[InstrProfiling] Use external weak reference for bias variable

We need the compiler generated variable to override the weak symbol of
the same name inside the profile runtime, but using LinkOnceODRLinkage
results in weak symbol being emitted which leads to an issue where the
linker might choose either of the weak symbols potentially disabling the
runtime counter relocation.

This change replaces the use of weak definition inside the runtime with
an external weak reference to address the issue. We also place the
compiler generated symbol inside a COMDAT group so dead definition can
be garbage collected by the linker.
