Summary:
For builds with LLVM_BUILD_LLVM_DYLIB=ON and BUILD_SHARED_LIBS=OFF
this change makes all symbols in the target specific libraries hidden
by default.
A new macro called LLVM_EXTERNAL_VISIBILITY has been added to mark symbols in these
libraries public, which is mainly needed for the definitions of the
LLVMInitialize* functions.
This patch reduces the number of public symbols in libLLVM.so by about
25%. This should improve load times for the dynamic library and also
make abi checker tools, like abidiff require less memory when analyzing
libLLVM.so
One side-effect of this change is that for builds with
LLVM_BUILD_LLVM_DYLIB=ON and LLVM_LINK_LLVM_DYLIB=ON some unittests that
access symbols that are no longer public will need to be statically linked.
Before and after public symbol counts (using gcc 8.2.1, ld.bfd 2.31.1):
nm before/libLLVM-9svn.so | grep ' [A-Zuvw] ' | wc -l
36221
nm after/libLLVM-9svn.so | grep ' [A-Zuvw] ' | wc -l
26278

The unit test uses GlobalISel but the dependency is not listed in the
CMakeLists.txt file which causes failures in shared libs build with GCC.
This just adds the dependency.

Reverse the logic for valid tail predication instructions and create
a whitelist instead. Added other instruction groups that aren't
obviously safe:
- instructions that 'narrow' their result.
- lane moves.
- byte swapping instructions.
- interleaving loads and stores.
- cross-beat carries.
- top/bottom instructions.
- complex operations.
Hopefully we should be able to add more of these instructions to the
whitelist, once we have a more concrete idea of the transform.

Set this bit for the MVE reduction instructions to prevent a loop from
becoming tail predicated in their presence.
