What was done:
1) .got.plt section is created for functions that requires PLT. .got.plt has 3 predefined empty entries now that are required for dynamic linker.
Also other new items created are configured to have correct jump to PLT[N].
2) PLT section now has PLT[0] entry, also others ones are configured to support PLT->GOT(.got.plt) calls.
3) Implemented .rel[a].plt sections (based on patch http://reviews.llvm.org/D13569).
4) Fixed plt relocations types (based on patch http://reviews.llvm.org/D13589).
NOTES:
The .plt.got zero entry is still empty now. According to ELF specification it should hold the address of the dynamic structure, referenced with the symbol
_DYNAMIC. The _DYNAMIC entry points to the .dynamic section which contains information used by the ELF interpreter to setup the binary.

Now all Target<Arch> classes are used only in Target.cpp.
We can put them in an anonymous namespace. In order to avoid
merge conflict with other people's patches, I'll do that later.

Under PPC64 ELF v1 ABI, the symbols associated with each function name don't
point directly to the code in the .text section (or similar), but rather to a
function descriptor structure in a special data section named .opd. The
elements in the .opd structure include a pointer to the actual code, and a the
relevant TOC base value. Both of these are themselves set by relocations.
When we have a local call, we need the relevant relocation to refer directly to
the target code, not to the function-descriptor in the .opd section. Only when
we have a .plt stub do we care about the address of the .opd function
descriptor itself.
So we make a few changes here:
1. Always write .opd first, so that its relocated data values are available
for later use when writing the text sections. Record a pointer to the .opd
structure, and its corresponding buffer.
2. When processing a relative branch relocation under ppc64, if the
destination points into the .opd section, read the code pointer out of the
function descriptor structure and use that instead.
This this, I can link, and run, a dynamically-compiled "hello world"
application on big-Endian PPC64/Linux (ELF v1 ABI) using lld.

Under the PPC64 ELF ABI, functions that might call into other modules (and,
thus, need to load a different TOC base value into %r2), need to restore the
old value after the call. The old value is saved by the .plt code, and the
caller only needs to include a nop instruction after the call, which the linker
will transform into a TOC restore if necessary.
In order to do this the relocation handler needs two things:
1. It needs to know whether the call instruction it is modifying is targeting
a .plt stub that will load a new TOC base value (necessitating a restore after
the call).
2. It needs to know where the buffer ends, so that it does not accidentally
run off the end of the buffer when looking for the 'nop' instruction after the
call.
Given these two pieces of information, we can insert the restore instruction in
place of the following nop when necessary.

As pointed out by Rui (post-commit review), we need to always return based on
the section type when the types differ to ensure a strict weak ordering.

This is mostly an adaptation of the code in LLVM's
lib/ExecutionEngine/RuntimeDyld/RuntimeDyldELF.cpp, and handles a sufficient
number of relocations to link a 'hello world' program on big-Endian PPC64/Linux
(ELF v1 ABI).

PPC64 has several special sections that are intended to be accessed from the
TOC base pointer. When a .got is present, the TOC base pointer is .got + 0x8000
(as specified by the ABI). Furthermore, the glibc startup code contains an
assumption that a 16-bit relocation can hold the offset from the TOC base value
to the beginning of the .toc section. Thus, we need to make sure that .toc
appears after .got. This much, at least, is required in practice. The other
PPC64 special sections (.toc, .toc1, .opd, etc.) should also be close by to
optimize access by smaller TOC-base-pointer offsets.

This patch adds AsNeeded and IsUsed bool fields to SharedFile. AsNeeded bit
is set if the DSO is enclosed with --as-needed and --no-as-needed. IsUsed
bit is off by default. When we adds a symbol to the symbol table for dynamic
linking, we set its SharedFile's IsUsed bit.
If AsNeeded is set but IsUsed is not set, we don't want to write that
file's SO name to DT_NEEDED field.

In the linker script, -l and = have the same meaning as in the command line.
In addition to that, if a path is not absolute, the path needs to be searched
from the search paths. This patch implements them.

Previously, each ArgParser owned a BumpPtrAllocator, and arguments parsed
by an ArgParser would refer strings allocated using the BumpPtrAllocator
only when response files were used. This could cause a subtle bug because
such ownership was not obvious.
This patch moves the ownership from ArgParser to Driver and make the
ownership explicit.
