Variables declared with the dllimport attribute are accessed via a
stub variable named __imp_<var>. In MinGW configurations, variables that
aren't declared with a dllimport attribute might still end up imported
from another DLL with runtime pseudo relocs.
For x86_64, this avoids the risk that the target is out of range
for a 32 bit PC relative reference, in case the target DLL is loaded
further than 4 GB from the reference. It also avoids having to make the
text section writable at runtime when doing the runtime fixups, which
makes it worthwhile to do for i386 as well.
Add stub variables for all dso local data references where a definition
of the variable isn't visible within the module, since the DLL data
autoimporting might make them imported even though they are marked as
dso local within LLVM.
Don't do this for variables that actually are defined within the same
module, since we then know for sure that it actually is dso local.
Don't do this for references to functions, since there's no need for
runtime pseudo relocations for autoimporting them; if a function from
a different DLL is called without the appropriate dllimport attribute,
the call just gets routed via a thunk instead.
GCC does something similar since 4.9 (when compiling with -mcmodel=medium
or large; from that version, medium is the default code model for x86_64
mingw), but only for x86_64.

Summary:
This seems to be the only place in llvm we directly call qsort. We can replace
this with a call to array_pod_sort. Also minor cleanup of the sorting function.

This ensures that symbolic relocations are generated for stack
pointer manipulations.
These relocations are of type R_WEBASSEMBLY_GLOBAL_INDEX_LEB.
This change also adds support for reading relocations of this
type in WasmObjectFile.cpp.
Since its a globally imported symbol this does mean that
the get_global/set_global instruction won't be valid until
the objects are linked that global used in no longer an
imported global.

indicates that an MCSymbol is external or not. (It's true if it's external.)
This will be used to specify the correct information to add to non-lazy
pointers. That will be explained further when this bit is used.
