This patch changes the archive handling to enable the semantics needed
for legacy FORTRAN common blocks and block data. When we have a COMMON
definition of a symbol and are including an archive, LLD will now
search the members for global/weak defintions to override the COMMON
symbol. The previous LLD behavior (where a member would only be included
if it satisifed some other needed symbol definition) can be re-enabled with the
option '-no-fortran-common'.

The symbol resolution rules for versioned symbols are:
* foo@@v1 (default version) resolves both undefined foo and foo@v1
* foo@v1 (non-default version) resolves undefined foo@v1
Note, foo@@v1 must be defined (the assembler errors if attempting to
create an undefined foo@@v1).
For defined foo@@v1 in a shared object, we call `SymbolTable::addSymbol` twice,
one for foo and the other for foo@v1. We don't do the same for object files, so
foo@@v1 defined in one object file incorrectly does not resolve a foo@v1
reference in another object file.
This patch fixes the issue by reusing the --wrap code to redirect symbols in
object files. This has to be done after processing input files because
foo and foo@v1 are two separate symbols if we haven't seen foo@@v1.
Add a helper `Symbol::getVersionSuffix` to retrieve the optional trailing
`@...` or `@@...` from the possibly truncated symbol name.

In GNU ld, a -u specified symbol is a STB_DEFAULT undefined.
It cannot be changed to STB_WEAK by a later STB_WEAK undefined in a regular object file.
The behavior is consistent with our model because -u means "we need to fetch a lazy definition".

This patch implements the handling for the R_PPC64_PCREL_OPT relocation as well
as the GOT relocation for the associated R_PPC64_GOT_PCREL34 relocation.
On Power10 targets with PC-Relative addressing, the linker can relax
GOT-relative accesses to PC-Relative under some conditions. Since the sequence
consists of a prefixed load, followed by a non-prefixed access (load or store),
the linker needs to replace the first instruction (as the replacement
instruction will be prefixed). The compiler communicates to the linker that
this optimization is safe by placing the two aforementioned relocations on the
GOT load (of the address).
The linker then does two things:
- Convert the load from the got into a PC-Relative add to compute the address
relative to the PC
- Find the instruction referred to by the second relocation (R_PPC64_PCREL_OPT)
and replace the first with the PC-Relative version of it
It is important to synchronize the mapping from legacy memory instructions to
their PC-Relative form. Hence, this patch adds a file to be included by both
the compiler and the linker so they're always in agreement.

1. Fast investigating/debugging modules of interest without spending time on compiling unrelated modules.
2. Compiler debug dump with -mllvm -debug-only= for specific modules.
It will be useful for large applications which has 1K+ input modules for thinLTO.
The switch can be combined with `--lto-obj-path=` or `--lto-emit-asm` to obtain intermediate object files or assembly files. So far the module name matching is implemented as a fuzzy name lookup where the modules with name containing the switch value are compiled.

* -no-pie or -pie: matched non-local defined symbols will be added to the dynamic symbol table.
* -shared: matched non-local STV_DEFAULT symbols will not be bound to definitions within the shared object
even if they would otherwise be due to -Bsymbolic, -Bsymbolic-functions, or --dynamic-list.

LLD supports both REL and RELA for static relocations, but emits either
of REL and RELA for dynamic relocations. The relocation entry format is
specified by each psABI.
musl ld.so supports both REL and RELA. For such ld.so implementations,
REL (.rel.dyn .rel.plt) has size benefits even if the psABI chooses RELA:
sizeof(Elf64_Rel)=16 < sizeof(Elf64_Rela)=24.
* COPY, GLOB_DAT and J[U]MP_SLOT always have 0 addend. A ld.so
implementation does not need to read the implicit addend.
REL is strictly better.
* A RELATIVE has a non-zero addend. Such relocations can be packed
compactly with the RELR relocation entry format, which is out of scope
of this patch.
* For other dynamic relocation types (e.g. symbolic relocation R_X86_64_64),
a ld.so implementation needs to read the implicit addend. REL may have
minor performance impact, because reading implicit addends forces
random access reads instead of being able to blast out a bunch of
writes while chasing the relocation array.
This patch adds -z rel and -z rela to change the relocation entry format
for dynamic relocations. I have tested that a -z rel produced x86-64
executable works with musl ld.so
-z rela may be useful for debugging purposes on processors whose psABIs
specify REL as the canonical format: addends can be easily read by a tool.

- Move algorithms from llvm::parallel:: to llvm::, since they have

- Use the sequential algorithm directly when 1 thread is requested

- Fix the index type of parallelForEachN to size_t. Nobody in LLVM was

I'm hooking it up with lld. With that switch, lld emits assembly code into the output file (specified by -o) and if there are multiple input files, each of their assembly code will be emitted into a separate file named by suffixing the output file name with a unique number, respectively. The linking then stops after generating those assembly files.

backward reference detected: __isnanl in libc.a(printf_fp.o) refers to libm.a(m_isnanl.o)
// different resolutions: GNU ld/gold select libc.a(raise.o) as the definition
backward reference detected: raise in libc.a(abort.o) refers to libpthread.a(pt-raise.o)
```
To facilitate deployment of --warn-backrefs, add --warn-backrefs-exclude= so that
certain known issues (which may be impractical to fix) can be whitelisted.
Deliberate choices:
* Not a comma-separated list (`--warn-backrefs-exclude=liba.a,libb.a`).
-Wl, splits the argument at commas, so we cannot use commas.
--export-dynamic-symbol is similar.
* Not in the style of `--warn-backrefs='*' --warn-backrefs=-liba.a`.
We just need exclusion, not inclusion. For easier build system
integration, we should avoid order dependency. With the current
