John Ericson 1e03c37b97 Prepare Compiler-RT for GnuInstallDirs, matching libcxx, document all
This is a second attempt at D101497, which landed as
9a9bc76c0e but had to be reverted in
8cf7ddbdd4.

This issue was that in the case that `COMPILER_RT_INSTALL_PATH` is
empty, expressions like "${COMPILER_RT_INSTALL_PATH}/bin" evaluated to
"/bin" not "bin" as intended and as was originally.

One solution is to make `COMPILER_RT_INSTALL_PATH` always non-empty,
defaulting it to `CMAKE_INSTALL_PREFIX`. D99636 adopted that approach.
But, I think it is more ergonomic to allow those project-specific paths
to be relative the global ones. Also, making install paths absolute by
default inhibits the proper behavior of functions like
`GNUInstallDirs_get_absolute_install_dir` which make relative install
paths absolute in a more complicated way.

Given all this, I will define a function like the one asked for in
https://gitlab.kitware.com/cmake/cmake/-/issues/19568 (and needed for a
similar use-case).

Original message:

Instead of using `COMPILER_RT_INSTALL_PATH` through the CMake for
complier-rt, just use it to define variables for the subdirs which
themselves are used.

This preserves compatibility, but later on we might consider getting rid
of `COMPILER_RT_INSTALL_PATH` and just changing the defaults for the
subdir variables directly.

---

There was a seaming bug where the (non-Apple) per-target libdir was
`${target}` not `lib/${target}`. I suspect that has to do with the docs
on `COMPILER_RT_INSTALL_PATH` saying was the library dir when that's no
longer true, so I just went ahead and fixed it, allowing me to define
fewer and more sensible variables.

That last part should be the only behavior changes; everything else
should be a pure refactoring.

---

I added some documentation of these variables too. In particular, I
wanted to highlight the gotcha where `-DSomeCachePath=...` without the
`:PATH` will lead CMake to make the path absolute. See [1] for
discussion of the problem, and [2] for the brief official documentation
they added as a result.

In 38b2dec37e the problem was somewhat
misidentified and so `:STRING` was used, but `:PATH` is better as it
sets the correct type from the get-go.

---

D99484 is the main thrust of the `GnuInstallDirs` work. Once this lands,
it should be feasible to follow both of these up with a simple patch for
compiler-rt analogous to the one for libcxx.

James Y Knight 5d71fc5d7b Adjust documentation for git migration.
This fixes most references to the paths:
 llvm.org/svn/
 llvm.org/git/
 llvm.org/viewvc/
 github.com/llvm-mirror/
 github.com/llvm-project/
 reviews.llvm.org/diffusion/

to instead point to https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project.

This is *not* a trivial substitution, because additionally, all the
checkout instructions had to be migrated to instruct users on how to
use the monorepo layout, setting LLVM_ENABLE_PROJECTS instead of
checking out various projects into various subdirectories.

I've attempted to not change any scripts here, only documentation. The
scripts will have to be addressed separately.

Additionally, I've deleted one document which appeared to be outdated
and unneeded:
  lldb/docs/building-with-debug-llvm.txt
