Make the penalty for splitting a region more accurately reflect the cost
of materializing all of the inputs/outputs to/from the region.
This almost entirely eliminates code growth within functions which
undergo splitting in key internal frameworks, and reduces the size of
those frameworks between 2.6% to 3%.

This broke Chromium's PGO build, it seems because hot-cold-splitting got turned
on unintentionally. See comment on the code review for repro etc.

This reverts commit 273c299d5d.
This patch adds -f[no-]split-cold-code CC1 options to clang. This allows
the splitting pass to be toggled on/off. The current method of passing
`-mllvm -hot-cold-split=true` to clang isn't ideal as it may not compose
correctly (say, with `-O0` or `-Oz`).
To implement the -fsplit-cold-code option, an attribute is applied to
functions to indicate that they may be considered for splitting. This
removes some complexity from the old/new PM pipeline builders, and
behaves as expected when LTO is enabled.

As it's causing some bot failures (and per request from kbarton).
This reverts commit r358543/ab70da07286e618016e78247e4a24fcb84077fda.

The main goal of the model is to avoid *increasing* function size, as
that would eradicate any memory locality benefits from splitting. This
happens when:
- There are too many inputs or outputs to the cold region. Argument
materialization and reloads of outputs have a cost.
- The cold region has too many distinct exit blocks, causing a large
switch to be formed in the caller.
- The code size cost of the split code is less than the cost of a
set-up call.
A secondary goal is to prevent excessive overall binary size growth.
With the cost model in place, I experimented to find a splitting
threshold that works well in practice. To make warm & cold code easily
separable for analysis purposes, I moved split functions to a "cold"
section. I experimented with thresholds between [0, 4] and set the
default to the threshold which minimized geomean __text size.
Experiment data from building LNT+externals for X86 (N = 639 programs,
all sizes in bytes):
| Configuration | __text geom size | __cold geom size | TEXT geom size |
| **-Os** | 1736.3 | 0, n=0 | 10961.6 |
| -Os, thresh=0 | 1740.53 | 124.482, n=134 | 11014 |
| -Os, thresh=1 | 1734.79 | 57.8781, n=90 | 10978.6 |
| -Os, thresh=2 | ** 1733.85 ** | 65.6604, n=61 | 10977.6 |
| -Os, thresh=3 | 1733.85 | 65.3071, n=61 | 10977.6 |
| -Os, thresh=4 | 1735.08 | 67.5156, n=54 | 10965.7 |
| **-Oz** | 1554.4 | 0, n=0 | 10153 |
| -Oz, thresh=2 | ** 1552.2 ** | 65.633, n=61 | 10176 |
| **-O3** | 2563.37 | 0, n=0 | 13105.4 |
| -O3, thresh=2 | ** 2559.49 ** | 71.1072, n=61 | 13162.4 |
Picking thresh=2 reduces the geomean __text section size by 0.14% at
-Os, -Oz, and -O3 and causes ~0.2% growth in the TEXT segment. Note that
TEXT size is page-aligned, whereas section sizes are byte-aligned.
Experiment data from building LNT+externals for ARM64 (N = 558 programs,
all sizes in bytes):
| Configuration | __text geom size | __cold geom size | TEXT geom size |
| **-Os** | 1763.96 | 0, n=0 | 42934.9 |
| -Os, thresh=2 | ** 1760.9 ** | 76.6755, n=61 | 42934.9 |
Picking thresh=2 reduces the geomean __text section size by 0.17% at
-Os and causes no growth in the TEXT segment.
Measurements were done with D57082 (r352080) applied.
