Teresa Johnson b78ea510c1 Add new EliminateAvailableExternally module pass, which is performed in
O2 compiles just before GlobalDCE, unless we are preparing for LTO.

This pass eliminates available externally globals (turning them into
declarations), regardless of whether they are dead/unreferenced, since
we are guaranteed to have a copy available elsewhere at link time.
This enables additional opportunities for GlobalDCE.

If we are preparing for LTO (e.g. a -flto -c compile), the pass is not
included as we want to preserve available externally functions for possible
link time inlining. The FE indicates whether we are doing an -flto compile
via the new PrepareForLTO flag on the PassManagerBuilder.
