Whereas it is UB in terms of the standard to delete an array of objects
via pointer whose static type doesn't match its dynamic type, MSVC
supports an extension allowing to do it.
Aside from array deletion not working correctly in the mentioned case,
currently not having this extension implemented causes clang to generate
code that is not compatible with the code generated by MSVC, because
clang always puts scalar deleting destructor to the vftable. This PR
aims to resolve these problems.
It was reverted due to link time errors in chromium with sanitizer
coverage enabled,
which is fixed by https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/131929 .
The second commit of this PR also contains a fix for a runtime failure
in chromium reported
in
https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/126240#issuecomment-2730216384
.
Fixes https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/issues/19772
This caused link errors when building with sancov. See comment on the PR.

Reland https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/75912
The differences of this PR between
https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/75912 are:
- Fixed a regression in `Decl::isInAnotherModuleUnit()` in DeclBase.cpp
pointed by @mizvekov and add the corresponding test.
- Fixed the regression in windows
https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/issues/97447. The changes are in
`CodeGenModule::getVTableLinkage` from
`clang/lib/CodeGen/CGVTables.cpp`. According to the feedbacks from MSVC
devs, the linkage of vtables won't affected by modules. So I simply
skipped the case for MSVC.
Given this is more or less fundamental to the use of modules. I hope we
can backport this to 19.x.
