link errors when building LLVM as a Windows DLL with polly project included

[andrurogerz]

Overview

When configured to build as a Windows DLL, LLVM does not build successfully when the polly project is included.

bugpoint.cpp.obj : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol "struct llvm::PassPluginLibraryInfo __cdecl getPollyPluginInfo(void)" (?getPollyPluginInfo@@YA?AUPassPluginLibraryInfo@llvm@@XZ) referenced in function main
bin\bugpoint.exe : fatal error LNK1120: 1 unresolved externals

Fixing this error does not appear to be a simple matter of adding an LLVM_ABI annotation to the getPollyPluginInfo symbol. It needs further investigation.

Repro

On Windows 11:

git checkout 25d1285eecbab731eaf418c8aab44e4eb5f9e538

cmake -B build -S llvm -G Ninja -DLLVM_ENABLE_PROJECTS="clang;clang-tools-extra;llvm;polly" -DLLVM_OPTIMIZED_TABLEGEN=ON -DLLVM_BUILD_TESTS=ON -DLLVM_BUILD_EXAMPLES=ON -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Release -DCMAKE_C_COMPILER_LAUNCHER=sccache -DCMAKE_CXX_COMPILER_LAUNCHER=sccache -DCLANG_LINK_CLANG_DYLIB=OFF -DLLVM_BUILD_LLVM_DYLIB=ON -DLLVM_BUILD_LLVM_DYLIB_VIS=ON -DLLVM_LINK_LLVM_DYLIB=ON

ninja -C build

Observe build errors.
