In D88493, I'm trying to get the llc's default for -data-sections to be correct for AIX and introduced `HasExplicitDataSections`. If `HasExplicitDataSections` is not set, then llc would think there is -data-sections set, so it would just take the target triple's default, which makes `DataSections` setting to be useless.

As I already mentioned in my own comment in this patch, one of the way to achieve that could be make DataSections an enum option in TargetOptions, so that it could have a `Default` enum which could mean true or false depending on the triple setting. But it could mean a bigger refactoring to this option.
