One more attempt to re-commit the patch r285355, which I had to revert in r285362, because some tests were failing (the reason is because the size of the line_table varied depending on the full file name).
In the past the compiler always emitted .debug_line version 2, though some opcodes from DWARF 3 (e.g. DW_LNS_set_prologue_end, DW_LNS_set_epilogue_begin or DW_LNS_set_isa) and from DWARF 4 could be emitted by the compiler.
This patch changes version information of .debug_line to exactly match the DWARF version. For .debug_line version 4, a new field maximum_operations_per_instruction is emitted.

The compiler occasionally generates multiple .loc directives in a row
(at the same instruction address). These need to be transformed into
multple actual .debug_line table entries, since they are used to signal
certain information to the debugger (e.g. if the opening brace of a
function body is on the same line as the declaration).
The MCAsmStreamer version of EmitDwarfLocDirective handles this
correctly by emitting a .loc directive every time it is called.
However, the MCObjectStream version simply defaults to recording
the information and emitting only a single table entry later,
e.g. when EmitInstruction is called.
This patch introduces a MCAsmStreamer::EmitDwarfLocDirective
version that emits a line table entry for a .loc directive
that may already be pending before recording the new directive.
(This is similar to how this is handled in GNU as.)
With this patch (and the code alignment factor patch) applied,
I'm now getting identical DWARF .debug sections for all test-suite
object files on PowerPC for the internal and the external assembler.
