This is similar to r322317, but for visibility. It is not as neat
because we have to special case extern_weak.
The idea is the same as the previous change, make the transition to
explicit dso_local easier for the frontends. With this they only have
to add dso_local to symbols where we need some external information to
decide if it is dso_local (like it being part of an ELF executable).

While updating clang tests for having clang set dso_local I noticed
that:
- There are *a lot* of tests to update.
- Many of the updates are redundant.
They are redundant because a GV is "obviously dso_local". This patch
starts formalizing that a bit by requiring that internal and private
GVs be dso_local too. Since they all are, we don't have to print
dso_local to the textual representation, making it a bit more compact
and easier to read.

Summary:
COFF requires that every comdat contain a symbol with the same name as
the comdat. ThinLTOBitcodeWriter renames symbols, which may cause this
requirement to be violated. This change avoids such violations by
renaming comdats if their leaders are renamed. It also keeps comdats
together when splitting modules.
