The linker needs FuncInfo metadata for all inlined functions. This is
typically handled by gc.enqueueFunc calling ir.InitLSym for all function
declarations in typecheck.Target.Decls (ir.UseClosure adds all closures
to Decls).
However, non-trivial closures in Decls are ignored, and are insteaded
enqueued when walk of the calling function discovers them.
This presents a problem for direct calls to closures. Inlining will
replace the entire closure definition with its body, which hides the
closure from walk and thus suppresses symbol creation.
Explicitly create a symbol early in this edge case to ensure we keep
this metadata.
InitLSym needs to move out of ssagen to avoid a circular dependency (it
doesn't have anything to do with ssa anyway). There isn't a great place
for it, so I placed it in ir, which seemed least objectionable.
The added test triggers one of these inlined direct non-trivial closure
calls, though the test needs CL 429637 to fail, which adds a FuncInfo
assertion to the linker. Note that the test must use "run" instead of
"compile" since the assertion is in the linker, and "compiler" doesn't
run the linker.
Fixes#54959.
