Purpose

This patch is one in a series of code-mods that annotate LLVM’s public interface for export. This patch annotates the ABI Breaking Checks interface in llvm/config. The annotations currently have no meaningful impact on the LLVM build; however, they are a prerequisite to support an LLVM Windows DLL (shared library) build.

Background

The effort to build LLVM as a Windows DLL is tracked in #109483. Additional context is provided in this discourse, and documentation for LLVM_ABI and related annotations is found in the LLVM repo here.

Validation

Local builds and tests to validate cross-platform compatibility. This included llvm, clang, and lldb on the following configurations:

  • Windows with MSVC
  • Windows with Clang
  • Linux with GCC
  • Linux with Clang
  • Darwin with Clang

@compnerd, @vgvassilev I think this is a reasonable solution here, but let me know if you have other ideas. Thanks

It looks like this change created a circular dependency between modules:

Thanks for flagging this @guy-david. I put up a revert PR #147965. If someone can approve and merge I would appreciate that.

@compnerd I think I will need to go back to something like my original version which avoided the dependency: 981b9f7.

## Purpose
This PR is a re-application of #145575 with independent definition of
`ABI_BREAKING_EXPORT_ABI` that does not depend on
`llvm/Support/Compiler.h`. It is one in a series of code-mods that
annotate LLVM’s public interface for export. This patch annotates the
ABI Breaking Checks interface in llvm/config. The annotations currently
have no meaningful impact on the LLVM build; however, they are a
prerequisite to support an LLVM Windows DLL (shared library) build.

## Background
The effort to build LLVM as a Windows DLL is tracked in #109483.
Additional context is provided in [this

and documentation for `LLVM_ABI` and related annotations is found in the
