We used to support both Windows and Unix style command line options. In Windows
style, an option and its value are separated by ":" (colon). In Unix, separator
is a space. Accepting both styles were convenient, but we can no longer allow
Unix style because I found that can be ambiguous.
For example, /nodefaultlib option takes an optional argument. In Windows style
it's going to be something like "/nodefaultlib:foo". There's no ambiguity what
"foo" means. However, if the option is "/nodefaultlib foo", "foo" can be
interpreted either an optional argument for "/nodefaultlib" or an input file
"foo.obj". We should just stop accepting the non-standard command line style.

These options are to enable DLL delay loading. If enabled, DLL is loaded
at run time by a helper routine when a function in the DLL is actually called
for the first time, instead of making the Windows loader to load all DLLs at
startup time. This should shorten startup delay if an executable have many
imported symbols.
The linker needs to create a "delayed import table" and link delayimp.lib in
which helper functions are defined to support the feature.
For now, we just ignore the options, so that the linker does not complain when
it sees these options. We want to support them in the future.

Summary:
This patch changes WriterPECOFF to actually write down the address instead of ignoring it.
Also, it changes the order of adding the BaseReloc chunk as otherwise the address wasn't set yet.
I think a better way of doing it would be to change DataDirectoryAtom to create a Reference
instead of using a number, and to change IdataPass accordingly, but I'm not sure how to do that.

This adds an option --output-filetype that can be set to either
YAML/Native(case insensitive). The linker would create the outputs
associated with the type specified by the user.
Changes all the tests to use the new option.

GNU LD driver only understood no_such_file_or_directory error and was showing
just "Unknown Error" for any other type of error. With this patch, the driver
now prints file name and error message string by default.

/incremental is an option to enable incremental linking. We will eventually
want to implement the feature for better performance, but in the meantime,
we want to just ignore the option so that the linker does not output unknown
option error when it sees /incremental option.

If a subclass does not override the member function, the superclass's method
takes care of string conversion of "file not found" error. This is a reasonable
default behavior. Subclasses are still able to override to customize error
messages.

/errorReport is a command line option to let the linker to report internal
linker error information to Microsoft. For LLD that option doesn't make any

Base relocation block should be aligned on a 32-bit boundary. While the PECOFF
spec mentions only aligning the blocks, and not padding them, link.exe seems
to add an extra IMAGE_REL_I386_ABSOLUTE entry (just a zeroed WORD) in order to
pad the blocks.

This sets the sectionChoice property for DefinedAtoms. The output section name
is derived by the property of the atom. This also decreases native file size.

This patch changes lld to go through all sections while calculating the size
for SizeOfCode, SizeOfInitializedData and SizeOfUninitializedData fields in the
PE header, instead of using only a small set of hard-coded sections.
This only really changes SizeOfInitializedData which didn't include .reloc
section before this patch.

There was a bug that if a section has an alignment requirement and there are
multiple symbols at offset 0 in the section, only the last atom at offset 0
would be aligned properly. That bug would move only the last symbol to an
alignment boundary, leaving other symbols unaligned, although they should be at
the same location. That caused a mysterious SEGV error of the resultant
executable.
With this patch, we manage all symbols at the same location properly, rather
than keeping the last one.
llvm-svn: 190724
Alignment(1) does not mean that the atom should be aligned on a 1 byte
boundary but on a 2^1 boundary. So, atoms without any specific alignment
requirements should have Alignment(0).

This handles multiple weak symbols which appear back to back. This fix is needed
which otherwise will lead to symbols getting initialized to arbitrary values.
There was a constructor/destructor test that really triggered this to be fixed
on X86_64.
Adds a test.

So that we can determine what the target architecture is. Adding this
field does not mean that we are going to support non-i386 architectures
soon; there are many things to do to support them, and I'm focusing on
i386 now. But this is the first step toward multi architecture support.

In COFF, an undefined symbol can have up to one alternative name. If a symbol
is resolved by its regular name, then it's linked normally. If a symbol is not
found in any input files, all references to the regular name are resolved using
the alternative name. If the alternative name is not found, it's a link error.
This mechanism is called "weak externals".
To support this mechanism, I added a new member function fallback() to undefined
atom. If an undefined atom has the second name, fallback() returns a new undefined
atom that should be used instead of the original one to resolve undefines. If it
does not have the second name, the function returns nullptr.

We need to order atoms that exist in the same chain. This is to make sure that

The compiler is allowed to add a linker option starting with -?<name> to
.drectve section. If the linker can interpret -<name>, it's processed as if
there's no question mark there. If not, such option is silently ignored.
This is a COFF's feature to allow the compiler to emit new linker options
while keeping compatibility with older linkers.
