When generating an executable or shared library, mark it to tell the dynamic linker to resolve all symbols when the program is started, or when the shared library is linked to using dlopen, instead of deferring function call resolution to the point when the function is first called.

Parse and apply emulation given with -m option.
Check input files to match ELF type and machine architecture provided with -m.

The entries are added if there are "_init" or "_fini" entries in
the symbol table respectively. According to the behavior of ld,
entries are inserted even for undefined symbols.
Symbol names can be overridden by using -init and -fini command
line switches. If used, these switches neither add new symbol table
entries nor require those symbols to be resolved.

Add symbol specified with -u as undefined which may cause additional
object files from archives to be linked into the resulting binary.

Summary:
If --whole-archive is used, all symbols from the following archives are added to the output. --no-whole-archive restores default behavior. These switches can be used multiple times.
NB. We have to keep an ArchiveFile instance within SymbolTable even if --whole-archive mode is active since it can be a thin archive which contains just names of external files. In that case actual memory buffers for the archive members will be stored within the File member of ArchiveFile class.

Summary:
These switches affect library searching for '-l' which follow them. Synonym forms are also supported:
* -dy and -call_shared for -Bdynamic switch
* -dn, -non_shared and -static for -Bstatic switch

Opening a file and dispatching to readLinkerScript() or createFile()
is a common operation. We want to use that at least from Driver and
from LinkerScript. In COFF, we had the same problem. This patch
resolves the problem in the same way as we did for COFF.
Now, if you have a path that you want to open, just call
Driver->addFile(StringRef). That function opens the file and handles
that as if that were given by command line. This function is the
only place we call identify_magic().

This linker script parser and evaluator is powerful enough to read
Linux's libc.so, which is (despite its name) a linker script that
contains OUTPUT_FORMAT, GROUP and AS_NEEDED directives.
The parser implemented in this patch is a recursive-descendent one.
It does *not* construct an AST but consumes directives in place and
sets the results to Symtab object, like what Driver is doing.
This should be very fast since less objects are allocated, and
this is also more readable.

Symbol table is now populated correctly, but some fields are missing,
they'll be added in the future. This patch also adds --discard-all
flag, which was the default behavior until now.

They are not fully functional yet, but this implements enough support for lld
itself to read them.
With that, delete the .so binary we were using for tests and start eating our
own dog food.

There were at least two issues with having them together:
* For compatibility checks, we only want to look at the ELF kind.
* Adding support for shared libraries should introduce one InputFile kind,
not 4.

A global variable "Driver" is to re-entry to the driver to parse a
.drectve section. Because the need is COFF-specific, we don't need
this variable for ELF.

Various parameters are passed implicitly using Config global variable
already. Output file path is no different from others, so there was no
special reason to handle that differnetly.
This patch changes the signature of writeResult(SymbolTable *, StringRef)
to writeResult(SymbolTable *).

We are using Writer more like a function instead of a class.
This patch makes it a function to simplify the interface.
All details of Writer class is now hidden from other parts of the linker.

This is a direct port of the new PE/COFF linker to ELF.
It can take a single object file and generate a valid executable that executes at the first byte in the text section.
