This patch makes ownership of the JITLinkMemoryManager by ObjectLinkingLayer
optional: the layer can still own the memory manager but no longer has to.
Evevntually we want to move to a state where ObjectLinkingLayer never owns its
memory manager. For now allowing optional ownership makes it easier to develop
classes that can dynamically use either RTDyldObjectLinkingLayer, which owns
its memory managers, or ObjectLinkingLayer (e.g. LLJIT).
TPCDynamicLibrarySearchGenerator uses a TargetProcessControl instance to
load libraries and search for symbol addresses in a target process. It
can be used in place of a DynamicLibrarySearchGenerator to enable
target-process agnostic lookup.
TargetProcessControl is a new API for communicating with JIT target processes.
It supports memory allocation and access, and inspection of some process
properties, e.g. the target proces triple and page size.
Centralizing these APIs allows utilities written against TargetProcessControl
to remain independent of the communication procotol with the target process
(which may be direct memory access/allocation for in-process JITing, or may
involve some form of IPC or RPC).
An initial set of TargetProcessControl-based utilities for lazy compilation is
provided by the TPCIndirectionUtils class.
An initial implementation of TargetProcessControl for in-process JITing
is provided by the SelfTargetProcessControl class.
An example program showing how the APIs can be used is provided in
llvm/examples/OrcV2Examples/LLJITWithTargetProcessControl.
