The reproducer for this problem is a -O/-Osize version of a testcase we already have, test/embedded/modules-subclasses.swift. What happens is that under -O/-Osize, the module that defines the base class has an unused internal method on the class, that method is proven by DeadFunctionElimination to be unused, and is removed from the base vtable. The client module then defines a subclass, and the subclass vtable references the (removed) base class method.
This PR simply allows DeadFunctionElimination on the client module to remove the entry from the subclass as well.
Fixes #72890.
