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.

Summary:
This flag is enabled by default in the driver when NDEBUG is set. It
is forwarded on the LLVMContext to discard all value names (but
GlobalValue) for performance purpose.
This an improved version of D18024

Summary:
This allows us to easily identify them in the backend which in turn allows us
to handle them correctly for big-endian targets (where they must be shifted
into the upper bits of the register).
Depends on D5961

clang itself. This dates back to clang's early days and while it looks like
some of it is still used (for kext for example), other parts are probably dead.
Remove the -ccc-clang-archs option and associated code. I don't think there
is any remaining setup where clang doesn't support an architecture but it can
expect an working gcc cross compiler to be available.
A nice side effect is that tests no longer need to differentiate architectures
that are included in production builds of clang and those that are not.
