This patch is part of the upstreaming effort for supporting SYCL
language front end.
It makes the following changes:
1. Adds sycl_external attribute for functions with external linkage,
which is intended for use to implement the SYCL_EXTERNAL macro as
specified by the SYCL 2020 specification
2. Adds checks to avoid emitting device code when sycl_external and
sycl_kernel_entry_point attributes are not enabled
3. Fixes test failures caused by the above changes
This patch is missing diagnostics for the following diagnostics listed
in the SYCL 2020 specification's section 5.10.1, which will be addressed
in a subsequent PR:
Functions that are declared using SYCL_EXTERNAL have the following
additional restrictions beyond those imposed on other device functions:
1. If the SYCL backend does not support the generic address space then
the function cannot use raw pointers as parameter or return types.
Explicit pointer classes must be used instead;
2. The function cannot call group::parallel_for_work_item;
3. The function cannot be called from a parallel_for_work_group scope.
In addition to that, the subsequent PR will also implement diagnostics
for inline functions including virtual functions defined as inline.

- Address space cast of nullptr in local_space into a generic_space for
the CUDA backend. The reason for this cast was having invalid local
memory base address for the associated variable.
- In the context of AMD GPU, assigns a NULL value as ~0 for the address
spaces of sycl_local and sycl_private to match the ones for opencl_local
and opencl_private.
