LOG: [libc++] Re-apply the use of ABI tags to provide per-TU insulation

This commit re-applies 9ee97ce3b830, which was reverted by 61d417ce
because it broke the LLDB data formatter tests. It also re-applies
6148c79a (the manual GN change associated to it).

-  This macro controls whether symbols hidden from the ABI with `_LIBCPP_HIDE_FROM_ABI`

-  linked image. This macro is defined to either 0 or 1. When it is defined to
-  1, translation units compiled with 
diff erent versions of libc++ can be linked
-  together, since all non ABI-facing functions are local to each translation unit.
-  This allows static archives built with 
diff erent versions of libc++ to be linked
-  together. This also means that functions marked with `_LIBCPP_HIDE_FROM_ABI`
-  are not guaranteed to have the same address across translation unit boundaries.
-
-  When the macro is defined to 0, there is no guarantee that translation units
-  compiled with 
diff erent versions of libc++ can interoperate. However, this
-  leads to code size improvements, since non ABI-facing functions can be
-  deduplicated across translation unit boundaries.
-
-  This macro can be defined by users to control the behavior they want from
-  libc++. The default value of this macro (0 or 1) is controlled by whether
-  `_LIBCPP_HIDE_FROM_ABI_PER_TU_BY_DEFAULT` is defined, which is intended to
-  be used by vendors only (see below).

-**_LIBCPP_HIDE_FROM_ABI_PER_TU_BY_DEFAULT**

-  When the macro is defined, per TU ABI insulation is enabled by default, and
-  `_LIBCPP_HIDE_FROM_ABI_PER_TU` is defined to 1 unless overridden by users.
-  Otherwise, per TU ABI insulation is disabled by default, and
-  `_LIBCPP_HIDE_FROM_ABI_PER_TU` is defined to 0 unless overridden by users.
-
-  This macro is intended for vendors to control whether they want to ship
-  libc++ with per TU ABI insulation enabled by default. Users can always
-  control the behavior they want by defining `_LIBCPP_HIDE_FROM_ABI_PER_TU`

+// This macro marks a symbol as being hidden from libc++'s ABI. This is achieved
+// on two levels:
+// 1. The symbol is given hidden visibility, which ensures that users won't start exporting
+//    symbols from their dynamic library by means of using the libc++ headers. This ensures
+//    that those symbols stay private to the dynamic library in which it is defined.
+//
+// 2. The symbol is given an ABI tag that changes with each version of libc++. This ensures
+//    that no ODR violation can arise from mixing two TUs compiled with 
diff erent versions
+//    of libc++ where we would have changed the definition of a symbol. If the symbols shared
+//    the same name, the ODR would require that their definitions be token-by-token equivalent,
+//    which basically prevents us from being able to make any change to any function in our
+//    headers. Using this ABI tag ensures that the symbol name is "bumped" artificially at
+//    each release, which lets us change the definition of these symbols at our leisure.
+//    Note that historically, this has been achieved in various ways, including force-inlining
+//    all functions or giving internal linkage to all functions. Both these (previous) solutions
+//    suffer from drawbacks that lead notably to code bloat.
+//
+// Note that we use _LIBCPP_EXCLUDE_FROM_EXPLICIT_INSTANTIATION to ensure that we don't depend
+// on _LIBCPP_HIDE_FROM_ABI methods of classes explicitly instantiated in the dynamic library.
+//
+// TODO: We provide a escape hatch with _LIBCPP_NO_ABI_TAG for folks who want to avoid increasing
+//       the length of symbols with an ABI tag. In practice, we should remove the escape hatch and
+//       use compression mangling instead, see https://github.com/itanium-cxx-abi/cxx-abi/issues/70.
