This is a pretty small bit of CMake goop to generate code coverage
reports. I always forget the right script invocation and end up
fumbling around too much.
Wouldn't it be great to have targets that "Just Work"?
Well, I thought so.
At present this only really works correctly for LLVM, but I'll extend
it in subsequent patches to work for subprojects.

This breaks out some (more) common llvm-specific
variables. Controlling the subprojects and target architectures, along
with clues about restricting build parallelism when linking. 'more
common' is somewhat subjective, of course.

The CMake community Wiki has been moved to the [[ https://gitlab.kitware.com/cmake/community/wikis/home | Kitware GitLab Instance ]].
Also, the original anchor for `Information how to set up various cross compiling toolchains` section might not work as expected. The original content is now being collapsed, so browser won't navigate to the right section directly.
Hence, I think it might be better to provide the section name instead of `this section` with link to help readers find the right section by themselves.

I found the documentation of the various CMake variables difficult to
navigate, because they are unsorted. I can see they've grown
organically with new clusters of somewhat-related options, but the
result is hard to use. This collates them (treating '_' as space).

LLVM_DEFINITIONS is a string variable containing a list of arguments
to pass to the compiler. When CMake's add_definitions is passed a
string variable, this is interpreted as one argument. To make it
behave properly, the string variable needs to be split into a list.
Despite the fact that add_definitions isn't supposed to be used like
the LLVM docs recommended, it worked fine in practice in many cases.
If the first argument in LLVM_DEFINITIONS is of the form -DFOO=42
instead of plain -DFOO, the rest of the string is treated as value
to this define. I.e. if LLVM_DEFINITIONS consists of `-DFOO=42 -DBAR`,
CMake ended up passing `-DFOO="42 -DBAR"` to the compiler.
See https://gitlab.kitware.com/cmake/cmakissues/22162
for discussion on the matter.
Changing LLVM_DEFINITIONS to be a list variable would possibly be
more disruptive; instead keep the variable defined as before but
change the recommendation for how to use it. Then projects using it
can gradually be updated to follow the new recommendation.

Beginners might not aware of this variable and wanted to try a new experimental target.
Although this variable mention in Writing a Backend Documentation. But it becomes easy to search when listed in cmake.rst doc where most variables are listed.

This patch optionally replaces the CRT allocator (i.e., malloc and free) with rpmalloc (mixed public domain licence/MIT licence) or snmalloc (MIT licence) or mimalloc (MIT licence). Please note that the source code for these allocators must be available outside of LLVM's tree.
To enable, use `cmake ... -DLLVM_INTEGRATED_CRT_ALLOC=D:/git/rpmalloc -DLLVM_USE_CRT_RELEASE=MT` where `D:/git/rpmalloc` has already been git clone'd from `https://github.com/mjansson/rpmalloc`. The same applies to snmalloc and mimalloc.
When enabled, the allocator will be embeded (statically linked) into the LLVM tools & libraries. This currently only works with the static CRT (/MT), although using the dynamic CRT (/MD) could potentially work as well in the future.
When enabled, this changes the memory stack from:
new/delete -> MS VC++ CRT malloc/free -> HeapAlloc -> VirtualAlloc
to:
new/delete -> {rpmalloc|snmalloc|mimalloc} -> VirtualAlloc
The goal of this patch is to bypass the application's global heap - which is thread-safe thus inducing locking - and instead take advantage of a modern lock-free, thread cache, allocator. On a 6-core Xeon Skylake we observe a 2.5x decrease in execution time when linking a large scale application with LLD and ThinLTO (12 min 20 sec -> 5 min 34 sec), when all hardware threads are being used (using LLD's flag /opt:lldltojobs=all). On a dual 36-core Xeon Skylake with all hardware threads used, we observe a 24x decrease in execution time (1 h 2 min -> 2 min 38 sec) when linking a large application with LLD and ThinLTO. Clang build times also see a decrease in the range 5-10% depending on the configuration.

When LLVM_APPEND_VC_REV=OFF is set, the current git hash is no
longer embedded into binaries (mostly for --version output).
Without it, most binaries need to relink after every single
commit, even if they didn't change otherwise (due to, say,
a documentation-only commit).
LLVM_APPEND_VC_REV is ON by default, so this doesn't change the
default behavior of anything.
With this, all clients of GenerateVersionFromVCS.cmake honor
LLVM_APPEND_VC_REV.

This extension point is not needed. Provide the equivalent option
through `CMAKE_CXX_STANDARD` which mirrors the previous extension point. Rely on
CMake to provide the check for the compiler instead.
It is sometimes useful to have the C++ standard library linked into the
assembly when compiling clang, particularly when distributing a compiler
onto systems that don't have a copy of stdlibc++ or libc++ installed.
This functionality should work with either GCC or Clang as the host
compiler, though statically linking libc++ (as may be required for
licensing purposes) is only possible if the host compiler is Clang with
a copy of libc++ available.
