With ThinLTO, the linker runs sanitizer passes at link time via
-fsanitize= flags, where it has whole-program visibility. Running
them at bitcode emission too double-instruments every module,
producing hundreds of "Redundant instrumentation detected" warnings.
Per-function sanitize/no_sanitize attributes are preserved in the
bitcode and respected by the linker's pass.

- Add -lto:thin and -lto:thin-files CLI flags with validation
- Emit LLVM bitcode (.bc) instead of object files when LTO is enabled
- Pass -flto=thin and -flto-jobs to clang/lld linkers
- Guard linkage corrections to skip declarations without definitions
(required for LTO where declarations appear across modules)
- Allow module-per-file with LTO even at higher optimization levels

- Add intrinsics.objc_super()
- Emit objc_msgSendSuper2 calls when an objc method call is combined with objc_super(self)
- Fix objc_block return value ABI for large struct returns
- Fix objc_implement method wrappers bad ABI for large struct returns and indirect args
- Simplify parameter forwarding for objc_imlpement methods
- Add intrinsics.objc_instancetype to mimi Objective-C instancetype* returns
This facilitates returning the correct type on subclasses when calling mehtods
such as `alloc`, `init`, `retain`, etc.
- Refactor Objective-C class implementations generation so that hierarchies are properly initialized
- Better codegen for context passing with ivar-based autocontext
- Allow @superclass on imported objc-c objects
- Better codegen for block forwarding invoker, arguments are forwarded directly
If no string parameter is provided, then one will be generated from the struct field tags.
The attribute must be applied if the automatic struct field tag approach is to be used.
