This is a resubmission of r313270. It broke standalone builds of
compiler-rt because we were not correctly generating the llvm-lit
script in the standalone build directory.
The fixes incorporated here attempt to find llvm/utils/llvm-lit
from the source tree returned by llvm-config. If present, it
will generate llvm-lit into the output directory. Regardless,
the user can specify -DLLVM_EXTERNAL_LIT to point to a specific
lit.py on their file system. This supports the use case of
someone installing lit via a package manager. If it cannot find
a source tree, and -DLLVM_EXTERNAL_LIT is either unspecified or
invalid, then we print a warning that tests will not be able
to run.

This patch is still breaking several multi-stage compiler-rt bots.
I already know what the fix is, but I want to get the bots green
for now and then try re-applying in the morning.

This patch simplifies LLVM's lit infrastructure by enforcing an ordering
that a site config is always run before a source-tree config.
A significant amount of the complexity from lit config files arises from
the fact that inside of a source-tree config file, we don't yet know if
the site config has been run. However it is *always* required to run
a site config first, because it passes various variables down through
CMake that the main config depends on. As a result, every config
file has to do a bunch of magic to try to reverse-engineer the location
of the site config file if they detect (heuristically) that the site
config file has not yet been run.
This patch solves the problem by emitting a mapping from source tree
config file to binary tree site config file in llvm-lit.py. Then, during
discovery when we find a config file, we check to see if we have a
target mapping for it, and if so we use that instead.
This mechanism is generic enough that it does not affect external users
of lit. They will just not have a config mapping defined, and everything
will work as normal.
On the other hand, for us it allows us to make many simplifications:
* We are guaranteed that a site config will be executed first
* Inside of a main config, we no longer have to assume that attributes
might not be present and use getattr everywhere.
* We no longer have to pass parameters such as --param llvm_site_config=<path>
on the command line.
* It is future-proof, meaning you don't have to edit llvm-lit.in to add
support for new projects.
* All of the duplicated logic of trying various fallback mechanisms of
finding a site config from the main config are now gone.
One potentially noteworthy thing that was required to implement this
change is that whereas the ninja check targets previously used the first
method to spawn lit, they now use the second. In particular, you can no
longer run lit.py against the source tree while specifying the various
`foo_site_config=<path>` parameters. Instead, you need to run
llvm-lit.py.

Running lit tests and unit tests of ASan and TSan on macOS has very bad performance when running with a high number of threads. This is caused by xnu (the macOS kernel), which currently doesn't handle mapping and unmapping of sanitizer shadow regions (reserved VM which are several terabytes large) very well. The situation is so bad that increasing the number of threads actually makes the total testing time larger. The macOS buildbots are affected by this. Note that we can't easily limit the number of sanitizer testing threads without affecting the rest of the tests.
This patch adds a special "group" into lit, and limits the number of concurrently running tests in this group. This helps solve the contention problem, while still allowing other tests to run in full, that means running lit with -j8 will still with 8 threads, and parallelism is only limited in sanitizer tests.
