Emit static constexpr member as available_externally definition
By exposing the constant initializer, the optimizer can fold many of these constructs. This is a recommit of r311857 that was reverted in r311898 because an assert was hit when building Chromium. We have to take into account that the GlobalVariable may be first created with a different type than the initializer. This can happen for example when the variable is a struct with tail padding while the initializer does not have padding. In such case, the variable needs to be destroyed an replaced with a new one with the type of the initializer. Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D34992 llvm-svn: 312512
