Summary:
Before, "[options] <inputs>" is unconditionally appended to the `Name` parameter. It is more flexible to change its semantic to `Usage` and let user customize the usage line.

The operator == used for exporting a function with a different
name in the DLL compared to the name in the import library
(which is useful for adding linker level aliases for function
in the import library) is a feature distinct and different from
the operator = used for exporting a function with a different
name (both in import library and DLL) than in the implementation
producing the DLL.
When creating an import library using dlltool, from a def file that
contains forwards (Func = OtherDll.Func), this shouldn't affect the
produced import library, which should still behave just as if it
was a normal exported function.
This clears a lot of confusion and subtle misunderstandings, and
avoids a parameter that was used to avoid creating weak aliases
when invoked from lld. (This parameter was added previously due to
the existing conflation of the two features.)

This fixes exporting functions starting with an underscore, and
fully decorated fastcall/vectorcall functions.
Tests will be added in the lld repo.

When creating an import library from lld, the cases with
Name != ExtName shouldn't end up as a weak alias, but as a real
export of the new name, which is what actually is exported from
the DLL.
This restores the behaviour of renamed exports to what it was in
4.0.
The other half of this commit, including test, goes into lld.

Hook up the -k option (that in the original GNU dlltool removes the
@n suffix from the symbol that the final executable ends up linked to).
In llvm-dlltool, make sure that functions end up with the undecorate
name type if this option is set and they are decorated. In mingw, when
creating import libraries from def files instead of creating an import
library as a side effect of linking a DLL, the symbol names in the def
contain the stdcall/fastcall decoration (but no leading underscore).
By setting the undecorate name type, a linker linking to the import
library will omit the decoration from the DLL import entry.
With this in place, mingw-w64 for i386 built with llvm-dlltool/clang
produces import libraries that actually work.
