Nikita Popov a70ef4cb49 Set PrepareForThinLTO flag when using ThinLTO
The LLVM PassManager has a PrepareForThinLTO flag, which is intended
when compilation occurs in conjunction with linking by ThinLTO. The
flag has two effects:

 * The NameAnonGlobal pass is run after all other passes, which
   ensures that all globals have a name.
 * In optimized builds, a number of late passes (mainly related to
   vectorization and unrolling) are disabled, on the rationale that
   these a) will increase codesize of the intermediate artifacts
   and b) will be run by ThinLTO again anyway.

This patch enables the use of PrepareForThinLTO if Thin or ThinLocal
linking is used.

The background for this change is the CI failure in #49479, which
we assume to be caused by the NameAnonGlobal pass not being run.
As this changes which passes LLVM runs, this might have performance
(or other) impact, so we want to land this separately.

This directory currently contains some LLVM support code. This will generally
be sent upstream to LLVM in time; for now it lives here.

NOTE: the LLVM C++ ABI is subject to between-version breakage and must *never*
be exposed to Rust. To allow for easy auditing of that, all Rust-exposed types
must be typedef-ed as "LLVMXyz", or "LLVMRustXyz" if they were defined here.

Functions that return a failure status and leave the error in
the LLVM last error should return an LLVMRustResult rather than an
int or anything to avoid confusion.

When translating enums, add a single `Other` variant as the first
one to allow for new variants to be added. It should abort when used
as an input.

All other types must not be typedef-ed as such.
