  AX: Move libAccessibility soft-linking into a shared 
LibAccessibilitySoftLink.{h,mm}
https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=317797
rdar://180565005

Reviewed by Andres Gonzalez and Dominic Mazzoni.

AccessibilityPreferences.mm declared the libAccessibility library soft-link with
SOFT_LINK_LIBRARY_OPTIONAL(), and AuxiliaryProcessCocoa.mm relied on that
declaration to resolve libAccessibilityLibrary() for its own
SOFT_LINK_OPTIONAL(libAccessibility, _AXSUpdateWebAccessibilitySettings, ...).
SOFT_LINK_LIBRARY_OPTIONAL() and SOFT_LINK_OPTIONAL() generate static, 
file-local
symbols, so this only compiled because both files happened to land in the same
unified-sources translation unit. Adding or reordering files in Shared/Cocoa
would eventually break the build.

Move both soft-links into a dedicated LibAccessibilitySoftLink.{h,mm} that uses
the SOFT_LINK_LIBRARY_FOR_HEADER/_FOR_SOURCE and
SOFT_LINK_FUNCTION_MAY_FAIL_FOR_HEADER/_FOR_SOURCE macros, which emit extern,
namespaced symbols defined once and intended for sharing across source files.
