Add link-time detection of LLVM_ABI_BREAKING_CHECKS mismatch
ClosedPublic

Details

Summary

LLVM will define a symbol, either EnableABIBreakingChecks or
DisableABIBreakingChecks depending on the configuration setting for
LLVM_ABI_BREAKING_CHECKS.

The llvm-config.h header will add weak references to these symbols in
every clients that includes this header. This should ensure that
a mismatch triggers a link failure (or a load time failure for DSO).

On MSVC, the pragma "detect_mismatch" is used instead.

The non-msvc side of this otherwise LGTM, btw.

I'll wait for @rnk for the Windows side.

Yeah I noticed when testing, but apparently I git stash and failed to amend the commit before running arc diff
