[profile] Make {__start_,__stop_}__llvm_prf_* symbols undefined weak

To make a kind of metadata section usage work, we want to drop the
`__start_/__stop_ references retain C identifier name sections` rule from LLD (see D96914).

If an application has no `__llvm_prf_data` input section surviving --gc-sections,
LLD will error for undefined hidden `{__start_,__stop_}__llvm_prf_*` from `libclang_rt.profile-*`.
Other `__llvm_prf_*` sections have similar issues.

Making the references weak can address the problem.
This probably enables the opportunity to drop zero size dummy sections in `InstrProfilingPlatformLinux.c`.
