This adds the `ShType` key similar to others `Sh*` keys we have.
My use case is the following. Imagine we have a `SHT_SYMTAB_SHNDX`
section and want to hide it from a dumper. The natural way would be to
do something like:
```
- Name: .symtab_shndx
Type: [[TYPE=SHT_SYMTAB_SHNDX]]
Entries: [ 0, 1 ]
```
and then change the TYPE from `SHT_SYMTAB_SHNDX` to something else,
for example to `SHT_PROGBITS`.
But we have a problem: regular sections does not have `Entries` key,
so yaml2obj will be unable to produce a section.
The solution is to introduce a `ShType` key to override the final type.
This is not the first time I am facing the need to change the type. I
was able to invent workarounds or solved issues differently in the past,
but finally came to conclusion that we just should support the `ShType`.

Currently, when dumping section headers, llvm-readelf
prints "RELR" for SHT_ANDROID_RELR/SHT_RELR sections.
The behavior was introduced in D47919 and revealed in D84330.
But "SHT_ANDROID_RELR" has a different value from "SHT_RELR".
Also, "SHT_ANDROID_REL/SHT_ANDROID_RELA" are printed as "ANDROID_REL/ANDROID_RELA",
what makes the handling of the "SHT_ANDROID_RELR" inconsistent.
This patch makes llvm-readelf to print "ANDROID_RELR" instead of "RELR".

PGO profile is usually more precise than sample profile. However, PGO profile
needs to be collected from loadtest and loadtest may not be representative
enough to the production workload. Sample profile collected from production
can be used as a supplement -- for functions cold in loadtest but warm/hot
in production, we can scale up the related function in PGO profile if the
function is warm or hot in sample profile.
The implementation contains changes in compiler side and llvm-profdata side.
Given an instr profile and a sample profile, for a function cold in PGO
profile but warm/hot in sample profile, llvm-profdata will either mark
all the counters in the profile to be -1 or scale up the max count in the
function to be above hot threshold, depending on the zero counter ratio in
the profile. The assumption is if there are too many counters being zero
in the function profile, the profile is more likely to cause harm than good,
then llvm-profdata will mark all the counters to be -1 indicating the
function is hot but the profile is unaccountable. In compiler side, if a
function profile with all -1 counters is seen, the function entry count will
be set to be above hot threshold but its internal profile will be dropped.
In the long run, it may be useful to let compiler support using PGO profile
and sample profile at the same time, but that requires more careful design
and more substantial changes to make two profiles work seamlessly. The patch
here serves as a simple intermediate solution.

New change: check for existence of field `cycles` in perf_branch_entry before enabling this mode.
This should prevent compilation errors when building for older kernel whose headers don't support it.
Summary:
Recursion detection can be non-trivial. Currently, the state-of-the-art for LLVM,
as far as i'm concerned, is D72362 `[clang-tidy] misc-no-recursion: a new check`.
However, it is quite limited:
* It does very basic call-graph based analysis, in the sense it will report even dynamically-unreachable recursion.
* It is inherently limited to a single TU
* It is hard to gauge how problematic each recursion is in practice.
Some of that can be addressed by adding clang analyzer-based check,
then it would at least support multiple TU's.
However, we can approach this problem from another angle - dynamic run-time analysis.
We already have means to capture a run-time callgraph (XRay, duh),
and there are already means to reconstruct it within `llvm-xray` tool.
This proposes to add a `-recursive-calls-only` switch to the `account` tool.
When the switch is on, when re-constructing callgraph for latency reconstruction,
each time we enter/leave some function, we increment/decrement an entry for the function
in a "recursion depth" map. If, when we leave the function, said entry was at `1`,
then that means the function didn't call itself, however if it is at `2` or more,
then that means the function (possibly indirectly) called itself.
If the depth is 1, we don't account the time spent there,
unless within this call stack the function already recursed into itself.
Note that we don't pay for recursion depth tracking when `recursive-calls-only` is not on,
and the perf impact is insignificant (+0.3% regression)
The overhead of the option is actually negative, around -5.26% user time on a medium-sized (3.5G) XRay log.
As a practical example, that 3.5G log is a capture of the entire middle-end opt pipeline
at `-O3` for RawSpeed unity build. There are total of `5500` functions in the log,
however `-recursive-calls-only` says that `269`, or 5%, are recursive.
Having this functionality could be helpful for recursion eradication.

"[llvm-dev] Multiple documents in one test file" for some discussions.
`extract part filename` splits the input file into multiple parts separated by
regex `^(.|//)--- ` and extract the specified part to stdout or the
output file (if specified).
Use case A (organizing input of different formats (e.g. linker
script+assembly) in one file).
```
// RUN: extract lds %s -o %t.lds
// RUN: extract asm %s -o %t.s
// RUN: llvm-mc %t.s -o %t.o
// RUN: ld.lld -T %t.lds %t.o -o %t
This is sometimes better than the %S/Inputs/ approach because the user
can see the auxiliary files immediately and don't have to open another file.
```
Use case B (for utilities which don't have built-in input splitting
feature):
```
// RUN: extract case1 %s | llc | FileCheck %s --check-prefix=CASE1
// RUN: extract case2 %s | llc | FileCheck %s --check-prefix=CASE2
Combing tests prudently can improve readability.
This is sometimes better than having multiple test files.
```
Since this is a new utility, there is no git history concerns for
UpperCase variable names. I use lowerCase variable names like mlir/lld.

The current behavior was introduced by me in D37567 and it is a bit strange. It prints the

This behavior is consistent with GNU though, but it is very inconsistent with what the regular llvm-readelf
code usually does/prints, so I suggest to change the implementation:
1) Instead of printing "Error: ...." to errs() - just report a warning.
2) Try to continue dumping the section.
3) Merge broken-group.test to group.text.

In an object file, a "PC Begin" field in a FDE is usually relocated by a
PC-relative relocation. Use a relocation-aware DWARFDataExtractor overload (with
DWARFContext and a reference to its internal .eh_frame representation) to decode
addresses correctly. In an object file, most sections have addresses of zero. So
the displayed addresses are almost always offsets relative to the start of the
associated text section.
DWARFContext::create handles .eh_frame and .rela.eh_frame by itself, so if there
are more than one .eh_frame (technically possible, but almost always erronerous
in practice), this will only handle the first one. Supporting multiple
.eh_frame is beyond the scope of this patch.
