PGO: Statically generate data structures
In instrumentation-based profiling, we need a set of data structures to represent the counters. Previously, these were built up during static initialization. Now, they're shoved into a specially-named section so that they show up as an array. As a consequence of the reorganizing symbols, instrumentation data structures for linkonce functions are now correctly coalesced. This is the first step in a larger project to minimize runtime overhead and dependencies in instrumentation-based profilng. The larger picture includes removing all initialization overhead and making the dependency on libc optional. <rdar://problem/15943240> llvm-svn: 204079
