As suggested by Reid:
- class has GVA_Internal linkage -> internal
- thunk has return adjustment -> weak_odr, to handle evil corner case [1]
- all other normal methods -> linkonce_odr
1. Evil corner case:
struct Incomplete;
struct A { int a; virtual A *bar(); };
struct B { int b; virtual B *foo(Incomplete); };
struct C : A, B { int c; virtual C *foo(Incomplete); };
C c;
Here, the thunk for C::foo() will be emitted when C::foo() is defined, which
might be in a different translation unit, so it needs to be weak_odr.

This allows us to compile the following kind of code, which occurs in MSVC
headers:
template <typename> struct S {
__declspec(dllimport) static int x;
};
template <typename T> int S<T>::x;
The definition works similarly to a dllimport inline function definition and
gets available_externally linkage.

This implements the central part of support for dllimport/dllexport on
classes: allowing the attribute on class declarations, inheriting it
to class members, and forcing emission of exported members. It's based
on Nico Rieck's patch from http://reviews.llvm.org/D1099.
This patch doesn't propagate dllexport to bases that are template
specializations, which is an interesting problem. It also doesn't
look at the rules when redeclaring classes with different attributes,
I'd like to do that separately.
