This simplifies the code by allowing us to remove the visibility argument
to functions that create synthetic symbols.
The only functional change is that the visibility of the MIPS "_gp" symbol
is now hidden. Because this symbol is defined in every executable or DSO, it
would be difficult to observe a visibility change here.

The _gp* family of symbols is defined as an offset in .got, and it is
not at all clear what should happen when .got is not defined.
This will allow some simplifications on how these symbols are handled.
