Actually, StmtVisitor added dll export attribute to local static variable in lambda function. And static variables seems exported.

But I found other issue in current implementation, some cxx method decls passed to emitting function before local static variable checker adds dll export attributes. In such case local static variables are not exported and link failure happens.

So let me try to use DLLImportFunctionVisitor in CodeGenModule::shouldEmitFunction for exported function instead of processing/checking dll attribute around SemaDeclCXX.
