The MergeFunctions pass was originally intended to emit aliases
instead of thunks where possible (unnamed_addr). However, for a
long time this functionality was behind a flag hardcoded to false,
bitrotted and was eventually removed in r309313.
Originally the functionality was first disabled in r108417 due to
lack of support for aliases in Mach-O. I believe that this is no
longer the case nowadays, but not really familiar with this area.
In the interest of being conservative, this patch reintroduces the
aliasing functionality behind a default disabled -mergefunc-use-aliases
flag.
