OptTable treats arguments starting with / that aren't a known option
as filenames. This means lld-link's and clang-cl's typo correction for
unknown flags didn't do spell checking for misspelled options that start
with /.
I first tried changing OptTable, but that got pretty messy, see PR41787
comments 2 and 3.
Instead, let lld-link's and clang's (including clang-cl's) "file not
found" diagnostic check if a non-existent file looks like it could be a
mis-spelled option, and if so add a "did you mean" suggestion to the
"file not found" diagnostic.
While here, make formatting of a few diagnostics a bit more
self-consistent.
Fixes PR41787.

For lld-link, unknown '/'-style flags are treated as filenames on POSIX
systems, so only '-'-style flags get typo correction for now. This
matches clang-cl.

This is an initial patch for a section-based COFF linker.
The patch has 2300 lines of code including comments and blank lines.
Before diving into details, you want to start from reading README
because it should give you an overview of the design.
All important things are written in the README file, so I write
summary here.
- The linker is already able to self-link on Windows.
- It's significantly faster than the existing implementation.
The existing one takes 5 seconds to link LLD on my machine,
while the new one only takes 1.2 seconds, even though the new
one is not multi-threaded yet. (And a proof-of-concept multi-
threaded version was able to link it in 0.5 seconds.)
- It uses much less memory (250MB vs. 2GB virtual memory space
to self-host).
- IMHO the new code is much simpler and easier to read than
the existing PE/COFF port.
