Most architectures use .got instead of .got.plt, so switching the default can
minimize customization.
This fixes an issue for SPARC V9 which uses .got .
AVR, AMDGPU, and MSP430 don't seem to use _GLOBAL_OFFSET_TABLE_.
(As I mentioned in https://reviews.llvm.org/D62609#1534158 ,
the condition for using bti c for executable can be loosened.)
In two cases the address of a PLT may escape:
* canonical PLT entry for a STT_FUNC
* non-preemptible STT_GNU_IFUNC which is converted to STT_FUNC
The first case can be detected with `needsPltAddr`.
The second case is not straightforward to detect because for the Relocations.cpp
created `directSym`, it's difficult to know whether the associated `sym` has
exercised the `!needsPlt(expr)` code path. Just use the conservative `isInIplt`
condition. A non-preemptible ifunc not referenced by non-GOT-generating
non-PLT-generating relocations will have an unneeded `bti c`, but the cost is acceptable.
The second case fixes a bug as well: a -shared link may have non-preemptible ifunc.
Before the patch we did not emit `bti c` and could be wrong if the PLT address escaped.
GNU ld doesn't handle the case: `relocation R_AARCH64_ADR_PREL_PG_HI21 against STT_GNU_IFUNC symbol 'ifunc2' isn't handled by elf64_aarch64_final_link_relocate` (https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=28370)
For -shared, if BTI is enabled but PAC is disabled, the PLT entry size increases
from 16 to 24 because we have to select the PLT scheme early, but the cost is
acceptable.

Currenlty PseudoProbeInserter is a pass conditioned on a target switch. It works well with a single clang invocation. It doesn't work so well when the backend is called separately (i.e, through the linker or llc), where user has always to pass -pseudo-probe-for-profiling explictly. I'm making the pass a default pass that requires no command line arg to trigger, but will be actually run depending on whether the CU comes with `llvm.pseudo_probe_desc` metadata.

Similar to D69607 but for archive member extraction unrelated to GC. This patch adds --why-extract=.
Prior art:
GNU ld -M prints
```
Archive member included to satisfy reference by file (symbol)
a.a(a.o) main.o (a)
b.a(b.o) (b())
```
-M is mainly for input section/symbol assignment <-> output section mapping
(often huge output) and the information may appear ad-hoc.

---
--why-extract= gives the user the full data (which is much shorter than GNU ld
-Map). It is easy to track a chain of references to one archive member with a
one-liner, e.g.
```
% ld.lld main.o a_b.a b_c.a c.a -o /dev/null --why-extract=- | tee stdout
reference extracted symbol
main.o a_b.a(a_b.o) a
a_b.a(a_b.o) b_c.a(b_c.o) b()

% ruby -ane 'BEGIN{p={}}; p[$F[1]]=[$F[0],$F[2]] if $.>1; END{x="c.a(c.o)"; while y=p[x]; puts "#{y[0]} extracts #{x} to resolve #{y[1]}"; x=y[0] end}' stdout
b_c.a(b_c.o) extracts c.a(c.o) to resolve c()
a_b.a(a_b.o) extracts b_c.a(b_c.o) to resolve b()
main.o extracts a_b.a(a_b.o) to resolve a
```
Archive member extraction happens before --gc-sections, so this may not be a live path
under --gc-sections, but I think it is a good approximation in practice.

Copy relocation on a non-default version symbol is unsupported and can crash at
runtime. Fortunately there is a one-line fix which works for most cases:
ensure `getSymbolsAt` unconditionally returns `ss`.
If two non-default version symbols are defined at the same place and both
are copy relocated, our implementation will copy relocated them into different
addresses. The pointer inequality is very unlikely an issue. In GNU ld, copy
relocating version aliases seems to create more pointer inequality problems than
us.
(
In glibc, sys_errlist@GLIBC_2.2.5 sys_errlist@GLIBC_2.3 sys_errlist@GLIBC_2.4
are defined at the same place, but it is unlikely they are all copy relocated in
one executable. Even if so, the variables are read-only and pointer inequality
should not be a problem.

Due to an assembler design flaw (IMO), `.symver foo,foo@v1` produces two symbols `foo` and `foo@v1` if `foo` is defined.
* `v1 {};` produces both `foo` and `foo@v1`, but GNU ld only produces `foo@v1`

* `v2 { foo; };` produces both `foo@@v2` and `foo@v1`, matching GNU ld. (Tested by symver.s)
This patch implements the GNU ld behavior by reusing the symbol redirection mechanism
in D92259. The new test symver-non-default.s checks the first two cases.
Without the patch, the second case will produce `foo@v1` and `foo@@v1` which

This option is a subset of -Bsymbolic-functions. It applies to STB_GLOBAL
STT_FUNC definitions.
The address of a vague linkage function (STB_WEAK STT_FUNC, e.g. an inline
function, a template instantiation) seen by a -Bsymbolic-functions linked
shared object may be different from the address seen from outside the shared
object. Such cases are uncommon. (ELF/Mach-O programs may use
`-fvisibility-inlines-hidden` to break such pointer equality. On Windows,
correct dllexport and dllimport are needed to make pointer equality work.
Windows link.exe enables /OPT:ICF by default so different inline functions may
have the same address.)
```
// a.cc -> a.o -> a.so (-Bsymbolic-functions)
inline void f() {}
void *g() { return (void *)&f; }
// b.cc -> b.o -> exe
// The address is different!
inline void f() {}
```
-Bsymbolic-non-weak-functions is a safer (C++ conforming) subset of
-Bsymbolic-functions, which can make such programs work.
Implementations usually emit a vague linkage definition in a COMDAT group. We
could detect the group (with more code) but I feel that we should just check
STB_WEAK for simplicity. A weak definition will thus serve as an escape hatch
for rare cases when users want interposition on definitions.

address and offset are congruent modulo the page size, they do need
to be congruent modulo the segment alignment, otherwise the

In PGO, a C++ external linkage function `foo` has a private counter

In `ld.lld a.o b.o`, say a.o defines an external linkage `foo` and b.o
defines a weak `foo`. Currently we treat `comdat nodeduplicate` as `comdat any`,
ld.lld will incorrectly consider `b.o:__profc_foo` non-prevailing. In the worst
case when `b.o:__profd_foo` is retained and `b.o:__profc_foo` isn't, there will

When they are invoked on object file before the final linking step with this new approach the symbol indices correctness is preserved.
The GNU binutils tools change the REL section to RELA section, unlike llvm tools. For example when strip -S is run on the ELF object files, as an intermediate step before linking.
