Improve ABSL_ATTRIBUTE_PACKED documentation

Recommend to apply ABSL_ATTRIBUTE_PACKED to structure members instead of to an entire structure because applying this attribute to an entire structure may cause the compiler to generate suboptimal code. It reduces the alignment of the data structure from a value larger than one to one. When applied to a structure, ABSL_ATTRIBUTE_PACKED reduces the alignment of a structure (alignof()) to 1. As a result, the compiler can no longer assume that e.g. uint32 members are aligned on a four byte boundary and hence is forced to use single-byte load and store instructions on CPU architectures that do not support non-aligned loads or stores.

Separate the initialization of NumCPUs() and NominalCPUFrequency()

The OSS version of Abseil never needs to call NominalCPUFrequency().
In some configurations, initializing NominalCPUFrequency() requires
spending at least 3ms measuring the CPU frequency. By separating the
initialization from NumCPUs(), which is called in most configurations,
we can save at least 3ms of program startup time.

Enable building Abseil as a DLL.
This is currently experimental and unsupported.

This CL does a few things:
1. Adds the ABSL_DLL macro to any class holding a static data member, or to global constants in headers.
2. Adds a whitelist of all files in the DLL and all the build targets that are conglomerated into the DLL.
3. When BUILD_SHARED_LIBS is specified, any build target that would be in the DLL still exists, but we swap out all of it's dependencies so it just depends on abseil_dll

Move absl/strings/internal/escaping.{cc,h} into internal build targets.

This puts absl/strings/internal/escaping.h behind a whitelist and it also resolves https://github.com/abseil/abseil-cpp/issues/604.

 // ABSL_ATTRIBUTE_PACKED
 //
-// Prevents the compiler from padding a structure to natural alignment
+// Instructs the compiler not to use natural alignment for a tagged data
+// structure, but instead to reduce its alignment to 1. This attribute can
+// either be applied to members of a structure or to a structure in its
+// entirety. Applying this attribute (judiciously) to a structure in its
+// entirety to optimize the memory footprint of very commonly-used structs is
+// fine. Do not apply this attribute to a structure in its entirety if the
+// purpose is to control the offsets of the members in the structure. Instead,
+// apply this attribute only to structure members that need it.
+//
+// When applying ABSL_ATTRIBUTE_PACKED only to specific structure members the
+// natural alignment of structure members not annotated is preserved. Aligned
+// member accesses are faster than non-aligned member accesses even if the
+// targeted microprosessor supports non-aligned accesses.
