The main challenge was handling the different on-disk structures (e.g.
`mach_header` vs `mach_header_64`). I tried to strike a balance between
sprinkling `target->wordSize == 8` checks everywhere (branchy = slow, and ugly)
and templatizing everything (causes code bloat, also ugly). I think I struck a
decent balance by judicious use of type erasure.
Note that LLD-ELF has a similar architecture, though it seems to use more templating.
Linking chromium_framework takes about the same time before and after this
change:
N Min Max Median Avg Stddev
x 20 4.52 4.67 4.595 4.5945 0.044423204
+ 20 4.5 4.71 4.575 4.582 0.056344803
No difference proven at 95.0% confidence

lld policy discourages `auto`. Replace it with a type name whenever reasonable. Retain `auto` to avoid ...
* redundancy, as for decls such as `auto *t = mumble_cast<TYPE *>` or similar that specifies the result type on the RHS
* verbosity, as for iterators
* gratuitous suffering, as for lambdas
Along the way, add `const` when appropriate.
Note: a future diff will ...
* add more `const` qualifiers
* remove `opt::` when we are already `using llvm::opt`

Previously, we were loading re-exports without checking whether
they were compatible with our target. Prior to {D97209}, it meant that
we were defining dylib symbols that were invalid -- usually a silent
failure unless our binary actually used them. D97209 exposed this as an
explicit error.
Along the way, I've extended our TAPI compatibility check to cover the
platform as well, instead of just checking the arch. To this end, I've
replaced MachO::Architecture with MachO::Target in our Config struct.

When parsing bitcode, convert LTO Symbols to LLD Symbols in order to perform
resolution. The "winning" symbol will then be marked as Prevailing at LTO
compilation time. This is similar to what the other LLD ports do.
This change allows us to handle `linkonce` symbols correctly, and to deal with
duplicate bitcode symbols gracefully. Previously, both scenarios would result in
an assertion failure inside the LTO code, complaining that multiple Prevailing
definitions are not allowed.
While at it, I also added basic logic around visibility. We don't do anything
useful with it yet, but we do check that its value is valid. LLD-ELF appears to
use it only to set FinalDefinitionInLinkageUnit for LTO, which I think is just a
performance optimization.
From my local experimentation, the linker itself doesn't seem to do anything
differently when encountering linkonce / linkonce_odr / weak / weak_odr. So I've
only written a test for one of them. LLD-ELF has more, but they seem to mostly
be testing the intermediate bitcode output of their LTO backend...? I'm far from
an expert here though, so I might very well be missing things.

Run the ObjCARCContractPass during LTO. The legacy LTO backend (under
LTO/ThinLTOCodeGenerator.cpp) already does this; this diff just adds that
behavior to the new LTO backend. Without that pass, the objc.clang.arc.use
intrinsic will get passed to the instruction selector, which doesn't know how to
handle it.
In order to test both the new and old pass managers, I've also added support for
the `--[no-]lto-legacy-pass-manager` flags.
P.S. Not sure if the ordering of the pass within the pipeline matters...

`-mcpu` and `-code-model` tests were copied from similar ones in
LLD-ELF.
There doesn't seem to be an equivalent test for `-mattr` in LLD-ELF, so
I've verified our behavior by cribbing a test from
CodeGen/X86/recip-fastmath.ll.

This makes it possible for STABS entries to reference the debug info
contained in the LTO-compiled output.
I'm not sure how to test the file mtime within llvm-lit -- GNU and BSD
`stat` take different command-line arguments. I've omitted the check for
now.

Move archiveName up to InputFile so we can consistently use toString()
to print InputFiles in diags, and pass it to the ObjFile ctor. This
matches the ELF and COFF ports.

We should also set the modtime when running LTO. That will be done in a

Just enough to consume some bitcode files and link them. There's more
to be done around the symbol resolution API and the LTO config, but I don't yet
understand what all the various LTO settings do...
