clang/lib/CodeGen/CodeGenModule sets dso_local on applicable function declarations,
we don't need to duplicate the work in TargetMachine:shouldAssumeDSOLocal.
(Actually the long-term goal (started by r324535) is to drop TargetMachine::shouldAssumeDSOLocal.)
By not implying dso_local, we will respect dso_local/dso_preemptable specifiers
set by the frontend. This allows the proposed -fno-direct-access-external-data
option to work with -fno-pic and prevent a canonical PLT entry (SHN_UNDEF with non-zero st_value)
when taking the address of a function symbol.
This patch should be NFC in terms of the Clang emitted assembly because the case
we don't set dso_local is a case Clang sets dso_local. However, some tests don't
set dso_local on some function declarations and expose some differences. Most
tests have been fixed to be more robust in the previous commit.
clang/lib/CodeGen/CodeGenModule sets dso_local on applicable global variables,
we don't need to duplicate the work in TargetMachine:shouldAssumeDSOLocal.
(Actually the long-term goal (started by r324535) is to remove as much
additional implied dso_local in TargetMachine:shouldAssumeDSOLocal as possible.)

This patch should be NFC in terms of the Clang behavior because the case we
don't set dso_local is a case Clang sets dso_local. However, some tests don't
set dso_local on some `external global` and expose some differences. Most tests
have been fixed to be more robust in previous commits.
LowerConstantPool passes a nullptr into classifyLocalReference. The medium code model handling for PIC will try to deference it using isa. This patch switches to isa_and_nonnull.

-fno-PIC and -fPIE code generally cannot be linked in -shared mode and there is no benefit accessing via local aliases.
Actually, a .Lfoo$local reference will be converted to a STT_SECTION (if no section relaxation) reference which will cause the section symbol (sizeof(Elf64_Sym)=24) to be generated.
For a MC_GlobalAddress reference to a dso_local external GlobalValue with a definition, emit .Lfoo$local to avoid a relocation.
-fno-pic and -fpie can infer dso_local but -fpic cannot. In the future,
we can explore the possibility of inferring dso_local with -fpic. As the
description of D73228 says, LLVM's existing IPO optimization behaviors
(like -fno-semantic-interposition) and a previous assembly behavior give
us enough license to be aggressive here.

Instead of using the MOVGOT64r pseudo, use the existing
MO_PIC_BASE_OFFSET support on symbol operands. Now I don't have to
create a "scratch register operand" for the pseudo to use, and the
register allocator can make better decisions.
Fixes some X86 verifier errors tracked in PR27481.

Don't try to generate large PIC code for non-ELF targets. Neither COFF
nor MachO have relocations for large position independent code, and
users have been using "large PIC" code models to JIT 64-bit code for a
while now. With this change, if they are generating ELF code, their
JITed code will truly be PIC, but if they target MachO or COFF, it will
contain 64-bit immediates that directly reference external symbols. For
a JIT, that's perfectly fine.
