[libcxx] Fix compile for BUILD_EXTERNAL_THREAD_LIBRARY

[Nicu]

Summary

Fix compilation with -DLIBCXX_BUILD_EXTERNAL_THREAD_LIBRARY when using clang. Now linking target 'cxx_external_threads' with 'cxx-headers'. Fix mismatching visibility for libcpp_timed_backoff_policy function in file <__threading_support>.

I believe it would be better to use target_link_libraries(cxx_external_threads PRIVATE cxx-headers). This will setup the right flags for using the current libc++ headers.

[Nicu]

Updated CMakeList.txt to link against 'cxx-headers' rather than just including 'libcxx/include'.
Updated commit's summary to reflect this change.

Did you run the tests before committing this? It looks like it broke several builders, e.g. http://lab.llvm.org:8011/builders/libcxx-libcxxabi-x86_64-linux-debian-noexceptions/builds/2370

[miyuki]

Sorry about that. I've reverted the change and will investigate.

Thanks. I think the fix is just to remove the inline before _LIBCPP_THREAD_ABI_VISIBILITY, since _LIBCPP_THREAD_ABI_VISIBILITY already contains inline when not in the external threading library mode.

My bad, I did run tests but using the BUILD_EXTERNAL_THREAD_LIBRARY mode only, and forgot about the normal config.
As for the fix, if I remove that inline it breaks the external threading mode, but in order to fix that do you think is safe to change line 43 in __threading_support to #define _LIBCPP_THREAD_ABI_VISIBILITY inline _LIBCPP_FUNC_VIS. Adding the inline there?

Actually, looking at it again, the fix is to always use _LIBCPP_INLINE_VISIBILITY. Please rebase your change on top of 21a1a263a6d9c0c44ef8eb0744786e2aa5d59e53

[miyuki]

Thanks!

    This reverts commit 3b71f91558ff8b569199547efe800cb501c3cf94.

    The commit is breaking some build bots.

Has it been committed again with a fix? I don't see it -- what's the status?

Hi Louis, this is the revision that fixes the compilation with EXTERNAL_LIBRARY (https://reviews.llvm.org/D86773), without changes to the visibility in the operator. As you fixed that already.

[miyuki]

I've just committed D86773

Ah, I was confused, thanks for clarifying!
