CodeGen: handle llvm.used properly for COFF
`llvm.used` contains a list of pointers to named values which the
compiler, assembler, and linker are required to treat as if there is a
reference that they cannot see. Ensure that the symbols are preserved
by adding an explicit `-include` reference to the linker command.
