SERVER-32645 Create a shim helper framework.

The `MONGO_DECLARE_SHIM`, `MONGO_DEFINE_SHIM`, and `MONGO_REGISTER_SHIM`
macros can be used to create specialized types which are customization
and auto-registration points for late-binding functions.  In some
sense they work like weak-symbols; however, they also are useful for
tracking dependencies upon shimmed-out implementations.

+ * actual implementation.  One uses it like this:
+ *
+ * In a header:
+ * ```
+ * class MyClass {
+ *   public:
+ *     static MONGO_DECLARE_SHIM((int)->std::string) helloWorldFunction;
+ * };
+ * ```
+ *
+ * In the corresponding C++ file (which is a link dependency):
+ * ```
+ * MONGO_DEFINE_SHIM(MyClass::helloWorldFunction);
+ * ```
+ *
+ * And in any number of implementation files:
+ * ```
+ * MONGO_REGISTER_SHIM(MyClass::helloWorldFunction)(int value)->std::string {
+ *     if (value == 42) {
+ *         return "Hello World";
+ *     } else {
+ *         return "No way!";
+ *     }
+ * }
+ * ```
+ *
