This patch changes lld to go through all sections while calculating the size
for SizeOfCode, SizeOfInitializedData and SizeOfUninitializedData fields in the
PE header, instead of using only a small set of hard-coded sections.
This only really changes SizeOfInitializedData which didn't include .reloc
section before this patch.

This patch sets the IMAGE_SCN_MEM_DISCARDABLE characteristic to the base
relocations section in order to match MS PECOFF specification.

There was a bug that if a section has an alignment requirement and there are
multiple symbols at offset 0 in the section, only the last atom at offset 0
would be aligned properly. That bug would move only the last symbol to an
alignment boundary, leaving other symbols unaligned, although they should be at
the same location. That caused a mysterious SEGV error of the resultant
executable.
With this patch, we manage all symbols at the same location properly, rather
than keeping the last one.

We need to order atoms that exist in the same chain. This is to make sure that
the command line order is preserved when we emit the atoms to the output file.
Credits: BigCheese for finding the bug.
Adds a test which otherwise would fail.

The compiler is allowed to add a linker option starting with -?<name> to
.drectve section. If the linker can interpret -<name>, it's processed as if
there's no question mark there. If not, such option is silently ignored.
This is a COFF's feature to allow the compiler to emit new linker options
while keeping compatibility with older linkers.

This adds an API to the LinkingContext for flavors to add Internal files
containing atoms that need to appear in the YAML output as well, when -emit-yaml
switch is used.
Flavors can add more internal files for other options that are needed.

We added layout edges to the head atoms in grouped sections. That was wrong,
because the head atom needs to be followed by the other atoms in the *same*
section, not by the other section contents. With this patch, layout edges are
added from tail atom, which is the last atom in a section, to head atom.
llvm-svn: 189573
Because of a bug, the last atom of each section contained a garbage at the
end of its data. In most cases the garbage is harmless but it could have cause
SEGV.

With this patch the entry symbol is treated as an undefined symbol, to force
the resolver to resolve the entry symbol.

The import name is not always the same as the symbol name. If the name/type
field in the import header is NOPREFIX or UNDECORATE, we need to strip some
characters from symbol to get its import name.
The Microsoft PE/COFF spec is vague if symbol contains more than two
consecutive characters to be stripped. We used to strip all characters,
but it doesn't seem right as we couldn't link against the system library
because of this name mangling. Looks like we shouldn't strip more than one
character.

__ImageBase is a symbol having 4 byte integer equal to the image base address
of the resultant executable. The linker is expected to create the symbol as if
it were read from a file.
In order to emit the symbol contents only when the symbol is actually
referenced, we created a pseudo library file to wrap the linker generated
symbol. The library file member is emitted to the output only when the member
is actually referenced, which is suitable for our purpose.

The COMDAT section is a section with a special attribute to tell the linker
whether the symbols in the section are allowed to be merged or not. This patch
add a function to interpret the COMDAT data and set "merge" attribute to the
atoms accordingly.
LLD supports multiple policies to merge atoms; atoms can be merged by name or
by content. COFF supports them, and in addition to that, it supports
choose-the-largest-atom policy, which LLD currently does not support. I simply
mapped it to merge-by-name attribute for now, but we eventually have to support
that policy in the core linker.

Summary:
The .drectve section contains linker command line options, and the linker is
expected to interpret them as if they were given via the command line. In this
patch, the command line parser in the driver is called from the object file
reader to parse the string.
I think this patch is important, because this is the first step towards mutable
TargetInfo. We had a discussion about that on llvm-commits mailing list before.
I haven't removed "const" from the function signature yet. Instead, I just use
cast to remove "const". This is a temporary aid for an experiment. If we don't
see any issue with this mutable TargetInfo appraoch, I'll change the function
signature, and rename the class LinkerContext from TargetInfo.

This patch removes hacky mangle() function, which strips all decorations
uncondtitionally. LLD now interprets Import Name/Type field in the import
library properly as described in the Microsoft PE/COFF Spec.

Some sections, such as with IMAGE_SCN_LNK_REMOVE attribute, is skipped
in the first pass. Such sections need to be skipped in the latter passes.

The /include command line option is equivalent to Unix --undefined
option, which forces the linker to resolve the given symbol name
as if it's an unresolved symbol in one of its input files. This feature
is used to link an additional object file or a shared library that no
input files refer to.

Emit .reloc section. This is the first step to support DLL creation. The
executable doesn't need .reloc section, but the DLL does.

This patch adds a new pass, IdataPass, to transform shared atom references
to real references and to construct the .idata section data. With this patch
lld can produce a working Hello World program by linking it against
kernel32.dll and user32.dll.
