For a default visibility external linkage definition, dso_local is set for ELF
-fno-pic/-fpie and COFF and Mach-O. Since default clang -cc1 for ELF is similar
to -fpic ("PIC Level" is not set), this nuance causes unneeded binary format differences.
To make emitted IR similar, ELF -cc1 -fpic will default to -fno-semantic-interposition,
which sets dso_local for default visibility external linkage definitions.
To make this flip smooth and enable future (dso_local as definition default),
this patch replaces (function) `define ` with `define{{.*}} `,
(variable/constant/alias) `= ` with `={{.*}} `, or inserts appropriate `{{.*}} `.
Summary:
Clang -fpic defaults to -fno-semantic-interposition (GCC -fpic defaults
to -fsemantic-interposition).
Users need to specify -fsemantic-interposition to get semantic
interposition behavior.
Semantic interposition is currently a best-effort feature. There may
still be some cases where it is not handled well.

My variadics patch, r169588, changed these calls to typically be
bitcasts rather than calls to a supposedly variadic function.
This totally subverted a hack where we intentionally dropped
excess arguments from such calls in order to appease the inliner
and a "warning" from the optimizer. This patch extends the hack
to also work with bitcasts, as well as teaching it to rewrite
invokes.

if the definition has a non-variadic prototype with compatible
parameters. Therefore, the default rule for such calls must be to
use a non-variadic convention. Achieve this by casting the callee to
the function type with which it is required to be compatible, unless
the target specifically opts out and insists that unprototyped calls
should use the variadic rules. The only case of that I'm aware of is
the x86-64 convention, which passes arguments the same way in both
cases but also sets a small amount of extra information; here we seek
to maintain compatibility with GCC, which does set this when calling
an unprototyped function.
Addresses PR10810 and PR10713.

a common source of oddities and, in theory, removes some redundant ABI
computations. Also fixes a miscompile I introduced yesterday by refactoring
some code and causing a slightly different code path to be taken that
didn't perform *parameter* type canonicalization, just normal type
canonicalization; this in turn caused a bit of ABI code to misfire because
it was looking for 'double' or 'float' but received 'const float'.

- This is designed to make it obvious that %clang_cc1 is a "test variable"
which is substituted. It is '%clang_cc1' instead of '%clang -cc1' because it
can be useful to redefine what gets run as 'clang -cc1' (for example, to set
a default target).

to go back and clean up existing uses of the bitcasted function. This
is not just an optimization: it is required for correctness to get
always inline functions to work, see testcases in function-attributes.c.
