[COFF] Ignore semicolons in module definition identifiers

Details

Summary

The NSS project's .def files make heavy use of semicolons in a frightening attempt at portability: https://hg.mozilla.org/projects/nss/raw-file/tip/lib/ckfw/capi/nsscapi.def

lld-link was treating the semicolon as part of the export name, resulting in unresolved symbols. This patch includes ';' in the list of characters to split on.

Ooh, that's an amazing piece of super hacky code. It's even funny. :) It feels like it would probably be much easier to prepare separate file for each platform.

Anyway, I believe this patch is fine, but can you add a testcase?

Added a test. If this looks OK, do you mind landing it for me?

@ruiu Does this patch look ok?
