Tom Stellard c17a04c6c8 ELF: Only unlink regular files
Summary:
If the output file is a character file (e.g. /dev/null) unlinking it could
potentially destabilize the user's system.  For example,
unlinking causes `lld %input -o /dev/null` to replace /dev/null with a
regular file, which will lead to unexpected behavior in other programs
that read from /dev/null, and worse than expected peformance for
programs that write to /dev/null.

This makes it possible to run the test-release.sh script as root.
Prior to this patch, the ELF/basic.s test would replace
/dev/null with a regular file, which would cause crashes in llvm
test-suite programs that piped /dev/null to stdin.

For example, if you run the test-relase.sh script as root,

isFileWritable() checked if a file is writable and then emitted
an error message if it is not writable. So it did more than the
name says. This patch moves error() calls to Driver.

James Henderson b7a90ef48e [ELF] Fail the link early if the map file path is invalid
As with the changes made in r297645, we do not want a potentially long link to
be run, if it will ultimately fail because the map file is not writable. This
change reuses the same functionality as the output file path check. See
https://reviews.llvm.org/D30449 for further justification and explanations.
