[libc++] Add visibility annotations to the std namespace with GCC (#133233)
This allows us to remove the need for `_LIBCPP_TEMPLATE_VIS` and fixes a bunch of missing annotations for RTTI when used across dylib boundaries. `_LIBCPP_TEMPLATE_VIS` itself will be removed in a separate patch, since it touches a lot of code. This patch is a no-op for Clang. Only GCC is affected.

ABI Affecting Changes
---------------------
-- TODO
+- When using GCC, the ``std`` namespace is now annotated with ``[[gnu::visibility("default")]]``. This may cause more
+ symbols to be exported from shared libraries when building with ``-fvisibility=hidden``. This also fixes RTTI
+ comparison between shared libraries, since all RTTI has the correct visibility now. There is no behaviour change on
+ Clang.
