[dsymutil] Don't mark forward declarations as canonical.

Summary

This patch completes the work done by Frederic Riss (@friss) to
addresses dsymutil incorrectly considering forward declaration as
canonical during uniquing. This resulted in references to the forward
declaration even after the definition was encountered.

In addition to the test provided by Alexander Shaposhnikov (@alexshap)
in D29609, I added another test to cover several scenarios that were
mentioned in his conversation with Fred. We now also check that uniquing
still occurs after the definition was encountered.

For more context please refer to D29609

mostly nitpicking :-)

test/tools/dsymutil/X86/odr-fwd-declaration.cpp
114

broken

115

referenced

tools/dsymutil/DwarfLinker.cpp
195

is there a more accurate description that "point to"? I.e., does this include a struct that has a fwddecl as a member?

1202–1204

document the return value?

2212

extra newline? not sure if this was intentional

2262

maybe is complete?

2287–2289

what does the return value mean?

@JDevlieghere, @friss, @aprantl - many thanks for working on this and getting the fix to the upstream!

Thanks for the review @aprantl! About the comment for the Incomplete member: can this strictly occur for members or has this a broader scope?

A few nits, but this mostly LGTM

test/tools/dsymutil/X86/odr-fwd-declaration2.cpp
26

Add a CHECK-NOT: {{DW_TAG|NULL}} before this

85

Add the same CHECK-NOT here

98

You are reusing REF1. I suppose this those the right thing (overwrites it), but please use a different name.

134–135

As the bellow doesn't really test bPTr, bRef and bPtrToField, I would rephrase this as:
"Finally we confirm that uniquing isn't broken by checking that further references to 'struct A' point to its now complete definition.

tools/dsymutil/DwarfLinker.cpp
195

If it fits, "Does this DIE transitively refer to an incomplete decl?" would be better I think

Thanks @friss, I've updated the diff with your feedback.
