The main observation is that we never need both the filesize and the map size.
When mapping a slice of a file, it doesn't make sense to request a null
terminator and that would be the only case where the filesize would be used.
There are other cleanups that should be done in this area:
* A client should not have to pass the size (even an explicit -1) to say if
it wants a null terminator or not, so we should probably swap the argument
order.
* The default should be to not require a null terminator. Very few clients
require this, but many end up asking for it just because it is the default.

The symbol table has forward references in the file. Instead of allocating
a temporary buffer or counting the size and then writing, this implementation
writes a dummy value first and patches it once the final value is known.
There is room for performance improvement. I will implement them as soon as I
get some other features (like a ranlib mode) in.

This matches gnu archive behavior and since archive member order can change
which member is used, not changing the order on replacement looks like the
right thing to do.
This patch also refactors the logic for which archive member to keep and
whether to move it to a helper function (computeInsertAction). The
nesting in computeNewArchiveMembers was getting a bit confusing.

This is a micro optimization. Instead of going char*->StringRef->Twine->char*,
go char*->Twine->char* and avoid having to copy the filename on the stack.

This fixes two bugs is lib/Object that the use in llvm-ar found:
* In OS X created archives, the name can be padded with nulls. Strip them.
* In the constructor, remember the first non special member and use that in
begin_children. This makes sure we skip all special members, not just the
first one.
The change to llvm-ar itself consist of
* Using lib/Object for reading archives instead of ArchiveReader.cpp.
* Writing the modified archive directly, instead of creating an in memory
representation.
The old Archive library was way more general than what is needed, as can
be seen by the diffstat of this patch.
Having llvm-ar using lib/Object now opens the way for creating regular symbol
tables for both native objects and bitcode files so that we can use those
archives for LTO.

* All systems we support have some form of long name support.
* The options has different names and semantics in different implementations
('f' on gnu, 'T' on OS X), which makes it unlikely it is normally used on
build systems.
* It was completely untested.

This matches GNU ar behavior. Also remove the now unused getFileStatus method.
Not sure how to add a test, it would have to run ls -l or something like that.
