We have llvm-readobj for dumping CodeView from object files, and
llvm-pdbutil has always been more focused on PDB. However,
llvm-pdbutil has a lot of useful options for summarizing debug
information in aggregate and presenting high level statistical
views. Furthermore, it's arguably better as a testing tool since
we don't have to write tests to conform to a state-machine like
structure where you match multiple lines in succession, each
depending on a previous match. llvm-pdbutil dumps much more
concisely, so it's possible to use single-line matches in many
cases where as with readobj tests you have to use multi-line
matches with an implicit state machine.
Because of this, I'm adding object file support to llvm-pdbutil.
In fact, this mirrors the cvdump tool from Microsoft, which also
supports both object files and pdb files. In the future we could
perhaps rename this tool llvm-cvutil.
In the meantime, this allows us to deep dive into object files
the same way we already can with PDB files.

This adds a new command line option, -udt-stats, which breaks
down the stats of S_UDT records. These are one of the biggest
contributors to the size of /DEBUG:FASTLINK PDBs, so they need
some additional tools to be able to analyze their usage. This
option will dig into each S_UDT record and determine what kind
of record it points to, and then break down the statistics by
the target type. The goal here is to identify how our object
files differ from MSVC object files in S_UDT records, so that
we can output fewer of them and reach size parity.

This adds support for dumping a summary of module symbols
and CodeView debug chunks. This option prints a table for
each module of all of the symbols that occurred in the module
and the number of times it occurred and total byte size. Then
at the end it prints the totals for the entire file.
Additionally, this patch adds the -jmc (just my code) option,
which suppresses modules which are from external libraries or
linker imports, so that you can focus only on the object files
and libraries that originate from your own source code.

Image section headers are stored in the DBI stream, but we
had no way to dump them. This patch adds dumping support,
along with some tests that LLD actually dumps them correctly.

The PDB "symbol stream" actually contains symbol records for the publics
and the globals stream. The globals and publics streams are essentially
hash tables that point into a single stream of records. In order to
match cvdump's behavior, we need to only dump symbol records referenced
from the hash table. This patch implements that, and then implements
global stream dumping, since it's just a subset of public stream
dumping.
Now we shouldn't see S_PROCREF or S_GDATA32 records when dumping
publics, and instead we should see those record in the globals stream.

Previously we had the -type-index option which would dump the record of
a single, but we had no way to follow the dependency graph backwards and
also dump all dependent types.
Having this option makes test-writing better, because we can limit the
test to only those records that are of importance for the thing we're
trying to test, which allows us to use things like CHECK-NEXT to reduce
fragility.

Now you run llvm-pdbutil dump <options>. This is a followup
after having renamed the tool, whereas before raw was obviously
just the style of dumping, whereas now "dump" is the action to
perform with the "util".
