Otherwise, because xray_instr_map is now read-only, the absolute

Follow-up of D78082 (x86-64).
This change avoids dynamic relocations in `xray_instr_map` for ARM/AArch64/powerpc64le.
MIPS64 cannot use 64-bit PC-relative addresses because R_MIPS_PC64 is not defined.
Because MIPS32 shares the same code, for simplicity, we don't use PC-relative addresses for MIPS32 as well.

xray_instr_map contains absolute addresses of sleds, which are relocated
by `R_*_RELATIVE` when linked in -pie or -shared mode.
By making these addresses relative to PC, we can avoid the dynamic
relocations and remove the SHF_WRITE flag from xray_instr_map. We can
thus save VM pages containg xray_instr_map (because they are not
modified).
This patch changes x86-64 and bumps the sled version to 2. Subsequent

This allows specifying BasicBlock clusters like the following example:
!foo
!!0 1 2
!!4
This places basic blocks 0, 1, and 2 in one section in this order, and
places basic block #4 in a single section of its own.
Now that we have scalable vectors, there's a distinction that isn't
getting captured in the original SequentialType: some vectors don't have
a known element count, so counting the number of elements doesn't make
sense.
In some cases, there's a better way to express the commonality using
other methods. If we're dealing with GEPs, there's GEP methods; if we're
dealing with a ConstantDataSequential, we can query its element type
directly.
In the relatively few remaining cases, I just decided to write out
the type checks. We're talking about relatively few places, and I think
the abstraction doesn't really carry its weight. (See thread "[RFC]
Refactor class hierarchy of VectorType in the IR" on llvmdev.)

Summary:
For current architect, we always require setContainingCsect to be
called on every MCSymbol got used in XCOFF context.
This is very hard to achieve because symbols gets created everywhere
and other MCSymbol types(ELF, COFF) do not have similar rules.
It's very easy to miss setting the containing csect, and we would
need to add a lot of XCOFF specialized code around some common code area.
This patch intendeds to do
1. Rely on getFragment().getParent() to get csect from labels.
2. Only use get/setRepresentedCsect (was get/setContainingCsect)
if symbol itself represents a csect.

MC already knows how to emulate the .weak directive (with its ELF
semantics; i.e., an undefined weak symbol resolves to 0, and a defined
weak symbol has lower link precedence than a strong symbol of the same
name) using COFF weak externals. Plumb this through the ASM printer too,
so that definitions marked with __attribute__((weak)) at the language
level (which gets translated to weak linkage at the IR level) have the
corresponding .weak directive emitted. Note that declarations marked
with __attribute__((weak)) at the language level (which translates to
extern_weak at the IR level) already have .weak directives emitted.
Weak*/linkonce* symbols without an associated comdat (in particular, ones
generated with __attribute__((weak)) in C/C++) were earlier emitted as
normal unique globals, as the comdat is required to provide the linkonce
semantics. This change makes sure they are emitted as .weak instead,
allowing other symbols to override them.
Rename the existing coff-weak.ll test to coff-linkonce.ll. I'm not
quite sure what that test covers, since the behavior being tested in it
(the emission of a one_only section) is just a result of passing
-function-sections to llc; the linkonce_odr makes no difference.
Add a new coff-weak.ll which tests the new directive emission.

Spin-off from D75407. As described there, ConstantFoldConstant()
currently returns null for non-ConstantExpr/ConstantVector inputs,
but otherwise always returns non-null, independently of whether
any folding has happened or not.
This is confusing and makes consumer code more complicated.
I would expect either that ConstantFoldConstant() returns only if
it actually folded something, or that it always returns non-null.
I'm going to the latter possibility here, which appears to be more
useful considering existing usage.

