LLVM's build system contains support for configuring a distribution, but
it can often be useful to be able to configure multiple distributions
(e.g. if you want separate distributions for the tools and the
libraries). Add this support to the build system, along with
documentation and usage examples.

If a client code wants to consume clang libraries, it needs to know
CLANG_LINK_CLANG_DYLIB value in order to decide whether to use the DYLIB or
individual components.

By creating this target other projects that depend on clang-generated headers (like LLDB) will no longer be order-dependent on Clang being processed by CMake first.
Also, by creating a dummy of this target in ClangConfig.cmake, projects that can build against out-of-tree clang can freely depend on the target without needing to have conditionals for if clang is in-tree or out-of-tree.

Include a path hint for find_package() in ClangConfig.cmake to ensure
that CMake prefers LLVM installed alongside clang over the default
search path.
If two versions of LLVM are installed in the system, and one of them is
in PATH, CMake's find_package() magic prefers the CMake directory
alongside that install by default. Adding a relative hint makes it
possible to prioritize to the install from which find_package() is
called.
If you want to build e.g. LLDB against another install of LLVM, you can
pass LLVM_CONFIG override. In this case, LLDB queries the prefix from
llvm-config and uses the CMake files located there. However, when
including ClangConfig, the implicit find_package() nevertheless prefers
PATH-found LLVM over the one used previously by LLDB, and two versions
of LLVMConfig end up being loaded.
This could be fixed on LLDB end up by explicitly forcing custom package
search location. However, it seems simpler and safer to add a hint to
ClangConfig than to track every usage of ClangConfig.
