Teresa Johnson 4fef68cb8d [ThinLTO] Only promote exported locals as marked in index
Summary:
We have always speculatively promoted all renamable local values
(except const non-address taken variables) for both the exporting
and importing module. We would then internalize them back based on
the ThinLink results if they weren't actually exported. This is
inefficient, and results in unnecessary renames. It also meant we
had to check the non-renamability of a value in the summary, which
was already checked during function importing analysis in the ThinLink.

Made renameModuleForThinLTO (which does the promotion/renaming) instead
use the index when exporting, to avoid unnecessary renames/promotions.
For importing modules, we can simply promoted all values as any local
we import by definition is exported and needs promotion.

This required changes to the method used by the FunctionImport pass
(only invoked from 'opt' for testing) and when invoked from llvm-link,
since neither does a ThinLink. We simply conservatively mark all locals
in the index as promoted, which preserves the current aggressive
promotion behavior.

I also needed to change an llvm-lto based test where we had previously
been aggressively promoting values that weren't importable (aliasees),
but now will not promote.
