This change adds experimental support for SHT_RELR sections, proposed
here: https://groups.google.com/forum/#!topic/generic-abi/bX460iggiKg
Definitions for the new ELF section type and dynamic array tags, as well
as the encoding used in the new section are all under discussion and are
subject to change. Use with caution!

Object FIle Representation
At codegen time this is emitted into the ELF file a pair of symbol indices and a weight. In assembly it looks like:
.cg_profile a, b, 32
.cg_profile freq, a, 11
.cg_profile freq, b, 20
When writing an ELF file these are put into a SHT_LLVM_CALL_GRAPH_PROFILE (0x6fff4c02) section as (uint32_t, uint32_t, uint64_t) tuples as (from symbol index, to symbol index, weight).

Summary:
Original change was D43313 (r326932) and reverted by r326953 because it
broke an LLD test and a windows build. The LLD test was already fixed in
lld commit r326944 (thanks maskray). This is the original change with
the windows build fixed.

This patch enhances DWARFDebugFrame with the capability of parsing and
printing DWARF expressions in CFI instructions. It also makes FDEs and
CIEs accessible to lib users, so they can process them in client tools
that rely on LLVM. To make it self-contained with a test case, it
teaches llvm-readobj to be able to dump EH frames and checks they are
correct in a unit test. The llvm-readobj code is Maksim Panchenko's work
(maksfb).

Introduce an extension to support passing linker options to the linker.
These would be ignored by older linkers, but newer linkers which support
this feature would be able to process the linker.
Emit a special discarded section `.linker-option`. The content of this
section is a pair of strings (key, value). The key is a type identifier for
the parameter. This allows for an argument free parameter that will be
processed by the linker with the value being the parameter. As an example,
`lib` identifies a library to be linked against, traditionally the `-l`
argument for Unix-based linkers with the parameter being the library name.
Thanks to James Henderson, Cary Coutant, Rafael Espinolda, Sean Silva
for the valuable discussion on the design of this feature.

Summary:
This change introduces a `DynamicSymbols` field to the ELF specific YAML
supported by `yaml2obj` and `obj2yaml`. This grouping of symbols provides a way
to represent ELF dynamic symbols. The `DynamicSymbols` structure is identical to
the existing `Symbols`.

Summary:
This change allows yaml input to control the order of implicitly added sections
(`.symtab`, `.strtab`, `.shstrtab`). The order is controlled by adding a
placeholder section of the given name to the Sections field.
This change is to support changes in D39582, where it is desirable to control
the location of the `.dynsym` section.
This reapplied version fixes:
1. use of a function call within an assert
2. failing lld test which has an unnamed section
3. incorrect section count when given an unnamed section
Additionally, one more test to cover the unnamed section failure.

Sometimes program headers have larger alignments than any of the
sections they contain. Currently yaml2obj can't produce such files. A
bug recently appeared in llvm-objcopy that failed in such a case. I'd
like to be able to add tests to llvm-objcopy for such cases.
This change adds an optional alignment parameter to program headers that
will be used instead of calculating the alignment.

This is in preparation for testing lld's upcoming relocation packing
feature (D39152). I have verified that this implementation correctly
unpacks the relocations from a Chromium DSO built with gold and the
Android relocation packer for ARM32 and ARM64.

Right now Symbols must be either undefined or defined in a specific
section. Some symbols have section indexes like SHN_ABS however. This
change adds support for outputting symbols that have such section
indexes.

Some kinds of relocations do not have symbols, like R_X86_64_RELATIVE
for instance. I would like to test this case in D36554 but currently
can't because symbols are required by yaml2obj. The other option is
using the empty symbol but that doesn't seem quite right to me.
This change makes the Symbol field of Relocation optional and in the
case where the user does not specify a symbol name the Symbol index is 0.

This change adds basic support for program headers.
I need to do some testing which requires generating program headers but
I can't use ld.lld or clang to produce programs that have headers. I'd
also like to test some strange things that those programs may never

That may be useful if we want to produce or parse object containing
broken relocation values using yaml2obj/obj2yaml.
Previously that was impossible because only enum values were parsed
correctly, this patch allows to put any numeric value as a
relocation type.

This implements execute-only support for ARM code generation, which
prevents the compiler from generating data accesses to code sections.
The following changes are involved:
* Add the CodeGen option "-arm-execute-only" to the ARM code generator.
* Add the clang flag "-mexecute-only" as well as the GCC-compatible
alias "-mpure-code" to enable this option.
* When enabled, literal pools are replaced with MOVW/MOVT instructions,
with VMOV used in addition for floating-point literals. As the MOVT
instruction is required, execute-only support is only available in
Thumb mode for targets supporting ARMv8-M baseline or Thumb2.
* Jump tables are placed in data sections when in execute-only mode.
* The execute-only text section is assigned section ID 0, and is
marked as unreadable with the SHF_ARM_PURECODE flag with symbol 'y'.
This also overrides selection of ELF sections for globals.

Summary:
Our YAML library's handling of tags isn't perfect, but it is good enough to get rid of the need for the --format argument to yaml2obj. This patch does exactly that.
Instead of requiring --format, it infers the format based on the tags found in the object file. The supported tags are:
!ELF
!COFF
!mach-o
!fat-mach-o
I have a corresponding patch that is quite large that fixes up all the in-tree test cases.
