This patch allows the Swift compiler to emit calls to `__tsan_external_write` before starting any modifying access, which will cause TSan to detect races on arrays, dictionaries and other classes defined in non-instrumented modules. Races on collections from the Swift standard library and user-defined structs and a frequent cause of subtle bugs and it's important that TSan detects those on top of existing LLVM IR instrumentation, which already detects races in direct memory accesses.

For a linker init mutex with lazy flag setup
(no __tsan_mutex_create call), it is possible that
no lock/unlock happened before the destroy call.
Then when destroy runs we still don't know that
it is a linker init mutex and will emulate a memory write.
This in turn can lead to false positives as the mutex
is in fact linker initialized.
Support linker init flag in destroy annotation to resolve this.

There are several problems with the current annotations (AnnotateRWLockCreate and friends):
- they don't fully support deadlock detection (we need a hook _before_ mutex lock)
- they don't support insertion of random artificial delays to perturb execution (again we need a hook _before_ mutex lock)
- they don't support setting extended mutex attributes like read/write reentrancy (only "linker init" was bolted on)
- they don't support setting mutex attributes if a mutex don't have a "constructor" (e.g. static, Java, Go mutexes)
- they don't ignore synchronization inside of lock/unlock operations which leads to slowdown and false negatives
The new annotations solve of the above problems. See tsan_interface.h for the interface specification and comments.
