For a definition (of most linkage types), dso_local is set for ELF -fno-pic/-fpie
and COFF, but not for Mach-O. This nuance causes unneeded binary format differences.
This patch replaces (function) `define ` with `define{{.*}} `,
(variable/constant/alias) `= ` with `={{.*}} `, or inserts appropriate `{{.*}} `
if there is an explicit linkage.
* Clang will set dso_local for Mach-O, which is currently implied by TargetMachine.cpp. This will make COFF/Mach-O and executable ELF similar.
* Eventually I hope we can make dso_local the textual LLVM IR default (write explicit "dso_preemptable" when applicable) and -fpic ELF will be similar to everything else. This patch helps move toward that goal.

* Adds 'nonnull' and 'dereferenceable(N)' to 'this' pointer arguments
* Gates 'nonnull' on -f(no-)delete-null-pointer-checks
* Introduces this-nonnull.cpp and microsoft-abi-this-nullable.cpp tests to

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.

Much to my surprise, '-disable-llvm-optzns' which I thought was the
magical flag I wanted to get at the raw LLVM IR coming out of Clang
deosn't do that. It still runs some passes over the IR. I don't want
that, I really want the *raw* IR coming out of Clang and I strongly
suspect everyone else using it is in the same camp.
There is actually a flag that does what I want that I didn't know about
called '-disable-llvm-passes'. I suspect many others don't know about it
either. It both does what I want and is much simpler.
This removes the confusing version and makes that spelling of the flag
an alias for '-disable-llvm-passes'. I've also moved everything in Clang
to use the 'passes' spelling as it seems both more accurate (*all* LLVM
passes are disabled, not just optimizations) and much easier to remember
and spell correctly.
This is part of simplifying how Clang drives LLVM to make it cleaner to
wire up to the new pass manager.

This annotation allows the optimizer to split vtable groups, as permitted by
a change to the Itanium ABI [1] that prevents compilers from adjusting virtual
table pointers between virtual tables.

In a future change, this representation will allow us to use the new inrange

The relative vtable ABI will use a struct rather than an array as the type
of a vtable. LLVM only allows 32-bit integers as struct indices, so we need
to use 32-bit integers to get addresses of address points. In order to keep
the code simple, we might as well do that unconditionally.
It's probably a reasonable implementation limit to support no more than 2
billion virtual functions per class.
This change causes quite a bit of churn in the test suite, so I'm making
it separately.

There was linker problem, and it turns out that it is not always safe
to refer to vtable. If the vtable is used, then we can refer to it
without any problem, but because we don't know when it will be used or
not, we can only check if vtable is external or it is safe to to emit it
speculativly (when class it doesn't have any inline virtual functions).
It should be fixed in the future.
