Currently there is no way to describe the data that is not a part of an output section.
It can be a data used to align sections or to fill the gaps with something,
or another kind of custom data. In this patch I suggest a way to describe it. It looks like that:
```
Sections:
- Type: CustomFiller
Pattern: "CCDD"
Size: 4
- Name: .bar
Type: SHT_PROGBITS
Content: "FF"
```
I.e. I've added a kind of synthetic section with a synthetic type "CustomFiller".
In the code it is called a "SyntheticFiller", which is "a synthetic section which
might be used to write the custom data around regular output sections. It does
not present in the sections header table, but it might affect the output file size and
program headers produced. Think about it as about piece of data."
`SyntheticFiller` currently has a `Pattern` field and a `Size` field + an optional `Name`.
When written, `Size` of bytes in the output will be filled with a `Pattern`.
It is possible to reference a named filler it by name from the program headers description,
just like any other normal section.

Summary:
Rewrite one of the invalid macho test input file with YAML file. The
original invalid macho is breaking our internal test infrastusture
because it is too broken to be copy around.
Need to relax an assertion in the YAML/MachoEmitter to allow yaml2obj to
write an invalid object like this.

This is the "official" constant for arm64. We also have another constant
for arm64 (called BP_ARM64), which was used by breakpad while there was
no official constant for arm64 available.
The architecture enum contains two kinds of contstants: the "official" ones
defined by Microsoft, and unofficial constants added by breakpad to cover the
architectures not described by the first ones.
Up until now, there was no big need to differentiate between the two. However,
now that Microsoft has defined
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/api/sysinfoapi/ns-sysinfoapi-system_info
a constant for ARM64, we have a name clash.
This patch renames all breakpad-defined constants with to include the prefix
"BP_". This frees up the name "ARM64", which I'll re-introduce with the new
"official" value in a follow-up patch.

Before this change .symtab section was required for SHT_REL[A] section
declarations. yaml2obj automatically defined it in case when YAML document
did not have it.
With this change it is now possible to produce an object that
has a relocation section, but has no symbol table.
It simplifies the code and also it is inline with how we handle Link fields
for another special sections.

SHT_NOTE is the section that consists of
namesz, descsz, type, name + padding, desc + padding data.
This patch teaches yaml2obj, obj2yaml to dump and parse them.
This patch implements the section how it is described here:
https://docs.oracle.com/cd/E23824_01/html/819-0690/chapter6-18048.html
Which says: "For 64–bit objects and 32–bit objects, each entry is an array of 4-byte words in
the format of the target processor"
The official specification is different
http://www.sco.com/developers/gabi/latest/ch5.pheader.html#note_section
And says: "n 64-bit objects (files with e_ident[EI_CLASS] equal to ELFCLASS64), each entry is an array
of 8-byte words in the format of the target processor. In 32-bit objects (files with e_ident[EI_CLASS]
equal to ELFCLASS32), each entry is an array of 4-byte words in the format of the target processor"
Since LLVM uses the first, 32-bit way, this patch follows it.

This patch tries to resolve problems faced in D68943
and uses some of the code written by Konrad Wilhelm Kleine
in that patch.
Previously, yaml2obj tool always created a .symtab section.
This patch changes that. With it we only create it when
have a "Symbols:" tag in the YAML document or when
we need to create it because it is used by another section(s).
obj2yaml follows the new behavior and does not print "Symbols:"
anymore when there is no symbol table.

Summary:
The implementation is fairly straight-forward and uses the same patterns
as the existing streams. The yaml form does not attempt to preserve the
data in the "gaps" that can be created by setting a larger-than-required
header or entry size in the stream header, because the existing consumer
(lldb) does not make use of the information in the gap in any way, and
attempting to preserve that would make the implementation more
complicated.

refactoring/improvement and the idea by itself was mentioned
in the following thread:

This performs a cleanup of all object emitters in the library.
It allows using the custom one provided by the caller.

e.g: "yaml2obj: error: <text>"
Also, the code became a bit simpler.

The address difference between two sections in a PT_LOAD is a constant.
Consider a hypothetical case (pagesize can be very small, say, 4).
```
.text sh_addralign=4
.text.hot sh_addralign=16
```
If we set p_align to 4, the PT_LOAD will be loaded at an address which
is a multiple of 4. The address of .text.hot is guaranteed to be a
multiple of 4, but not necessarily a multiple of 16.

The aim of this patch is to refactor how we handle and report error.
I suggest to use the same approach we use in LLD: delayed error reporting.
For that I introduced 'HasError' flag which triggers when we report an error.
Now we do not exit instantly on any error. The benefits are:
1) There are no more 'exit(1)' calls in the library code.
2) Code was simplified significantly in a few places.
3) It is now possible to print multiple errors instead of only one.
Also, I changed the messages to be lower case and removed a full stop.

Linkers (ld.bfd/gold/lld) place the section header table at the very
end. This allows tools to strip it, which is optional in executable/shared objects.
In addition, if we add or section, the size of the section header table
will change. Placing the section header table in the end keeps section
offsets unchanged.
yaml2obj currently places the section header table immediately after the
program header. Follow what linkers do to make offset updating easier.

Currenly we can encode the 'st_other' field of symbol using 3 fields.
'Visibility' is used to encode STV_* values.
'Other' is used to encode everything except the visibility, but it can't handle arbitrary values.
'StOther' is used to encode arbitrary values when 'Visibility'/'Other' are not helpfull enough.
'st_other' field is used to encode symbol visibility and platform-dependent
flags and values. Problem to encode it is that it consists of Visibility part (STV_* values)
which are enumeration values and the Other part, which is different and inconsistent.
For MIPS the Other part contains flags for all STO_MIPS_* values except STO_MIPS_MIPS16.
(Like comment in ELFDumper says: "Someones in their infinite wisdom decided to make
STO_MIPS_MIPS16 flag overlapped with other ST_MIPS_xxx flags."...)
And for PPC64 the Other part might actually encode any value.
This patch implements custom logic for handling the st_other and removes
'Visibility' and 'StOther' fields.
Here is an example of a new YAML style this patch allows:
- Name: foo
Other: [ 0x4 ]
- Name: bar
Other: [ STV_PROTECTED, 4 ]
- Name: zed
Other: [ STV_PROTECTED, STO_MIPS_OPTIONAL, 0xf8 ]
