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.
This reverts commit 55c4ff91bd.
Issues were introduced as discussed in https://reviews.llvm.org/D88241
where this change made previous bugs in the linker and BitCodeWriter
visible.
Make the corresponding change that was made for byval in
b7141207a4. Like byval, this requires a
bulk update of the test IR tests to include the type before this can
be mandatory.
Lots of tests are using an explicit target triple w/o first checking that the
target is actually available. Add a REQUIRES clause to a bunch of them. This should
hopefully unbreak bots which don't configure w/ all targets enabled.

emit call results into potentially aliased slots. This allows us
to properly mark indirect return slots as noalias, at the cost
of requiring an extra memcpy when assigning an aggregate call
result into a l-value. It also brings us into compliance with
the x86-64 ABI.

I mistakenly thought that this was checking for vector name mangling, but
it is not. Since we're no longer wrapping Neon vectors in structs, this
test can just return a vector directly. There are already other tests for
that, so just to make this interesting, change the test to return a struct
of two vectors.

- Therefore, we can lower out the NEON wrapper structs and pass the vectors
directly. This makes a huge difference in the cleanliness of the IR after
optimization.
- I will trust, but verify, via future ABITest testing (for APCS-GNU, at
least).
