[lld-macho] Add support for weak references
Weak references need not necessarily be satisfied at runtime (but they must still be satisfied at link time). So symbol resolution still works as per usual, but we now pass around a flag -- ultimately emitting it in the bind table -- to indicate if a given dylib symbol is a weak reference. ld64's behavior for symbols that have both weak and strong references is a bit bizarre. For non-function symbols, it will emit a weak import. For function symbols (those referenced by BRANCH relocs), it will emit a regular import. I'm not sure what value there is in that behavior, and since emulating it will make our implementation more complex, I've decided to treat regular weakrefs like function symbol ones for now.
