When we instrument a program for profiling, we copy the linkage of an
instrumented function so that our datastructures merge in the same way
as the function. This avoids redundant copies for things like
linkonce, but ends up emitting names we never need to reference for
normal and internal symbols. Promoting internal and external linkage
to private for these variables reduces the size overhead of profiling
drastically.

Shared objects are fairly broken for InstrProf right now -- a follow-up
commit in compiler-rt will fix the rest of this.
The main problem here is that at link time, profile data symbols in the
shared object might get used instead of symbols from the main
executable, creating invalid profile data sections.

In preparation for using a binary format for instrumentation based
profiling, explicitly treat the test inputs as text and transform them
before running. This will allow us to leave the checked in files in
human readable format once the instrumentation format is binary.
No functional change.

These functions are in the profile runtime. PGO comes later.
Unfortunately, there's only room for 16 characters in a Darwin section,
so use __llvm_prf_ instead of __llvm_profile_ for section names.

In instrumentation-based profiling, we need a set of data structures to
represent the counters. Previously, these were built up during static
initialization. Now, they're shoved into a specially-named section so
that they show up as an array.
As a consequence of the reorganizing symbols, instrumentation data
structures for linkonce functions are now correctly coalesced.
This is the first step in a larger project to minimize runtime overhead
and dependencies in instrumentation-based profilng. The larger picture
includes removing all initialization overhead and making the dependency
on libc optional.

These tests are logically related, but they're spread about several
different CodeGen directories. Consolidate them in one place to make
them easier to manage.
