This patch changes the linkage type of a compiler-rt func
(__llvm_write_binary_ids) to fix the sanitizer-windows bot
build issue introduced in change f984ac271.
The issue is as the following:
C:\b\slave\sanitizer-windows\llvm-project\compiler-rt\lib\profile\InstrProfilingInternal.h(201):
error C2496: '__llvm_write_binary_ids': 'selectany' can only be applied
to data items with external linkage
We need the compiler generated variable to override the weak symbol of
the same name inside the profile runtime, but using LinkOnceODRLinkage
results in weak symbol being emitted in which case the symbol selected
by the linker is going to depend on the order of inputs which can be
fragile.
This change replaces the use of weak definition inside the runtime with
a weak alias. We place the compiler generated symbol inside a COMDAT
group so dead definition can be garbage collected by the linker.
We also disable the use of runtime counter relocation on Darwin since
Mach-O doesn't support weak external references, but Darwin already uses
a different continous mode that relies on overmapping so runtime counter
relocation isn't needed there.

This avoids the test failure that was introduced in rG32bddad where
this function pulls in the rest of InstrProfilingFile.c which is
undesirable in use cases when profile runtime is being used without
the rest of libc.
This also allows additional cleanup by eliminating another variable
from platforms that don't need it.
