[patch] Fix unused static symbols so they're not dropped by clang

Several tests used file-static functions and variables that were not
referenced by the code. Even at -O0, clang omits these entities at the
frontend so the tests fail.
Since it doesn't look like these tests needed this functionality for
what they were testing, I've modified the variables/functions to
either be non-static, or marked them with __attribute__((used)).
If it's preferred that I use the attribute more pervasively, rather
than just making the entities non-static, I can provide a patch for
that (or some other preferred solution). There's certainly precedent
for both (non-static entities and __attribute__((used)) in the
testsuite already and much more of the former than the latter).
I have commit-after-review access, so just looking for sign-off here.
Thanks,
- David

Ensure unreferenced static symbols aren't omitted by clang (either marking them __attribute__((used)) or making them non-static)
