[ELF] - Make IR symbols be visible when doing relocatable link.

[grimar]

Summary

This is PR33097.
Previously when doing relocatable link, all IR symbols were absent
in result object file. Patch makes external symbols to be exported.

[davide]

This is fine, but maybe too conservative.
You just need to keep externals, not everything in a relocatable (unless being in a relocatable implies being external, in which case, that needs a comment :)
I proposed an alternative https://reviews.llvm.org/D36959 (feel free to take a look and review/reply)

[davide]

Apologies, this should be fine.
Peter made me realize we should never see STB_LOCAL here.

LGTM with a comment explaining why we must preserve these symbols.

ELF/LTO.cpp

for (const lto::InputFile::Symbol &ObjSym : Obj.symbols()) {
 
     // Ideally we shouldn't check for SF_Undefined but currently IRObjectFile
     // reports two symbols for module ASM defined. Without this check, lld
     // flags an undefined in IR with a definition in ASM as prevailing.
     // Once IRObjectFile is fixed to report only one symbol this hack can
     // be removed.
     R.Prevailing = !ObjSym.isUndefined() && B->getFile() == &F;
 
-    R.VisibleToRegularObj = Sym->IsUsedInRegularObj ||
+    R.VisibleToRegularObj = Config->Relocatable || Sym->IsUsedInRegularObj ||
                             (R.Prevailing && Sym->includeInDynsym()) ||
                             UsedStartStop.count(ObjSym.getSectionName());
     if (R.Prevailing)
       undefine(Sym);
     R.LinkerRedefined = Config->RenamedSymbols.count(Sym);
   }
   checkError(LTOObj->add(std::move(F.Obj), Resols));
 }
