[InstrProfiling] Emit the runtime hook when no counters are lowered

The API verification tool tapi has difficulty processing frameworks
which enable code coverage, but which have no code. The profile lowering
pass does not emit the runtime hook in this case because no counters are
lowered.

While the hook is not needed for program correctness (the profile
runtime doesn't have to be linked in), it's needed to allow tapi to
validate the exported symbol set of instrumented binaries.

It was not possible to add a workaround in tapi for empty binaries due
to an architectural issue: tapi generates its expected symbol set before
it inspects a binary. Changing that model has a higher cost than simply
forcing llvm to always emit the runtime hook.
