C++ constructors/destructors need to go through a different constructor to construct a GlobalDecl object in order to retrieve their linkage type. This causes an assert failure in the default constructor of GlobalDecl. I'm chaning it to using the exsiting GlobalDecl object.

D96109 added support for unique internal linkage names for both internal
linkage functions and global variables. There was a lot of discussion on how to
get the demangling right for functions but I completely missed the point that
demanglers do not support suffixes for global vars. For example:
$ c++filt _ZL3foo
foo
$ c++filt _ZL3foo.uniq.123
_ZL3foo.uniq.123
The demangling for functions works as expected.
I am not sure of the impact of this. I don't understand how debuggers and other
tools depend on the correctness of global variable demangling so I am
pre-emptively disabling it until we can get the demangling support added.
Importantly, uniquefying global variables is not needed right now as we do not
do profile attribution to global vars based on sampling. It was added for
completeness and so this feature is not exactly missed.

The option -funique-internal-linkage-names was added in D73307 and D78243 as a
LLVM early pass to insert a unique suffix to internal linkage functions and
vars. The unique suffix was the hash of the module path. However, we found
that this can be done more cleanly in clang early and the fixes that need to
be done later can be completely avoided. The fixes in particular are trying
to modify the DW_AT_linkage_name and finding the right place to insert the
pass.
This patch ressurects the original implementation proposed in D73307 which
was reviewed and then ditched in favor of the pass based approach.

Please see D93747 for more context which tries to make linkage names of internal
linkage functions to be the uniqueified names. This causes a problem with gdb
because breaking using the demangled function name will not work if the new
uniqueified name cannot be demangled. The problem is the generated suffix which
is a mix of integers and letters which do not demangle. The demangler accepts
either all numbers or all letters. This patch simply converts the hash to decimal.
There is no loss of uniqueness by doing this as the precision is maintained.
The symbol names get longer by a few characters though.

Prepend the module name hash with a fixed string ".__uniq." which helps tools
that consume sampled profiles and attribute it to functions to understand
that this symbol belongs to a unique internal linkage type symbol.
Symbols with suffixes can result from various optimizations in the compiler.
Function Multiversioning, function splitting, parameter constant propogation,
unique internal linkage names.
External tools like sampled profile aggregators combine profiles from multiple
runs of a binary. They use various heuristics with symbols that have suffixes
to try and attribute the profile to the right function instance. For instance
multi-versioned symbols like foo.avx, foo.sse4.2, etc even though different
should be attributed to the same source function if a single function is
versioned, using attribute target_clones (supported in GCC but yet to land in
LLVM). Similarly, functions that are split (split part having a .cold suffix)
could have profiles for both the original and split symbols but would be
aggregated and attributed to the original function that was split.
Unique internal linkage functions however have different source instances and
the aggregator must not put them together but attribute it to the appropriate
function instance. To be sure that we are dealing with a symbol of a unique
internal linkage function, we would like to prepend the hash with a known
string ".__uniq." which these tools can check to understand the suffix type.

D87921 was reverted in commit b89059a313
as it was causing an unknown llvm PPC bot failure. Reapplying the patch
after confirming that this is not responsible. Build bot failure:
https://reviews.llvm.org/D87921#2286644 which caused the revert.
The wrong placement of add pass with optimizations led to
-funique-internal-linkage-names being disabled.
Fixed the placement of the MPM.addpass for UniqueInternalLinkageNames to make it
work correctly with -O2 and new pass manager. Updated the tests to explicitly
check O0 and O1.

Fixed the placement of the MPM.addpass for UniqueInternalLinkageNames to make
it work correctly with -O2 and new pass manager. Updated the tests to
explicitly check O0 and O2.
Previously, the addPass was placed before BackendUtil.cpp#L1373 which is wrong
as MPM gets assigned at this point and any additions to the pass vector before
this is wrong. This change just moves it after MPM is assigned and places it at
a point where O0 and O0+ can share it.

This is a standalone patch and this would help Propeller do a better job of code
layout as it can accurately attribute the profiles to the right internal linkage
function.
This also helps SampledFDO/AutoFDO correctly associate sampled profiles to the
right internal function. Currently, if there is more than one internal symbol
foo, their profiles are aggregated by SampledFDO.
This patch adds a new clang option, -funique-internal-funcnames, to generate
unique names for functions with internal linkage. This patch appends the md5
hash of the module name to the function symbol as a best effort to generate a
unique name for symbols with internal linkage.
