Add a pass to strip the bodies of `available_externally` functions so string literals and `TypeInfo`s only referenced by them can be deleted by `-globaldce`.

// This transform stips the bodies of available_externally functions and
// initializers of available_externally globals, turning them into external
// declarations.
// This is useful to allow Global DCE (-globaldce) to clean up references to
// globals only used by available_externally functions and initializers.
