Force visibility of llvm::Any to externalupstream/llvmorg-12.0.1-rc1llvmorg-12.0.1-rc1
llvm::Any::TypeId::Id relies on the uniqueness of the address of a static variable defined in a template function. hidden visibility implies vague linkage for that variable, which does not guarantee the uniqueness of the address across a binary and a shared library. This totally breaks the implementation of llvm::Any. Ideally, setting visibility to llvm::Any::TypeId::Id should be enough, unfortunately this doesn't work as expected and we lack time (before 12.0.1 release) to understand why setting the visibility to llvm::Any does work. See https://gcc.gnu.org/wiki/Visibility and https://gcc.gnu.org/onlinedocs/gcc/Vague-Linkage.html for more information on that topic. Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D101972 (cherry picked from commit 3d3abc22b3ef189813a3b9061c2a90ba86a32f44)
