This is just enough to get "llvm-ranlib foo.a" working and tested. Making
llvm-ranlib a symbolic link to llvm-ar doesn't work so well with llvm's option
parsing, but ar's option parsing is mostly custom anyway.
This patch also removes the -X32_64 option. Looks like it was just added in
r10297 as part of implementing the current command line parsing. I can add it
back (with a test) if someone really has AIX portability problems without it.

If no other operation is specified, 's' becomes an operation instead of an
modifier. The s operation just creates a symbol table. It is the same as
running ranlib.
We assume the archive was created by a sane ar (like llvm-ar or gnu ar) and
if the symbol table is present, then it is current. We use that to optimize
the most common case: a broken build system that thinks it has to run ranlib.

The symbol table has forward references in the file. Instead of allocating
a temporary buffer or counting the size and then writing, this implementation
writes a dummy value first and patches it once the final value is known.
There is room for performance improvement. I will implement them as soon as I
get some other features (like a ranlib mode) in.
