Move all variables at file-scope or function-static-scope into a hosting structure (lld::CommonLinkerContext) that lives at lldMain()-scope. Drivers will inherit from this structure and add their own global state, in the same way as for the existing COFFLinkerContext.

[LLD] Remove global state in lld/COFF
This patch removes globals from the lldCOFF library, by moving globals
into a context class (COFFLinkingContext) and passing it around wherever
it's needed.
See https://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/llvm-dev/2021-June/151184.html for
context about removing globals from LLD.
I also haven't moved the `driver` or `config` variables yet.

When looking for the "all" symbols that are supposed to be exported,
we can't look at the live flag - the symbols we mark as to be
exported will become GC roots even if they aren't yet marked as live.
With this in place, building an LLVM library with BUILD_SHARED_LIBS
produces the same set of symbols exported regardless of whether the
--gc-sections flag is specified, both with and without being built
with -ffunction-sections.

Add a simple forwarding option in the MinGW frontend, and implement
the private -wrap option in the COFF linker.
The feature in lld-link isn't gated by the -lldmingw option, but
the option is left as a private, undocumented option primarily
used by the MinGW driver.
The implementation is significantly based on the support for --wrap
in the ELF linker, but many small nuance details are different
between the ELF and COFF linkers, ending up with more than a few
implementation differences.
This fixes https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=47384.

Instead, use `using namespace lld(::coff)`, and fully qualify the names
of free functions where they are defined in cpp files.
This effectively reverts d79c3be618 to follow the new style guide added
in 236fcbc21a.

Similar to D67323, but for COFF. Many lld/COFF/ files already use
`namespace lld { namespace coff {`. Only a few need changing.

This patch does the same thing as r365595 to other subdirectories,
which completes the naming style change for the entire lld directory.
With this, the naming style conversion is complete for lld.

to reflect the new license.
We understand that people may be surprised that we're moving the header
entirely to discuss the new license. We checked this carefully with the
Foundation's lawyer and we believe this is the correct approach.
Essentially, all code in the project is now made available by the LLVM
project under our new license, so you will see that the license headers
include that license only. Some of our contributors have contributed
code under our old license, and accordingly, we have retained a copy of
our old license notice in the top-level files in each project and
repository.

This involves adding more generic list of symbol suffixes/prefixes
to ignore for autoexport; adding a few other entries to these lists
as well from the corresponding lists in binutils.

When building a shared libc++.dll, it pulls in libc++abi.a statically
with the --wholearchive flag. If such a build is done with
--export-all-symbols, it's reasonable to assume that everything
from that library also should be exported with the same rules as normal
local object files, even though we normally avoid autoexporting things
from libc++abi.a in other cases when linking a DLL (user code).

GNU ld has got an exception for such symbols, and mingw-w64
occasionally uses that exception to avoid exporting symbols in cases
where they otherwise aren't caught by the other exclusion mechanisms.

Summary:
The COFF linker and the ELF linker have long had similar but separate
Error.h and Error.cpp files to implement error handling. This change
introduces new error handling code in Common/ErrorHandler.h, changes the
COFF and ELF linkers to use it, and removes the old, separate
implementations.
