Issue Description:

When building swiftrt we mark `swift_addNewDSOImage` as DLLImport, however, when building swiftCore, it is special and is not DLLImport. We should build a special version for swiftCore.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate how swiftrt is built, locate where swift addNewDSOImage is declared, and create a separate internal version for swiftCore without DLLImport.
