Problem with exported matrices in DxcLinker

[cheneym2]

First, compile a dxil library that uses the float4x4 matrix type.

$ cat ./lib.slang
module "repro";

export float4x4 to4x4(float3x4 source)
{
    return float4x4(source[0], source[1], source[2], float4(0.0f, 0.0f, 0.0f, 1.0f));
}

$ ./build/Release/bin/slangc.exe ./lib.slang -profile lib_6_6 -o lib.dxil
<success>

Now compile an "anyhit" shader including that precompiled library as a reference so it gets linked in, tickling the DxcLinker usage.

$ cat ./anyhit.slang
struct Attributes
{
    float2 bary;
};

struct ShadowHitInfo
{
    bool isHit;
    uint seed;
};

[shader("anyhit")]
void shadow(inout ShadowHitInfo payload, Attributes attrib)
{
    IgnoreHit();
}

$ ./build/Release/bin/slangc.exe ./anyhit.slang -stage anyhit -entry shadow -o out2.dxil -r lib.dxil

Setting P3, marking for Q4 for now. Looks like a DXC issue - would probably require us working w/DXC team to fix.

I filed the external bug here microsoft/DirectXShaderCompiler#6889 in the DirectXShaderCompiler github project.

Won't support this beyond basic HLSL prototype. Closing.
