Peter Collingbourne 31fda09b2d Add IR support, ELF section and user documentation for partitioning feature.
The partitioning feature was proposed here:
http://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/llvm-dev/2019-February/130583.html

This is mostly just documentation. The feature itself will be contributed
in subsequent patches.

James Y Knight 5d71fc5d7b Adjust documentation for git migration.
This fixes most references to the paths:
 llvm.org/svn/
 llvm.org/git/
 llvm.org/viewvc/
 github.com/llvm-mirror/
 github.com/llvm-project/
 reviews.llvm.org/diffusion/

to instead point to https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project.

This is *not* a trivial substitution, because additionally, all the
checkout instructions had to be migrated to instruct users on how to
use the monorepo layout, setting LLVM_ENABLE_PROJECTS instead of
checking out various projects into various subdirectories.

I've attempted to not change any scripts here, only documentation. The
scripts will have to be addressed separately.

Additionally, I've deleted one document which appeared to be outdated
and unneeded:
  lldb/docs/building-with-debug-llvm.txt

Nico Weber 6a5d94cc08 lld/include/lld/Core/TODO.txt
- fix minor grammar stuff (I'm not a native speaker either, but it's hopefully a net improvement)
- mention that lld/coff is used in production
- update AArch64, ARM to production quality
- remove lld/include/lld/Core/TODO.txt which looks outdated

Rui Ueyama 42fca6e794 Recommend users use readelf instead of objdump to dump .comment contents.
readelf's output is much easier to read than objdump's as you can see below.

  $ readelf --string-dump .comment foo
  String dump of section '.comment':

Rui Ueyama 8b1c940c0b Re-add ReleaseNotes to the doc tree.
Looks like it is not allowed to have an .rst file in this directory
that does not belong to a document tree. I don't know why. This patch
adds a file back to fix a bot.

Rui Ueyama aa7b304ea7 Remove the Native file format.
The Native file format was designed to be the fastest on-memory or
on-disk file format for object files. The problem is that no one
is working on that. No LLVM tools can produce object files in
the Native, thus the feature of supporting the format is useless
in the linker.

This patch removes the Native file support. We can add it back
if we really want it in future.
