I think that we should actually make this computed - the name of the symbol is `__dso_handle` which is decorated with the user label prefix of `_` to give you `___dso_handle`.  We have the information about the user label prefixes in LLVM, why not make that explicit here?  I don't think that the cost is really that high.

hmm `DataLayout` is under the `IR` folder though. I'm not sure how else to get at the user label, but we could probably just make it a global constant in lld-macho since the prefix applies to all macOS targets?
