[win][aarch64] Fix linking statics on Arm64EC, take 2

Arm64EC builds recently started to fail due to the linker not finding a symbol:
```
symbols.o : error LNK2001: unresolved external symbol #_ZN3std9panicking11EMPTY_PANIC17hc8d2b903527827f1E (EC Symbol)
          C:\Code\hello-world\target\arm64ec-pc-windows-msvc\debug\deps\hello_world.exe : fatal error LNK1120: 1 unresolved externals
```

It turns out that `EMPTY_PANIC` is a new static variable that was being exported then imported from the standard library, but when exporting LLVM didn't prepend the name with `#` (as only functions are prefixed with this character), whereas Rust was prefixing with `#` when attempting to import it.

The fix is to have Rust not prefix statics with `#` when importing.

Adding tests discovered another issue: we need to correctly mark static exported from dylibs with `DATA`, otherwise MSVC's linker assumes they are functions and complains that there is no exit thunk for them.

Fixes rust-lang/rust#138541

Resurrects rust-lang/rust#140176 now that rust-lang/rust#141061 is merged, which removes the incompatibility with `__rust_no_alloc_shim_is_unstable`.
