MinGW configurations don't use associative comdats, as GNU ld doesn't
support that. Instead they produce normal comdats named .text$sym,
.xdata$sym and .pdata$sym.
GNU ld doesn't discard any comdats starting with .xdata or .pdata,
even if --gc-sections is used (while it does discard other unreferenced
comdats), regardless of what symbol name is used after the $ separator.
For LLD, treat any such comdat as implicitly associative to the base
symbol. This requires maintaining a map from symbol name to section
number, but that is only maintained when the MinGW flag has been
enabled.

Discard them unless they have been associated by other means (yet
uimplemented).
According to MS link.exe, such sections are illegal, but MinGW setups
use them in their take on associative comdats.
This avoids leaving references to the bogus SectionChunk* PendingComdat,
which cannot be dereferenced.
This fixes PR38183.

Future symbol insertions can potentially change the type of these
symbols - keep pointers to the base class to reflect this, and
use dynamic casts to inspect them before using as the subclass
type.
This fixes crashes that were possible before, by touching these
symbols that now are populated as e.g. a DefinedRegular, via
the old pointers with DefinedImportThunk type.

Summary:
When a symbol refers to a special section or a section that doesn't
exist, lld would fatal with "broken object file". This change gives a
different message for each scenario, and includes the name of the
file, name of the symbol, and the section being referred to.

Summary:
This change does three things:
- Try to find the file and line number of an undefined symbol
reference by reading codeview debug info.
- Try to find the name of the function or global variable with the
undefined symbol reference by searching the object file's symbol
table.
- Prints the information in the same style as the ELF linker.

In COFF, duplicate string literals are merged by placing them in a
comdat whose leader symbol name contains a specific prefix followed
by the hash and partial contents of the string literal. This gives
us an easy way to identify sections containing string literals in
the linker: check for leader symbol names with the given prefix.
Any sections that are identified in this way as containing string
literals may be tail merged. We do so using the StringTableBuilder
class, which is also used to tail merge string literals in the ELF
linker. Tail merging is enabled only if ICF is enabled, as this
provides a signal as to whether the user cares about binary size.

Summary:
This protects calls to longjmp from transferring control to arbitrary
program points. Instead, longjmp calls are limited to the set of
registered setjmp return addresses.
This also implements /guard:nolongjmp to allow users to link in object
files that call setjmp that weren't compiled with /guard:cf. In this
case, the linker will approximate the set of address taken functions,
but it will leave longjmp unprotected.
I used the following program to test, compiling it with different -guard
flags:
$ cl -c t.c -guard:cf
$ lld-link t.obj -guard:cf
#include <setjmp.h>
#include <stdio.h>
jmp_buf buf;
void g() {
printf("before longjmp\n");
fflush(stdout);
longjmp(buf, 1);
}
void f() {
if (setjmp(buf)) {
printf("setjmp returned non-zero\n");
return;
}
g();
}
int main() {
f();
printf("hello world\n");
}
In particular, the program aborts when the code is compiled *without*
-guard:cf and linked with -guard:cf. That indicates that longjmps are
protected.

Summary:
This patch adds some initial support for Windows control flow guard. At
the end of the day, the linker needs to synthesize a table of RVAs very
similar to the structured exception handler table (/safeseh).
Both /safeseh and /guard:cf take sections of symbol table indices
(.sxdata and .gfids$y) and turn them into RVA tables referenced by the
load config struct in the CRT through special symbols.

It's pretty annoying to have LLD lowercase paths in error messages when
cross-compiling from a case-sensitive filesystem, since e.g. if I want
to examine the problematic object file, I have to perform some manual
case correction instead of just being able to copy the path from the
error message.

With this change, instead of creating a SectionChunk for each section
in the object file, we only create them when we encounter a prevailing
comdat section.
Also change how symbol resolution occurs between comdat symbols. Now
only the comdat leader participates in comdat resolution, and not any
other external associated symbols. This is more in line with how COFF
semantics are defined, and should allow for a more straightforward
implementation of non-ANY comdat types.
On my machine, this change reduces our runtime linking a release
build of chrome_child.dll with /nopdb from 5.65s to 4.54s (median of
50 runs).

If a symbol is locally defined and is DLL imported in another
translation unit, and the object with the locally defined version is
loaded prior to the imported version, then the linker will fail to
resolve the definition of the thunk and return the locally defined
symbol. This will then be attempted to be cast to an import thunk,
which will clearly fail.
Only return the thunk if the symbol is inserted or a thunk is created.
Otherwise, report a duplication error.
