<summary>Changes</summary>

This pull request adds initial support for compiling Objective-C to 
WebAssembly. I tested my changes with 
[libobjc2](https://github.com/gnustep/libobjc2) and the 
[swift-corelibs-blocksruntime](https://github.com/swiftlang/swift-corelibs-blocksruntime/pull/7).

There are two outstanding issues, which I cannot fix as deeper knowledge of the 
subsystems is required:
1. Symbols marked as explicitly hidden in code generation are exported
2. Clang crashes in SelectionDAG when compiling an Objective-C try/catch block 
with `-fwasm-exceptions`

### First Issue

Emscripten is processing the generated `.wasm` file in `emscripten.py` and 
checks if all exported symbols are valid javascript identifiers 
([tools/js_manipulation.py#L104](https://github.com/emscripten-core/emscripten/blob/e43e97f16fd0ed82bb0a1f25d6e1b28b2c8c08c3/tools/js_manipulation.py#L104)).
 However, hidden symbols such as `.objc_init` are intentionally an invalid C 
identifier.

The core of the problem is that symbols with the `WASM_SYMBOL_NO_STRIP` 
attribute are exported when targeting Emscripten 
(https://reviews.llvm.org/D62542). This attribute is added to the symbol during 
relocation in  `WasmObjectWriter::recordRelocation`. So we are accidentally 
exporting a lot of hidden symbols and not only ones generated by ObjC CG...

I'm currently hacking around this by not exporting no-strip symbols. This is 
the default behaviour for Wasm.

### Second Issue

Here is a minimal example that triggers the crash. 

```objc
#include&lt;stdio.h&gt;

int main(void) {
        int ret = 0;
        @<!-- -->try {
        }
        @<!-- -->catch (id a)
        {
                ret = 1;
                 puts("abc");
        }

        return ret;
}
```
The following assertion is triggered:

```
clang: 
/home/vm/llvm-project/llvm/lib/Target/WebAssembly/WebAssemblyExceptionInfo.cpp:124:
 void llvm::WebAssemblyExceptionInfo::recalculate(MachineFunction &amp;, 
MachineDominatorTree &amp;, const MachineDominanceFrontier &amp;): Assertion 
`EHInfo' failed.
```
Here is the crash report 
[main-c3884.zip](https://github.com/user-attachments/files/23677308/main-c3884.zip).

You can use `emcc` with a modified LLVM build by exporting `EM_LLVM_ROOT` 
before sourcing `emsdk/emsdk_env.sh`:
```sh
emcc -fobjc-runtime=gnustep-2.2 -fwasm-exceptions -c main.m
```

or just invoke clang directly:

```sh
/home/vm/llvm-build-wasm/bin/clang -target wasm32-unknown-emscripten -mllvm 
-combiner-global-alias-analysis=false -mllvm -wasm-enable-sjlj -mllvm 
-wasm-use-legacy-eh=false -mllvm -disable-lsr 
--sysroot=/home/vm/emsdk/upstream/emscripten/cache/sysroot -DEMSCRIPTEN 
-fobjc-runtime=gnustep-2.2 -fwasm-exceptions -c main.m
```

## Building libobjc2 and the BlocksRuntime

### Building the BlocksRuntime
```sh
cmake 
-DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=$EMSDK/upstream/emscripten/cmake/Modules/Platform/Emscripten.cmake
   -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/home/vm/demo-install -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug -B 
build -G Ninja
```

### Building libobjc2
```sh
cmake 
-DCMAKE_TOOLCHAIN_FILE=$EMSDK/upstream/emscripten/cmake/Modules/Platform/Emscripten.cmake
   -DCMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX=/home/vm/demo-install 
-DBlocksRuntime_LIBRARIES=/home/vm/demo-install/lib/libBlocksRuntime.a 
-DBlocksRuntime_INCLUDE_DIR=/home/vm/demo-install/include/BlocksRuntime 
-DEMBEDDED_BLOCKS_RUNTIME=OFF -DTESTS=OFF  -B build  -DCMAKE_BUILD_TYPE=Debug  
-G Ninja
```
