We have a few functions that virtually all command wants to run on
process startup/shutdown. This patch adds InitLLVM class to do that
all at once, so that we don't need to copy-n-paste boilerplate code
to each llvm command's main() function.

We are running lld tests with "--full-shutdown" option because we don't
want to call _exit() in lld if it is running tests. Regular shutdown
is needed for leak sanitizer.
This patch changes the way how we tell lld that it is running tests.
Now "--full-shutdown" is removed, and LLD_IN_TEST environment variable
is used instead.
This patch enables full shutdown on all ports, e.g. ELF, COFF and wasm.
Previously, we enabled it only for ELF.

We currently use target_link_libraries without an explicit scope
specifier (INTERFACE, PRIVATE or PUBLIC) when linking executables.
Dependencies added in this way apply to both the target and its
dependencies, i.e. they become part of the executable's link interface
and are transitive.
Transitive dependencies generally don't make sense for executables,
since you wouldn't normally be linking against an executable. This also
causes issues for generating install export files when using
LLVM_DISTRIBUTION_COMPONENTS. For example, clang has a lot of LLVM
library dependencies, which are currently added as interface
dependencies. If clang is in the distribution components but the LLVM
libraries it depends on aren't (which is a perfectly legitimate use case
if the LLVM libraries are being built static and there are therefore no
run-time dependencies on them), CMake will complain about the LLVM
libraries not being in export set when attempting to generate the
install export file for clang. This is reasonable behavior on CMake's
part, and the right thing is for LLVM's build system to explicitly use
PRIVATE dependencies for executables.
Unfortunately, CMake doesn't allow you to mix and match the keyword and
non-keyword target_link_libraries signatures for a single target; i.e.,
if a single call to target_link_libraries for a particular target uses
one of the INTERFACE, PRIVATE, or PUBLIC keywords, all other calls must
also be updated to use those keywords. This means we must do this change
in a single shot. I also fully expect to have missed some instances; I
tested by enabling all the projects in the monorepo (except dragonegg),
and configuring both with and without shared libraries, on both Darwin
and Linux, but I'm planning to rely on the buildbots for other
configurations (since it should be pretty easy to fix those).
Even after this change, we still have a lot of target_link_libraries
calls that don't specify a scope keyword, mostly for shared libraries.
I'm thinking about addressing those in a follow-up, but that's a
separate change IMO.

Previously, the COFF driver would call exit(0) when called
as a library. Now it takes `ExitEarly` option, and if it
is false, it doesn't exit. So it is now more library-friendly.
Furthermore, link() calls freeArena() before returning, to
clean up resources.
Based on an Andrew Kelley's patch.

When using lld on macOS the current level of detection between ld and
ld64 forces us to rename lld to ld.
For ELF targets we have the ld.lld alias so for MACHO we should have
ld64.lld so we can use lld without replacing the system compiler.
This also solves the additional issue of cross compiling for MACHO
where renaming lld to ld with only target ELF.
The clang driver component changes will be in a follow-up commit.

Summary:
Lld's build had a couple of issues which prevented a successfull
LLVM_LINK_LLVM_DYLIB compilation.
- add_llvm_library vs llvm_add_library: One adds a library to libLLVM.so, other
one doesn't. Lld was using the wrong one, causing symbols to be mupltiply
defined in things linking to libLLVM.
- confusion when to use LINK_LIBS vs LINK_COMPONENTS in llvm_add_library
- not using LLVM_LINK_COMPONENTS for add_lld_tool
With these fixes lld compiles and it's test suite passes both in
LLVM_LINK_LLVM_DYLIB mode and without it.

each component has an install target. This also moves the CMake

As the state of lld gets more complicated, shutting down gets more
expensive.
In a normal lld run we can just call _exit immediately after renaming
the temporary output file. We still want the ability to run a full
shutdown since that is useful for detecting memory leaks.
This patch adds a --full-shutdown flag and changes lit to use it.

Dispatching based on argv[0] seems to be more convenient for users
than dispatching based on -flavor option. Currently, when a user
invoke LLD as "lld", we recommend them pass -flavor option. This
patch changes the message so that we recommend use ld.lld, ld or
lld-link instead.

CoreDriver implements a driver for a hypothetical platform.
It is intended to be used in unittests. However, it is actually
redundant because the features are tested using the real driver
for the real platforms. So we can remove this.

UniversalDriver was used as a dispatcher to each platform-specific driver.
It had its own Options.td file. It was not just too much to parse only a
few options (we only want to parse -core, -flavor or argv[0]),
but also interpreted arguments too early. For example, if you invoke lld as
"lld -flavor gnu ... -help", then you'd get the UniversalDriver's help
message instead of GnuDriver's. This patch eliminates the use of Options
from the dispatcher.

This is a direct port of the new PE/COFF linker to ELF.
It can take a single object file and generate a valid executable that executes at the first byte in the text section.

This situation will only be temporary; I imagine we will eventually want to
have the new linker take the lld-link alias after we remove the old one.
However, I would like to port the CFI test suite in the compiler-rt
repository to Windows using the new COFF linker's LTO support; these tests
currently use gcc-style command lines and invoke the linker via the
compiler driver.
We can select the linker using the -fuse-ld flag, which Clang supports on
Windows, but it takes an executable name, rather than a list of arguments
(so "-fuse-ld=lld -flavor link2" wouldn't work), and it doesn't seem worth
the effort to extend the Clang driver to support arguments.

This is an initial patch for a section-based COFF linker.
The patch has 2300 lines of code including comments and blank lines.
Before diving into details, you want to start from reading README
because it should give you an overview of the design.
All important things are written in the README file, so I write
summary here.
- The linker is already able to self-link on Windows.
- It's significantly faster than the existing implementation.
The existing one takes 5 seconds to link LLD on my machine,
while the new one only takes 1.2 seconds, even though the new
one is not multi-threaded yet. (And a proof-of-concept multi-
threaded version was able to link it in 0.5 seconds.)
- It uses much less memory (250MB vs. 2GB virtual memory space
to self-host).
- IMHO the new code is much simpler and easier to read than
the existing PE/COFF port.

The round-trip passes were introduced in r193300. The intention of
the change was to make sure that LLD is capable of reading end
writing such file formats.
But that turned out to be yet another over-designed stuff that had
been slowing down everyday development.
The passes ran after the core linker and before the writer. If you
had an additional piece of information that needs to be passed from
front-end to the writer, you had to invent a way to save the data to
YAML/Native. These passes forced us to do that even if that data
was not needed to be represented neither in an object file nor in
an executable/DSO. It doesn't make sense. We don't need these passes.

The parsing routines in the linker script to parse strings encoded in various
formats(hexadecimal, octal, decimal, etc), is needed by the GNU driver too. This
library provides helper functions for all flavors and flavors to add helper
functions which other flavors may make use of.
