Because references must be initialized using some evaluated expression, they
must point to something, and a callee can assume the reference parameter is
dereferenceable. Taking advantage of a new attribute just added to LLVM, mark
them as such.
Because dereferenceability in addrspace(0) implies nonnull in the backend, we
don't need both attributes. However, we need to know the size of the object to
use the dereferenceable attribute, so for incomplete types we still emit only
nonnull.

This makes us emit dllexported in-class initialized static data members (which
are treated as definitions in MSVC), even when they're not referenced.
It also makes their special linkage reflected in the GVA linkage instead of
getting massaged in CodeGen.

We would previously fail to emit a definition of bar() for the following code:
struct __declspec(dllexport) S {
void foo() {
t->bar();
}
struct T {
void bar() {}
};
T *t;
};
Note that foo() is an exported method, but bar() is not. However, foo() refers
to bar() so we need to emit its definition. We would previously fail to
realise that bar() is used.
By deferring the method definitions until the end of the top level declaration,
we can simply call EmitTopLevelDecl on them and rely on the usual mechanisms
to decide whether the method should be emitted or not.
