[codeview] Expose -gcodeview-ghash for global type hashing
Summary:
Experience has shown that the functionality is useful. It makes linking
optimized clang with debug info for me a lot faster, 20s to 13s. The
type merging phase of PDB writing goes from 10s to 3s.
This removes the LLVM cl::opt and replaces it with a metadata flag.
After this change, users can do the following to use ghash:
- add -gcodeview-ghash to compiler flags
- replace /DEBUG with /DEBUG:GHASH in linker flags
