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.
In a future change, this representation will allow us to use the new inrange
annotation on getelementptr to allow the optimizer to split vtable groups.

lit.cfg has never supported running .C files, so these tests were never
executed by check-clang. Rename them to .cpp so that they run as part of
the test suite, and minorly tweak two of them that look like they were broken
when checked in to actually pass.