Follow-up for D74006.
When the integrated assembler is used, we use SHF_LINK_ORDER. The
linked-to symbol is part of ELFSectionKey, thus we can omit the unique
ID.
In https://reviews.llvm.org/rG8b737688c21a9755cae14cb9343930e0882164ab I
switched the condition gating the creation of the descriptor symbol from
checking the MCAsmInfo if we need to support descriptors, to if the OS
was AIX. Technically the 2 should be interchangeable: if we are
targeting AIX then we need to emit XCOFF object files, and the MCAsmInfo
must return true for needing function descriptors.
This doesn't account for lit test with runsteps that only set the arch.
Eg: test/CodeGen/XCore/section-name.ll
which when run natively on AIX we end up with a target xcore-ibm-aix and
needFunctionDescriptors is false.
This patch reverts to using the MCAsmInfo and adds an assert that the
target OS must be AIX since that is the only target using the descriptor
hook.

Printing floating point number in decimal is inconvenient for humans.
Verbose asm output will print out floating point values in comments, it
helps.
But in lots of cases, users still need additional work to covert the

Hexadecimal form is one of the supported form in LLVM IR, and easier for

"linked-to section" is used by the ELF spec. By analogy, "linked-to

implies a directed edge and makes it clear its relation with "sh_link",

bti c
nop
nop
.section __patchable_function_entries,"awo",@progbits,f,unique,0
.p2align 3

This patch adds a label after the initial BTI and changes the __patchable_function_entries entry to reference the label:
```
.Lfunc_begin0:
bti c
.Lpatch0:
nop
nop
.section __patchable_function_entries,"awo",@progbits,f,unique,0
.p2align 3
.xword .Lpatch0
```
This placement is compatible with the resolution in
https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=92424 .
A local linkage function whose address is not taken does not need a BTI.
Placing the patch label after BTI has the advantage that code does not
need to differentiate whether the function has an initial BTI.

For `MC_GlobalAddress` operands referencing **certain** GlobalObjects,
we can lower them to STB_LOCAL aliases to avoid costs brought by
assembler/linker's conservative decisions about symbol interposition:
* An assembler conservatively assumes a global default visibility symbol interposable (ELF
semantics). So relocations in object files are needed even if the code generator assumed
the definition exact and non-interposable.
* The relocations can cause the creation of PLT entries on some targets for -shared links.
A linker conservatively assumes a global default visibility symbol interposable (if not
otherwise constrained by -Bsymbolic/--dynamic-list/VER_NDX_LOCAL/etc).
"certain" refers to GlobalObjects in the intersection of
`hasExactDefinition() and !isInterposable()`: `external`, `appending`, `internal`, `private`.
Local linkages (`internal` and `private`) cannot be interposed. `appending` is for very
few objects LLVM interpret specially. So the set just includes `external`.
This patch emits STB_LOCAL aliases (.Lfoo$local) for such GlobalObjects, so that targets can lower
MC_GlobalAddress operands to STB_LOCAL aliases if applicable.
We may extend the scope and include GlobalAlias in the future.
LLVM's existing -fno-semantic-interposition behaviors give us license to do such optimizations:
* Various optimizations (ipconstprop, inliner, sccp, sroa, etc) treat normal ExternalLinkage
GlobalObjects as non-interposable.
* Before D72197, MC resolved a PC-relative VK_None fixup to a non-local symbol at assembly time (no
outstanding relocation), if the target is defined in the same section. Put it simply, even if IR
optimizations failed to optimize and allowed interposition for the function call in
`void foo() {} void bar() { foo(); }`, the assembler would disallow it.
This patch sets up AsmPrinter infrastructure to make -fno-semantic-interposition more so.
With and without the patch, the object file output should be identical:
`.Lfoo$local` does not take a symbol table entry.

The Linux kernel uses -fpatchable-function-entry to implement DYNAMIC_FTRACE_WITH_REGS

currently only used by parisc.
This patch adds N,0 support to AArch64 codegen. N is represented as the
function attribute "patchable-function-entry". We will use a different
function attribute for M, if we decide to implement it.
The patch reuses the existing patchable-function pass, and
TargetOpcode::PATCHABLE_FUNCTION_ENTER which is currently used by XRay.
When the integrated assembler is used, __patchable_function_entries will

COMDAT (https://gcc.gnu.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=93195) issues.
Retrospectively, __patchable_function_entries should use a PC-relative
relocation type to avoid the SHF_WRITE flag and dynamic relocations.
