarity given its broader role.

iterations of this patch gave explicit template instantiation
link-once ODR linkage, which permitted the back end to eliminate
unused symbols. Weak ODR linkage still requires the symbols to be
generated.

- This is designed to make it obvious that %clang_cc1 is a "test variable"
which is substituted. It is '%clang_cc1' instead of '%clang -cc1' because it
can be useful to redefine what gets run as 'clang -cc1' (for example, to set
a default target).

instantiation of a member function template or member function of a
class template to be out-of-line if the definition of that function
template or member function was defined out-of-line. This ensures that
we get the correct linkage for explicit instantiations of out-of-line
definitions.

templates. We now distinguish between an explicit instantiation
declaration and an explicit instantiation definition, and know not to
instantiate explicit instantiation declarations. Unfortunately, there
is some remaining confusion w.r.t. instantiation of out-of-line member
function definitions that causes trouble here.
