Subject: [PATCH] [llvm][CFI] Do not canonicalize COFF functions in a comdat

COFF requires that a function exists with the same name as a comdat. Not
having this key function results in `LLVM ERROR: Associative COMDAT
symbol '...' does not exist.` CFI by default will attempt to
canonicalize a function by appending `.cfi` to its name which allows
external references to refer to the new canonical alias, but it does not
change the comdat name. We can just change the comdat name since symbol
resolution has already happened before LTO.
