This is a follow-up for D70378 (Cover usage of LLD as a library).
While debugging an intermittent failure on a bot, I recalled this scenario which
causes the issue:
1.When executing lld/test/ELF/invalid/symtab-sh-info.s L45, we reach
lld:🧝:Obj-File::ObjFile() which goes straight into its base ELFFileBase(),
then ELFFileBase::init().
2.At that point fatal() is thrown in lld/ELF/InputFiles.cpp L381, leaving a
half-initialized ObjFile instance.
3.We then end up in lld::exitLld() and since we are running with LLD_IN_TEST, we
hapily restore the control flow to CrashRecoveryContext::RunSafely() then back
in lld::safeLldMain().
4.Before this patch, we called errorHandler().reset() just after, and this
attempted to reset the associated SpecificAlloc<ObjFile<ELF64LE>>. That tried
to free the half-initialized ObjFile instance, and more precisely its
ObjFile::dwarf member.
Sometimes that worked, sometimes it failed and was catched by the
CrashRecoveryContext. This scenario was the reason we called
errorHandler().reset() through a CrashRecoveryContext.
But in some rare cases, the above repro somehow corrupted the heap, creating a
stack overflow. When the CrashRecoveryContext's filter (that is,
__except (ExceptionFilter(GetExceptionInformation()))) tried to handle the
exception, it crashed again since the stack was exhausted -- and that took the
whole application down. That is the issue seen on the bot. Locally it happens
about 1 times out of 15.
Now this situation can happen anywhere in LLD. Since catching stack overflows is
not a reliable scenario ATM when using CrashRecoveryContext, we're now
preventing further re-entrance when such failures occur, by signaling
lld::SafeReturn::canRunAgain=false. When running with LLD_IN_TEST=2 (or above),
only one iteration will be executed, instead of two.

Previously, lld would crash if the .pdata size was not an even multiple
of the expected .pdata entry size. This makes it error gracefully instead.
(We hit this in Chromium due to an assembler problem: https://crbug.com/1101577)
