This removes an abuse of ELF linker behaviors while keeping Mach-O/COFF linker
behaviors unchanged.
ELF: when module_ctor is in a comdat, this patch removes reliance on a linker
abuse (an SHT_INIT_ARRAY in a section group retains the whole group) by using
SHF_GNU_RETAIN. No linker behavior difference when module_ctor is not in a comdat.
Mach-O: module_ctor gets `N_NO_DEAD_STRIP`. No linker behavior difference
because module_ctor is already referenced by a `S_MOD_INIT_FUNC_POINTERS`
section (GC root).
PE/COFF: no-op. SanitizerCoverage already appends module_ctor to `llvm.used`.
Other sanitizers: llvm.used for local linkage is not implemented in
`TargetLoweringObjectFileCOFF::emitLinkerDirectives` (once implemented or
switched to a non-local linkage, COFF can use module_ctor in comdat (i.e.
generalize ELF-specific rL301586)).
There is no object file size difference.

This is consistent with the clang option added in
7ed8124d46, and the comments on the
runtime patch in D87120.

Note that the runtime changes will be sent separately (hopefully this
week, need to add some tests).
This patch includes the LLVM pass to instrument memory accesses with
either inline sequences to increment the access count in the shadow
location, or alternatively to call into the runtime. It also changes
calls to memset/memcpy/memmove to the equivalent runtime version.
The pass is modeled on the address sanitizer pass.
The clang changes add the driver option to invoke the new pass, and to
link with the upcoming heap profiling runtime libraries.
Currently there is no attempt to optimize the instrumentation, e.g. to
aggregate updates to the same memory allocation. That will be
implemented as follow on work.
