cc file using pragma comment to inject /manifestdependency option to the linker
Several of the Visual Studio project templates that produce GUI apps use
#pragma comment(linker, "/manifestdependency:...") directives to add support
for themed controls (WinXP+). lld-link currently errors if it encounters a
/manifestdependency option in the .drectve section.
The project templates place the directive in the PCH file, so multiple .obj
files will include the option.
It's relatively easy enough to workaround, e.g. see
<a href="https://github.com/google/UIforETW/pull/123">https://github.com/google/UIforETW/pull/123</a>, but obviously lld-link supporting
it would be keen.
