the behavior of the type system not only depends on the current
assumptions, but also the currentnphase of the compiler. This is
mostly necessary as we need to decide whether and how to reveal
opaque types. We track this via the `TypingMode`.
Migrate `llvm::set_comdat` and `llvm::SetUniqueComdat` to LLVM-C FFI.
Note, now we can call `llvm::set_comdat` only when the target actually
supports adding comdat. As this has no convenient LLVM-C API, we
implement this as `TargetOptions::supports_comdat`.

Supertraits of `BuilderMethods` are all called `XyzBuilderMethods`.
Supertraits of `CodegenMethods` are all called `XyzMethods`. This commit
changes the latter to `XyzCodegenMethods`, for consistency.
This matches Clang's behavior:
973cb2c326/clang/lib/CodeGen/CodeGenModule.cpp (L1038-L1040)
Even if `dso_local` were properly supported in this way on macOS, it seems
incorrect to add this annotation as liberally as we did. The `dso_local`
annotation is for symbols that ultimately end up in the same linkage unit, but
we were adding this annotation even for `static` values inside `extern` blocks
marked with `#[link(type="framework")]`, which should be considered dynamically
linked. Note that Clang likewise avoids emitting `dso_local` for `dllimport`
symbols:
973cb2c326/clang/lib/CodeGen/CodeGenModule.cpp (L1005-L1007)
This issue caused breakage in the `ring` crate, which links to a symbol defined
in `Security.framework` that ultimately resolves to address `0x0`:
b94d61e044/src/rand.rs (L390)
For this symbol, the use of `dso_local` causes LLVM to emit a relocation of
type `X86_64_RELOC_SIGNED`, which is a 32-bit signed PC-relative offset. If the
binary is large enough, `0x0` might be out of range, and the link will fail.
Avoiding `dso_local` causes LLVM to use the GOT instead, emitting a relocation
of type `X86_64_RELOC_GOT_LOAD`, which will properly handle the large offset
and cause the link to succeed.
As a side note, the static relocation model is effectively deprecated for
security reasons on macOS, as it prohibits PIE. It's also completely
unsupported on Apple Silicon, so I don't think it's worth going to the effort
of properly supporting this model on that platform.
This should have no real effect in most cases, as e.g. `hidden`
visibility already implies `dso_local` (or at least LLVM IR does not
preserve the `dso_local` setting if the item is already `hidden`), but
it should fix `-Crelocation-model=static` and improve codegen in
executables.
Note that this PR does not exhaustively port the logic in [clang]. Only
the obviously correct portion and what is necessary to fix a regression
from LLVM 12 that relates to `-Crelocation_model=static`.
