[asan] Support dead code stripping on Mach-O platforms
On OS X El Capitan and iOS 9, the linker supports a new section attribute, live_support, which allows dead stripping to remove dead globals along with the ASAN metadata about them. With this change __asan_global structures are emitted in a new __DATA,__asan_globals section on Darwin. Additionally, there is a __DATA,__asan_liveness section with the live_support attribute. Each entry in this section is simply a tuple that binds together the liveness of a global variable and its ASAN metadata structure. Thus the metadata structure will be alive if and only if the global it references is also alive. Review: http://reviews.llvm.org/D16737 llvm-svn: 264645
