[PATCH] D20258: IR: Introduce can_omit_from_dynsym attribute.

[Rafael Espíndola via llvm-commits]

As for naming, I would probably name it after what it checks, not what
it is currently used for.

How about making the attribute be just "address_not_used_in_module"?
The other properties (like being linkonce_odr) are easy to check
without having to walk all uses.

Should the verifier check if this the property is invalidly set?

Cheers,
Rafael
