Enable the machine function split optimization for AutoFDO in Clang. Machine function split (MFS) is a pass in the Clang compiler that splits a function into hot and cold parts. The linker groups all cold blocks across functions together. This decreases hot code fragmentation and improves iCache and iTLB utilization. MFS requires a profile so this is enabled only for the AutoFDO builds.
