Summary:
This helper function creates a ctor function, which calls sanitizer's
init function with given arguments. This constructor is then expected
to be added to module's ctors. The patch helps unifying how sanitizer
constructor functions are created, and how init functions are called
across all sanitizers.

Summary:
Instead of making a local copy of `checkInterfaceFunction` for each
sanitizer, move the function in a common place.

The language reference says that:
"If a symbol appears in the @llvm.used list, then the compiler,
assembler, and linker are required to treat the symbol as if there is
a reference to the symbol that it cannot see"
Since even the linker cannot see the reference, we must assume that
the reference can be using the symbol table. For example, a user can add
__attribute__((used)) to a debug helper function like dump and use it from
a debugger.
