Summary:
The arg1 logging handler changed in compiler-rt to start writing a
different type for entries encountered when logging the first argument
of XRay-instrumented functions. This change allows the trace loader to
support reading these record types as well as prepare for when the
basic (naive) mode implementation starts writing down the argument
payloads.
Without this change, binaries with arg1 logging support enabled start
writing unreadable logs for any of the XRay tracing tools.

Summary:
A new FDR metadata record will support logging a function call argument;
appending multiple metadata records will represent a sequence of arguments
meaning that "holes" are not representable by the buffer format. Each
call argument is currently a 64-bit value (useful for "this" pointers and
synchronization objects).
If present, we put this argument to the function call "entry" record it
belongs to, and alter its type to notify the user of its presence.

Summary:
This change adds support for explicit tail-exit records to be written by
the XRay runtime. This lets us differentiate the tail exit
records/events in the log, and allows us to treat those exit events
especially in the future. For now we allow printing those out in YAML
(and reading them in).

Summary:
For readers unfamiliar with the XRay code base, reference the compiler-rt
implementation even though we're not allowed to share any code and explain
our little-endian views more clearly.
For code clarity either get rid of obvious comments or explain their
intentions, fix typos, correct coding style according to LLVM's standards
and manually CSE long expressions to point out it is the same expression.

Summary:
Adding a new restructuredText file to document the trace format produced with
an FDR mode handler and read by llvm-xray toolset.
Fixed two problems in the documentation from differential review. One bad table
and a missing link in the toc.

Summary:
In D30630 we will start writing custom event records. To avoid breaking
the tools that read the FDR mode records, we skip over these records.
To support these custom event records more effectively, we will have to
expose them in the trace loading API. Those changes will be forthcoming.

Summary:
It is problematic for this reader that it expects to read data from
several threads, but the header or message format does not define
framing. Since the buffers are reused, we can't rely on skipping
zeroed out data as a synchronization method either.
There is an argument that this is not version compatible with the format
the reader expected previously. I argue that since the writer wrote garbage
past the end of buffer record, there is no currently working reader to
compromise.
The corresponding writer change is posted to D31384.

Summary:
The file type packs function trace data onto disk from potentially multiple
threads that are aggregated and flushed during the course of an instrumented
program's runtime.
It is named FDR mode or Flight Data recorder as an analogy to plane
blackboxes, which instrument a running system without access to IO.
The writer code is defined in compiler-rt in xray_fdr_logging.h/cc

Summary:
In this change we move the definition of the log reading routines from
the tools directory in LLVM to {include/llvm,lib}/XRay. We improve the
documentation a little bit for the publicly accessible headers, and
adjust the top-matter. This also leads to some refactoring and cleanup
in the tooling code.
In particular, we do the following:
- Rename the class from LogReader to Trace, as it better represents
the logical set of records as opposed to a log.
- Use file type detection instead of asking the user to say what
format the input file is. This allows us to keep the interface
simple and encapsulate the logic of loading the data appropriately.
In future changes we increase the API surface and write dedicated unit
tests for the XRay library.
Depends on D24376.
