Since they'll likely (not always - if the address is taken, etc) be
inlined away, even at -O0, separately provided weak definitions are
likely to be unused so skip all of that.

Some decls are created not where they are written, but in other module
files/users (implicit special members and function template implicit
specializations). To correctly identify them, use a bit next to the definition
to track the modular codegen property.
Discussed whether the module file bit could be omitted in favor of
reconstituting from the modular codegen decls list - best guess today is that
the efficiency improvement of not having to deserialize the whole list whenever
any function is queried by a module user is worth it for the small size
increase of this redundant (list + bit-on-def) representation.

First pass at generating weak definitions of inline functions from module files
(& skipping (-O0) or emitting available_externally (optimizations)
definitions where those modules are used).
External functions defined in modules are emitted into the modular
object file as well (this may turn an existing ODR violation (if that
module were imported into multiple translations) into valid/linkable
code).
Internal symbols (static functions, for example) are not correctly
supported yet. The symbol will be produced, internal, in the modular
object - unreferenceable from the users.
