Before this patch, it wasn't possible to extend the ThinLTO threads to all SMT/CMT threads in the system. Only one thread per core was allowed, instructed by usage of llvm::heavyweight_hardware_concurrency() in the ThinLTO code. Any number passed to the LLD flag /opt:lldltojobs=..., or any other ThinLTO-specific flag, was previously interpreted in the context of llvm::heavyweight_hardware_concurrency(), which means SMT disabled.
One can now say in LLD:
/opt:lldltojobs=0 -- Use one std::thread / hardware core in the system (no SMT). Default value if flag not specified.
/opt:lldltojobs=N -- Limit usage to N threads, regardless of usage of heavyweight_hardware_concurrency().
/opt:lldltojobs=all -- Use all hardware threads in the system. Equivalent to /opt:lldltojobs=$(nproc) on Linux and /opt:lldltojobs=%NUMBER_OF_PROCESSORS% on Windows. When an affinity mask is set for the process, threads will be created only for the cores selected by the mask.
When N > number-of-hardware-threads-in-the-system, the threads in the thread pool will be dispatched equally on all CPU sockets (tested only on Windows).
When N <= number-of-hardware-threads-on-a-CPU-socket, the threads will remain on the CPU socket where the process started (only on Windows).

When the debug info contains a relocation against a dead symbol, wasm-ld

In llvm-objdump, we pass the address of the next MCInst. Ideally we
should just thread the address of the current address, unfortunately we
cannot call X86MCCodeEmitter::encodeInstruction (X86MCCodeEmitter
requires MCInstrInfo and MCContext) to get the length of the MCInst.
MCInstPrinter::printInst has other callers (e.g llvm-mc -filetype=asm, llvm-mca) which set Address to 0.
They leave MCInstPrinter::PrintBranchImmAsAddress as false and this change is a no-op for them.

This essentially drops the change by r288021 (discussed with Georgii Rymar
and Peter Smith and noted down in the release note of lld 10).
GNU ld>=2.31 enables -z separate-code by default for Linux x86. By
default (in the absence of a PHDRS command) a readonly PT_LOAD is
created, which is different from its traditional behavior.
Not emulating GNU ld's traditional behavior is good for us because it
improves code consistency (we create a readonly PT_LOAD in the absence
of a SECTIONS command).
Users can add --no-rosegment to restore the previous behavior (combined
readonly and read-executable sections in a single RX PT_LOAD).

It is about the following case:
```
SECTIONS {
.foo : { *(.foo) } =0x90909090
/DISCARD/ : { *(.bar) }
}
```
Here while parsing the fill expression we treated the
"/" of "/DISCARD/" as operator.
With this change, suggested by Fangrui Song, we do
not allow expressions with operators (e.g. "0x1100 + 0x22")
that are not wrapped into round brackets. It should not
be an issue for users, but helps to resolve parsing ambiguity.

MCTargetOptionsCommandFlags.inc and CommandFlags.inc are headers which contain
cl::opt with static storage.
These headers are meant to be incuded by tools to make it easier to parametrize
codegen/mc.
However, these headers are also included in at least two libraries: lldCommon
and handle-llvm. As a result, when creating DYLIB, clang-cpp holds a reference
to the options, and lldCommon holds another reference. Linking the two in a
single executable, as zig does[0], results in a double registration.
This patch explores an other approach: the .inc files are moved to regular
files, and the registration happens on-demand through static declaration of
options in the constructor of a static object.

When emitting PDBs, the TypeStreamMerger class is used to merge .debug$T records from the input .OBJ files into the output .PDB stream.
Records in .OBJs are not required to be aligned on 4-bytes, and "The Netwide Assembler 2.14" generates non-aligned records.
When compiling with -DLLVM_ENABLE_ASSERTIONS=ON, an assert was triggered in MergingTypeTableBuilder when non-ghash merging was used.
With ghash merging there was no assert.
As a result, LLD could potentially generate a non-aligned TPI stream.
We now align records on 4-bytes when record indices are remapped, in TypeStreamMerger::remapIndices().

Any OUTPUT_FORMAT in a linker script overrides the emulation passed on
the command line, so record the passed bfdname and use that in the error
message about incompatible input files.
This prevents confusing error messages. For example, if you explicitly
pass `-m elf_x86_64` to LLD but accidentally include a linker script
which sets `OUTPUT_FORMAT(elf32-i386)`, LLD would previously complain
about your input files being compatible with elf_x86_64, which isn't the
actual issue, and is confusing because the input files are in fact
x86-64 ELF files.
Interestingly enough, this also prevents a segfault! When we don't pass
`-m` and we have an object file which is incompatible with the
`OUTPUT_FORMAT` set by a linker script, the object file is checked for
compatibility before it's added to the objectFiles vector.
config->emulation, objectFiles, and sharedFiles will all be empty, so
we'll attempt to access bitcodeFiles[0], but bitcodeFiles is also empty,
so we'll segfault. This commit prevents the segfault by adding
OUTPUT_FORMAT as a possible source of machine configuration, and it also
adds an llvm_unreachable to diagnose similar issues in the future.

See `docs/ELF/linker_script.rst` for the new computation for sh_addr and sh_addralign.
`ALIGN(section_align)` now means: "increase alignment to section_align"
(like yet another input section requirement).
The "start of section .foo changes from 0x11 to 0x20" warning no longer
makes sense. Change it to warn if sh_addr%sh_addralign!=0.
To decrease the alignment from the default max_input_align,
use `.output ALIGN(8) : {}` instead of `.output : ALIGN(8) {}`
See linkerscript/section-address-align.test as an example.
When both an output section address and ALIGN are set (can be seen as an
"undefined behavior" https://sourceware.org/ml/binutils/2020-03/msg00115.html),
lld may align more than GNU ld, but it makes a linker script working
with GNU ld hard to break with lld.
This patch can be considered as restoring part of the behavior before D74736.

LLD implements Linker Scripts as they are described in the GNU ld manual.
This description is far from a specification, with the only true reference
the GNU ld implementation, which has undocumented behaviour that can vary
from release to release.
To make it easy for people to switch between linkers we try to follow GNU
ld implementation details wherever possible. We reserve the right to make
our own decisions where the undocumented GNU ld behaviour is not
appropriate for LLD. We don't have a place to document these decisions and
it can be difficult for users to find out this information.

Motivated user case shown in the test has 2 local symbols as they would appear if C++ source has been compiled with -ffunction-sections. The merging of these sections in the case of a partial link (-r) may limit the effectiveness of -gc-sections of a subsequent link.
