LOG: [lld:elf] Weaken the requirement for a computed binding to be STB_LOCAL

Given the following scenario:

```
// Cat.cpp
struct Animal { virtual void makeNoise() const = 0; };
struct Cat : Animal { void makeNoise() const override; };

extern "C" int puts(char const *);
void Cat::makeNoise() const { puts("Meow"); }
void doThingWithCat(Animal *a) { static_cast<Cat *>(a)->makeNoise(); }

// CatUser.cpp
struct Animal { virtual void makeNoise() const = 0; };
struct Cat : Animal { void makeNoise() const override; };

void doThingWithCat(Animal *a);

void useDoThingWithCat() {
  Cat *d = new Cat;
  doThingWithCat(d);
}

// cat.ver
{
  global: _Z17useDoThingWithCatv;
  local: *;
};

$ clang++ Cat.cpp CatUser.cpp -fpic -flto=thin -fwhole-program-vtables
-shared -O3 -fuse-ld=lld -Wl,--lto-whole-program-visibility
-Wl,--version-script,cat.ver
```

We cannot devirtualize `Cat::makeNoise`. The issue is complex:

Due to `-fsplit-lto-unit` and usage of type metadata, we place the Cat
vtable declaration into module 0 and the Cat vtable definition with type
metadata into module 1, causing duplicate entries (Undefined followed by
Defined) in the `lto::InputFile::symbols()` output.
In `BitcodeFile::parse`, after processing the `Undefined` then the
`Defined`, the final state is `Defined`.
In `BitcodeCompiler::add`, for the first symbol, `computeBinding`
returns `STB_LOCAL`, then we reset it to `Undefined` because it is
prevailing (`versionId` is `preserved`). For the second symbol, because
the state is now `Undefined`, `computeBinding` returns `STB_GLOBAL`,
causing `ExportDynamic` to be true and suppressing devirtualization.

In D77280, the `computeBinding` change used a stricter `isDefined()`
condition to make weak``Lazy` symbol work.
This patch relaxes the condition to weaker `!isLazy()` to keep it
working while making the devirtualization work as well.
