Previously we set `isFuncEntry` flag to true when the funcName from DWARF is equal to the name in symbol table and we use this flag to ignore reporting callsite sample that's from an intra func branch. However, in HHVM, it appears that the symbol table name is inconsistent with the dwarf info func name, it's likely due to `OptimizeGlobalAliases`.
This change is a workaround in llvm-profgen side to mark the only one range as the function entry and add warnings for the remaining inconsistence.
This also fixed a missing `getCanonicalFnName` for symbol name which caused the mismatching as well.

[[noreturn]] can be used since Oct 2016 when the minimum compiler requirement was bumped to GCC 4.8/MSVC 2015.
Note: the definition of LLVM_ATTRIBUTE_NORETURN is kept for now.
This stack of changes introduces `llvm-profgen` utility which generates a profile data file from given perf script data files for sample-based PGO. It’s part of(not only) the CSSPGO work. Specifically to support context-sensitive with/without pseudo probe profile, it implements a series of functionalities including perf trace parsing, instruction symbolization, LBR stack/call frame stack unwinding, pseudo probe decoding, etc. Also high throughput is achieved by multiple levels of sample aggregation and compatible format with one stop is generated at the end. Please refer to: https://groups.google.com/g/llvm-dev/c/1p1rdYbL93s for the CSSPGO RFC.
This change enables disassembling the text sections to build various address maps that are potentially used by the virtual unwinder. A switch `--show-disassembly` is being added to print the disassembly code.
Like the llvm-objdump tool, this change leverages existing LLVM components to parse and disassemble ELF binary files. So far X86 is supported.
Test Plan:
ninja check-llvm

As a starter, this change sets up an entry point by introducing PerfReader to load profiled binaries and perf traces(including perf events and perf samples). For the event, here it parses the mmap2 events from perf script to build the loader snaps, which is used to retrieve the image load address in the subsequent perf tracing parsing.
As described in llvm-profgen.rst, the tool being built aims to support multiple input perf data (preprocessed by perf script) as well as multiple input binary images. It should also support dynamic reload/unload shared objects by leveraging the loader snaps being built by this change
