When a library "host"'s reexports change their installName with
`$ld$os10.11$install_name$host`, we used to write a load command for "host" but
write the version numbers of the reexport instead of "host". This fixes that.
I first thought that the rule is to take the version numbers from the library
that originally had that install name (implemented in D103819), but that's not
what ld64 seems to be doing: It takes the version number from the first dylib
with that install name it loads, and it loads the reexporting library before
the reexports. We already did most of that, we just added reexports before the
reexporter. After this change, we add the reexporter before the reexports.
Addresses https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=49800#c11 part 1.
(ld64 seems to add reexports after processing _all_ files on the command line,
while we add them right after the reexporter. For the common case of reexport +
$ld$ symbol changing back to the exporter name, this doesn't make a difference,
but you can construct a case where it does. I expect this to not make a
difference in practice though.)

D103423 neglected to call `parseReexports()` for nested TBD
documents, leading to symbol resolution failures when trying to look up
a symbol nested more than one level deep in a TBD file. This fixes the
regression and adds a test.
It also appears that `umbrella` wasn't being set properly when calling
`parseLoadCommands` -- it's supposed to resolve to `this` if `nullptr`
is passed. I didn't write a failing test case for this but I've made
`umbrella` a member so the previous behavior should be preserved.

This interacts with many parts of the linker. I tried to add test coverage
for all added `isLive()` checks, so that some test will fail if any of them
is removed. I checked that the test expectations for the most part match
ld64's behavior (except for live-support-iterations.s, see the comment
in the test). Interacts with:
- debug info
- export tries
- import opcodes
- flags like -exported_symbol(s_list)
- -U / dynamic_lookup
- mod_init_funcs, mod_term_funcs
- weak symbol handling
- unwind info
- stubs
- map files
- -sectcreate
- undefined, dylib, common, defined (both absolute and normal) symbols
It's possible it interacts with more features I didn't think of,
of course.
I also did some manual testing:
- check-llvm check-clang check-lld work with lld with this patch
as host linker and -dead_strip enabled
- Chromium still starts
- Chromium's base_unittests still pass, including unwind tests
Implemenation-wise, this is InputSection-based, so it'll work for
object files with .subsections_via_symbols (which includes all
object files generated by clang). I first based this on the COFF
implementation, but later realized that things are more similar to ELF.
I think it'd be good to refactor MarkLive.cpp to look more like the ELF
part at some point, but I'd like to get a working state checked in first.
Mechanical parts:
- Rename canOmitFromOutput to wasCoalesced (no behavior change)

- Add noDeadStrip to Defined, corresponding to N_NO_DEAD_STRIP

This omits load commands for unreferenced dylibs if:
- the dylib was loaded implicitly,
- it is marked MH_DEAD_STRIPPABLE_DYLIB
- or -dead_strip_dylibs is passed
This matches ld64.
Currently, the "is dylib referenced" state is computed before dead code
stripping and is not updated after dead code stripping. This too matches ld64.
We should do better here.
With this, clang-format linked with lld (like with ld64) no longer has
libobjc.A.dylib in `otool -L` output. (It was implicitly loaded as a reexport
of CoreFoundation.framework, but it's not needed.)

loadDylib() keeps a name->DylibFile cache, but it only writes
to the cache once the DylibFile constructor has completed.
So dylib loads done recursively from the DylibFile constructor
wouldn't use the cache.
Now, we load additional dylibs after writing to the cache,
which means the cache now gets used for dylibs loaded because
they're referenced from other dylibs.
Related to PR49514 and PR50101, but no dramatic behavior change in itself.
(Technically we no longer crash when a tbd file reexports itself,
but that doesn't happen in practice. We now accept it silently instead
of crashing; ld64 has a diag for the reexport cycle.)

Implementation-wise, when merging two weak symbols, this sets a
"canOmitFromOutput" on the InputSection belonging to the weak symbol not put in
the symbol table. We then don't write InputSections that have this set, as long
as they are not referenced from other symbols. (This happens e.g. for object
files that don't set .subsections_via_symbols or that use .alt_entry.)
Some restrictions:
- not yet done for bitcode inputs
- no "comdat" handling (`kindNoneGroupSubordinate*` in ld64) --
Frame Descriptor Entries (FDEs), Language Specific Data Areas (LSDAs)
(that is, catch block unwind information) and Personality Routines
associated with weak functions still not stripped. This is wasteful,
but harmless.
- However, this does strip weaks from __unwind_info (which is needed for
correctness and not just for size)
- This nopes out on InputSections that are referenced form more than
one symbol (eg from .alt_entry) for now
Things that work based on symbols Just Work:
- map files (change in MapFile.cpp is no-op and not needed; I just
found it a bit more explicit)
- exports
Things that work with inputSections need to explicitly check if
an inputSection is written (e.g. unwind info).
This patch is useful in itself, but it's also likely also a useful foundation
for dead_strip.
I used to have a "canoncialRepresentative" pointer on InputSection instead of
just the bool, which would be handy for ICF too. But I ended up not needing it
for this patch, so I removed that again for now.

It does have an effect on projects that build with -fvisibility-inlines-hidden

without the patch and the other way round at first. In that setup, no
difference is found. That makese sense, since having fewer weak imports will
make the linked output a bit faster too. So not only does this make linking
binaries such as clang a bit faster (since fewer exports need to be written to
the export trie by lld), the linked output binary binary is also a bit faster
(since dyld needs to process fewer dynamic imports).
This also happens to fix the one `check-clang` failure when using lld as host
linker, but mostly for silly reasons: See crbug.com/1183336, mostly comment 26.
The real bug here is that c-index-test links all of LLVM both statically and

Previously, SyntheticSections.cpp did not have a top-level `using namespace

collide with `lld::macho::Symbol`.
`MachO::Symbol` represents the symbols defined in InterfaceFiles (TBDs). By
moving the inclusion of InterfaceFile.h into our .cpp files, we can avoid this
name collision in other files where we are only dealing with LLD's own symbols.
Along the way, I removed all unnecessary "MachO::" prefixes in our code.
Cons of this approach: If TextAPI/MachO/Symbol.h gets included via some other
header file in the future, we could run into this collision again.
Alternative 1: Have either TextAPI/MachO or BinaryFormat/MachO.h use a different
namespace. Most of the benefit of `using namespace llvm::MachO` comes from being
able to use things in BinaryFormat/MachO.h conveniently; if TextAPI was under a
different (and fully-qualified) namespace like `llvm::tapi` that would solve our
problems. Cons: lots of files across llvm-project will need to be updated, and
folks who own the TextAPI code need to agree to the name change.
Alternative 2: Rename our Symbol to something like `LldSymbol`. I think this is
