Fangrui Song 1a6e1ee42a Resolve {GlobalValue,GloalIndirectSymol}::getBaseObject confusion
While both GlobalAlias and GlobalIFunc are GlobalIndirectSymbol, their
`getIndirectSymbol()` usage is quite different (GlobalIFunc's resolver
is an entity different from GlobalIFunc itself).

As discussed on https://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/llvm-dev/2020-September/144904.html
("[IR] Modelling of GlobalIFunc"), the name `getBaseObject` is confusing when
used with GlobalIFunc.

To resolve the confusion:

* Move GloalIndirectSymol::getBaseObject to GlobalAlias:: (GlobalIFunc should use `getResolver` instead)
* Change GlobalValue::getBaseObject not to inspect GlobalIFunc. Note: the function has 7 references.
* Add GlobalIFunc::getResolverFunction to peel off potential ConstantExpr indirection
  (`strlen` in `test/LTO/Resolution/X86/ifunc.ll`)

Note: GlobalIFunc::getResolver (like GlobalAlias::getAliasee which does not peel
off ConstantExpr indirection) is kept to be used by ValueEnumerator.
