Previously, we only supported binding dysyms to the GOT. This
diff adds support for binding them to any arbitrary section. C++
programs appear to use this, I believe for vtables and type_info.
This diff also makes our bind opcode encoding a bit smarter -- we now
encode just the differences between bindings, which will make things
more compact.
I was initially concerned about the performance overhead of iterating
over these relocations, but it turns out that the number of such
relocations is small. A quick analysis of my llvm-project build
directory showed that < 1.3% out of ~7M relocations are RELOC_UNSIGNED
bindings to symbols (including both dynamic and static symbols).

Summary:
ld64 does this, and references an internal rdar:// number as an explanation. No
idea what that rdar issue is, but in practice, it seems that not putting a BSS
section at the end can cause subsequent sections in the same segment to be
overwritten with zeroes.

Summary:
There were a few issues with the previous setup:
1. The section sorting comparator used a declarative map of section names to
determine the correct order, but it turns out we need to match on more than
just names -- in particular, an upcoming diff will sort based on whether the
S_ZERO_FILL flag is set. This diff changes the sorter to a more imperative but
flexible form.
2. We were sorting OutputSections stored in a MapVector, which left the
MapVector in an inconsistent state -- the wrong keys map to the wrong values!
In practice, we weren't doing key lookups (only container iteration) after the
sort, so this was fine, but it was still a dubious state of affairs. This diff
copies the OutputSections to a vector before sorting them.
3. We were adding unneeded OutputSections to OutputSegments and then filtering
them out later, which meant that we had to remember whether an OutputSegment
was in a pre- or post-filtered state. This diff only adds the sections to the
segments if they are needed.
In addition to those major changes, two minor ones worth noting:
1. I renamed all OutputSection variable names to `osec`, to parallel `isec`.
Previously we were using some inconsistent combination of `osec`, `os`, and
`section`.
2. I added a check (and a test) for InputSections with names that clashed with
those of our synthetic OutputSections.

Summary:
llvm-mc emits `__bss` sections with an offset of zero, but we weren't expecting
that in our input, so we were copying non-zero data from the start of the file and
putting it in `__bss`, with obviously undesirable runtime results. (It appears that
the kernel will copy those nonzero bytes as long as the offset is nonzero, regardless
of whether S_ZERO_FILL is set.)
I debated on whether to make a special ZeroFillSection -- separate from a
regular InputSection -- but it seemed like too much work for now. But I'm happy
to refactor if anyone feels strongly about having it as a separate class.

Add support to lld to use Text Based API stubs for linking. This is
support is incomplete not filtering out platforms. It also does not
account for architecture specific API handling and potentially does not
correctly handle trees of re-exports with inlined libraries being
treated as direct children of the top level library.
Use the default target triple configured by the user to determine the
default architecture for `ld64.lld`. Stash the architecture in the
configuration as when linking against TBDs, we will need to filter out
the symbols based upon the architecture. Treat the Haswell slice as it
is equivalent to `x86_64` but with the extra Haswell extensions (e.g.
AVX2, FMA3, BMI1, etc). This will make it easier to add new
architectures in the future.
This change also changes the failure mode where an invalid `-arch`
parameter will result in the linker exiting without further processing.
This merges the static and shared library and behaves as if
`-search_paths_first` was specified which is also the default behaviour
on ld64 (and now lld). Unify the paths, and use `llvm::sys::path` to
deal with the path to be truly agnostic to the host.
This is a very basic static library search addition. This is the pre-Xcode4
behaviour of searching all paths for the shared version before searching for
the static version of the library. This behaviour is supposed to be inverted
with `-search_paths_first` being the default. This adds the library search
with the intention of providing the setup to merge the paths into one path
and making it controllable by `OPT_search_paths_first`.
For consistency.
The no-id-dylib test was originally referencing the Inputs/ folder via a
relative path. Instead of updating that path, I decided to make the test
self-contained.

I considered making a `Target::validate()` method, but I wasn't sure how
I felt about the overhead of doing yet another switch-dispatch on the
relocation type, so I put the validation in `relocateOne` instead...
might be a bit of a micro-optimization, but `relocateOne` does assume
certain things about the relocations it gets, and this error handling
makes that explicit, so it's not a totally unreasonable code
organization.

Summary:
This allows us to link against stripped dylibs. Moreover, it's simply
more correct: The symbol table includes symbols that the dylib uses but
doesn't export.
This temporarily regresses our ability to do lazy symbol binding because
dyld_stub_binder isn't in libSystem's export trie. Rather, it is in one
of the sub-libraries libSystem re-exports. (This doesn't affect our
tests since we are mocking out dyld_stub_binder there.) A follow-up diff
will address this by adding support for sub-libraries.

Summary:
This diff implements lazy symbol binding -- very similar to the PLT
mechanism in ELF.
ELF's .plt section is broken up into two sections in Mach-O:
StubsSection and StubHelperSection. Calls to functions in dylibs will
end up calling into StubsSection, which contains indirect jumps to
addresses stored in the LazyPointerSection (the counterpart to ELF's
.plt.got).
Initially, the LazyPointerSection contains addresses that point into one
of the entry points in the middle of the StubHelperSection. The code in
StubHelperSection will push on the stack an offset into the
LazyBindingSection. The push is followed by a jump to the beginning of
the StubHelperSection (similar to PLT0), which then calls into
dyld_stub_binder. dyld_stub_binder is a non-lazily bound symbol, so this
call looks it up in the GOT.
The stub binder will look up the bind opcodes in the LazyBindingSection
at the given offset. The bind opcodes will tell the binder to update the
address in the LazyPointerSection to point to the symbol, so that
subsequent calls don't have to redo the symbol resolution. The binder
will then jump to the resolved symbol.
Depends on D78269.

Summary:
1. Don't have isHidden() depend on isNeeded(). Whether a section is
hidden is orthogonal from whether it is needed: hidden sections will
never have a header regardless of whether they have a body. (I know we
override this method with return false for synthetic sections, but
regardless I think it's confusing to write it this way for non-synthetic
sections.)
2. Don't call writeTo() on unneeded sections. D78270 assumes that this
is true when implementing the stub helper section.
3. Filter out the unneeded sections early on to avoid having to deal
with them in multiple places.
4. Remove assumption in test that the referenced file has no other symbols.
(We should create separate input files for future tests to avoid such
issues.)
