Author: Emery Conrad (conrade-ctc)

<summary>Changes</summary>
A global on the `llvm.used`/`llvm.compiler.used` list can be deleted before the
module is released: CodeGen erases an unreferenced `GlobalValue` without RAUW
when the same mangled name is redefined with a different type
(`GetOrCreateLLVMGlobal`), which nulls the `WeakTrackingVH` on the used list —
value handles are not uses, so the `use_empty()` guard does not protect them.
In whole-TU compilation this is unobservable because the accompanying
`err_duplicate_mangled_name` suppresses `Release()`. The incremental
interpreter, however, clears the diagnostic state after the failed parse and
keeps building the same module, so the next successful parse runs `Release()`
and crashes in `emitUsed` dereferencing the dead handle:
```
clang-repl> __attribute__((used)) int a asm("sym") = 1; float b asm("sym") =
2.0f;
clang-repl> int ok = 0;
clang-repl: .../ValueHandle.h:95: llvm::Value&
llvm::ValueHandleBase::operator*() const: Assertion `V &&
"Dereferencing deleted ValueHandle"' failed.
```
Out-of-tree incremental clients hit the same crash through other routes that
delete an emitted used global before module release (e.g. CppInterOp's
force-emission of reflection queries, see compiler-research/CppInterOp#<!--
-->1068).
Fix: skip null handles when building the used array. The repro above is
included as a lit test; `clang/test/Interpreter`, `clang/test/CodeGen`, and
`clang/test/CodeGenCXX` pass locally.
