This PR changes the LLVM linkage type for functions with HUGR
Visibility::PrivatefromLinkage::PrivatetoLinkage::Internal. The only difference between the two types is thatInternalfunctions show up in the local symbol table of the resulting binary, whilePrivatefunctions do not.This change makes it easier to debug and profile compiled HUGR programs, by enabling the inclusion of HUGR functions in call stacks generated by a debugger or profiler. I see several other linkage-related PRs around but none of them seem focused on this exact issue - let me know if this is incorrect.
