Summary:
This pragma is very rare. We could *hypothetically* lower some uses of
it down to @llvm.global_ctors, but given that GlobalOpt isn't able to
optimize prioritized global ctors today, there's really no point.
If we wanted to do this in the future, I would check if the section used
in the pragma started with ".CRT$XC" and had up to two characters after
it. Those two characters could form the 16-bit initialization priority
that we support in @llvm.global_ctors. We would have to teach LLVM to
lower prioritized global ctors on COFF as well.
This should let us compile some silly uses of this pragma in WebKit /
Blink.

By ignoring this pragma with a warning, we're essentially miscompiling
the user's program. WebKit / Blink use this pragma to disable dynamic
initialization and finalization of some static data, and running the
dtors crashes the program.
Error out for now, so that /fallback compiles the TU correctly with
MSVC. This pragma should be implemented some time this month, and we
can remove this hack.
