This allows using custom export thunks instead of default generated ones. This is useful for performance in cases where transfering between JIT and ARM64EC code is more expensive than just emulating the whole function (but it's still useful to have ARM64EC version so that ARM64EC callers don't call into the emulator). It's also useful for compatibility, where applications have specific expectations about function contents (like syscall functions).

Subject: [PATCH] [LLD][COFF] Generate redirection metadata for custom ARM64EC
 export thunks.

This allows using custom export thunks instead of default generated ones.
This is useful for performance in cases where transfering between JIT and
ARM64EC code is more expensive than just emulating the whole function (but
it's still useful to have ARM64EC version so that ARM64EC callers don't
call into the emulator). It's also useful for compatibility, where
applications have specific expectations about function contents (like
syscall functions).
