Explanation: Objective-C properties have metadata for run-time use, but we were including some information that's only meant for instance properties: the name of the backing storage. Class properties, of course, don't have instance variables backing them, even if they are stored.
Scope: Affects the ObjC metadata for class properties.
Issue: SR-9541 / rdar://problem/46830117
Risk: Very low. There's no format change here, just an omission of information that is incorrect.
Testing: Added compiler regression tests.
