Today, we always take into account the possibility that object files
produced by MC may be consumed by an incremental linker. This results
in us initialing fields which vary with time (TimeDateStamp) which harms
hermetic builds (e.g. verifying a self-host went well) and produces
sub-optimal code because we cannot assume anything about the relative
position of functions within a section (call sites can get redirected
through incremental linker thunks).
Let's provide an MCTargetOption which controls this behavior so that we
can disable this functionality if we know a-priori that the build will
not rely on /incremental.

There are two main advantages to doing this
* Targets that only need to handle one of the formats specially don't have
to worry about the others. For example, x86 now only registers a
constructor for the COFF streamer.
* Changes to the arguments passed to one format constructor will not impact
the other formats.

Introduce support for WoA PE/COFF object file emission from LLVM. Add the new
target specific PE/COFF Streamer (ARMWinCOFFStreamer) that handles the ARM
specific behaviour of PE/COFF object emission. ARM exception information is not
yet emitted and is a TODO item.
The ARM specific object writer (ARMWinCOFFObjectWriter) handles the ARM specific
relocation handling in conjunction with the WinCOFFObjectWriter in the MC layer.
The MC layer needs to be updated to deal with the relocation adjustments.
Branch relocations are adjusted by 4 bytes (unlikely their ELF counterparts).
Minor tweaks to switch multiple conditional checks into equivalent switch
statements. The ObjectFileInfo is updated to relax the object file setup for
Windows COFF. Move the architecture checks into an assertion. Windows COFF is
currently only supported on x86, x86_64, and ARM (thumb). Rather than
defaulting to ELF, we will refuse to generate an object file. This is better
though as you do not get an (arbitrary) object file which is different from the
request.
