GNU ld has got a number of different flags for adjusting how to
behave around stdcall functions. The --kill-at flag strips the
trailing sdcall suffix from exported functions (which otherwise
is included by default in MinGW setups).
This also strips it from the corresponding import library though.
That makes it hard to link to such an import library from code
that calls the functions - but this matches what GNU ld does with
this flag. Therefore, this flag is probably not sensibly used
together with import libraries, but probably mostly when creating
some sort of plugin, or if creating the import library separately
with dlltool.

This fixes exporting functions in the following cases:
- functions starting with an underscore in def files
- functions starting with an underscore, via dllexport attributes, for mingw
- fastcall and vectorcall functions when declared undecorated in def files
- vectorcall functions when declared decorated in def files
- stdcall functions when declared decorated in def files for mingw
This still exports the stdcall functions with the wrong name
in the normal msvc/link.exe mode, if declared with decoration in
the def file though (this is not a regression though). Exporting
functions via def files including decoration is not something I
believe is routinely done though, but is tested to try to match
link.exe's behaviour as far as easily possible.

Since SVN r303491 and r304573, LLD used the COFFImportLibrary
functions from LLVM. These only had two names, Name and ExtName,
which wasn't enough to convey all the details of stdcall functions.
Stdcall functions got the wrong symbol name in the import library
itself in r303491, which is why it was reverted in r304561. When
re-landed and fixed in r304573 (after adding a test in r304572),
the symbol name itself in the import library ended up right, but the
name type of the import library entry was wrong.
This had the effect that linking to the import library succeeded
(contrary to in r303491, where linking to such an import library
failed), but at runtime, the symbol wouldn't be found in the DLL
(since the caller linked to the stdcall decorated name).

Noticed while testing for an out of tree target. There are probably more tests that should be so marked.
I'm not sure who owns these tests so I've added a few names I recognise from the recent history.
With advice from probinson, ruiu, rafael and dramatically improved by davidb. Thank you all!

The .def file parser changes I reverted broke this test case, and
exported "__imp__foo" instead of "__imp__foo@8". This was
