ThinLTO: add early "dead-stripping" on the Index

Summary:
Using the linker-supplied list of "preserved" symbols, we can compute
the list of "dead" symbols, i.e. the one that are not reachable from
a "preserved" symbol transitively on the reference graph.
Right now we are using this information to mark these functions as
non-eligible for import.

The impact is two folds:
- Reduction of compile time: we don't import these functions anywhere
  or import the function these symbols are calling.
- The limited number of import/export leads to better internalization.

Patch originally by Mehdi Amini.
