[libc++] Make _LIBCPP_TYPE_VIS export members
Summary:
Most classes annotated with _LIBCPP_TYPE_VIS need to have at least some
of their members exported, otherwise we have a lot of link errors when
linking against a libc++ built with hidden visibility. This also makes
_LIBCPP_TYPE_VIS be consistent across platforms, since on Windows it
already exports members.
With this change made, any template methods of a class marked
_LIBCPP_TYPE_VIS will also get default visibility when instantiatied,
which is not desirable for clients of libc++ headers who wish to control
their visibility; this is the same issue as PR30642. Annotate all
problematic methods with an explicit visibility specifier to avoid this.
The problematic methods were found by running bad-visibility-finder [1]
against the libc++ headers after making the _LIBCPP_TYPE_VIS change. The
small methods were marked for inlining; the larger ones hidden.

A synonym for `_LIBCPP_INLINE_VISIBILITY`
**_LIBCPP_TYPE_VIS**
+ Mark a type's typeinfo, vtable and members as having default visibility.
+ This attribute cannot be used on class templates.
+
+**_LIBCPP_TEMPLATE_VIS**
Mark a type's typeinfo and vtable as having default visibility.
- `_LIBCPP_TYPE_VIS`. This macro has no effect on the visibility of the
- type's member functions. This attribute cannot be used on class templates.
+ This macro has no effect on the visibility of the type's member functions.
**GCC Behavior**: GCC does not support Clang's `type_visibility(...)`
attribute. With GCC the `visibility(...)` attribute is used and member
functions are affected.
-**_LIBCPP_TEMPLATE_VIS**
- The same as `_LIBCPP_TYPE_VIS` except that it may be applied to class
- templates.
-
**Windows Behavior**: DLLs do not support dllimport/export on class templates.
The macro has an empty definition on this platform.
