In a UI such as XCode, it can group the headers for a library with that library.
This is done in the CMakeLists.txt for the library itself by setting the path(s)
as ADDITIONAL_HEADER_DIRS.
LLVM already does this for all of its libraries, so just adding this to lld to
make things easier. Should be NFC.

In a UI such as XCode, LLVM source files are in 'libraries' while clang
files are in 'clang libraries'.
This change moves the lld source to 'lld libraries' to make code browsing easier.
It should be NFC as the build itself is still the same, just the structure in a
UI differs.

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.

The round-trip passes were introduced in r193300. The intention of
the change was to make sure that LLD is capable of reading end
writing such file formats.
But that turned out to be yet another over-designed stuff that had
been slowing down everyday development.
The passes ran after the core linker and before the writer. If you
had an additional piece of information that needs to be passed from
front-end to the writer, you had to invent a way to save the data to
YAML/Native. These passes forced us to do that even if that data
was not needed to be represented neither in an object file nor in
an executable/DSO. It doesn't make sense. We don't need these passes.

Before this patch there was a cyclic dependency between lldCore and
lldReaderWriter. Only lldConfig could be built as a shared library.
* Moved Reader and Writer base classes into lldCore.
* The following shared libraries can now be built:
lldCore
lldYAML
lldNative
lldPasses
lldReaderWriter

The use of std::future introduces an implicit dependency on the PPL
subcomponent of ConcRT. ConcRT in general is pretty noisy with
warnings, so this patch just disables one of the noisy warnings.

The parsing routines in the linker script to parse strings encoded in various
formats(hexadecimal, octal, decimal, etc), is needed by the GNU driver too. This
library provides helper functions for all flavors and flavors to add helper
functions which other flavors may make use of.

target_link_libraries(INTERFACE) doesn't bring inter-target dependencies in add_library,
although final targets have dependencies to whole dependent libraries.
It makes most libraries can be built in parallel.
target_link_libraries(PRIVATE) is used to shaared library.
Each dependent library is linked to the target.so, and its user will not see its grandchildren.
For example,
- libclang.so has sufficient libclang*.a(s).
- c-index-test requires just only libclang.so.
FIXME: lld is tweaked minimally. Adding INTERFACE in each library would be better thing.

The main changes are in:
include/lld/Core/Reference.h
include/lld/ReaderWriter/Reader.h
Everything else is details to support the main change.
1) Registration based Readers
Previously, lld had a tangled interdependency with all the Readers. It would
have been impossible to make a streamlined linker (say for a JIT) which
just supported one file format and one architecture (no yaml, no archives, etc).
The old model also required a LinkingContext to read an object file, which
would have made .o inspection tools awkward.
The new model is that there is a global Registry object. You programmatically
register the Readers you want with the registry object. Whenever you need to
read/parse a file, you ask the registry to do it, and the registry tries each
registered reader.
For ease of use with the existing lld code base, there is one Registry
object inside the LinkingContext object.
2) Changing kind value to be a tuple
Beside Readers, the registry also keeps track of the mapping for Reference
Kind values to and from strings. Along with that, this patch also fixes
an ambiguity with the previous Reference::Kind values. The problem was that
we wanted to reuse existing relocation type values as Reference::Kind values.
But then how can the YAML write know how to convert a value to a string? The
fix is to change the 32-bit Reference::Kind into a tuple with an 8-bit namespace
(e.g. ELF, COFFF, etc), an 8-bit architecture (e.g. x86_64, PowerPC, etc), and
a 16-bit value. This tuple system allows conversion to and from strings with
no ambiguities.

This adds LinkerScript support by creating a type Script which is of type
FileNode in the InputGraph. Once the LinkerScript Parser converts the
LinkerScript into a sequence of command, the commands are handled by the
equivalent LinkerScript node for the current Flavor/Target. For ELF, a
ELFGNULdScript gets created which converts the commands to ELF nodes and ELF
control nodes(ELFGroup for handling Group nodes).
Since the Inputfile type has to be determined in the Driver, the Driver needs
to determine the complete path of the file that needs to be processed by the
Linker. Due to this, few tests have been removed since the Driver uses paths
that doesnot exist.
llvm-svn: 195583
Changes :-
a) Functionality in InputGraph to insert Input elements at any position
b) Functionality in the Resolver to use nextFile
c) Move the functionality of assigning file ordinals to InputGraph
d) Changes all inputs to MemoryBuffers
e) Remove LinkerInput, InputFiles, ReaderArchive

Also change some local variable names: "ti" -> "context" and
"_targetInfo" -> "_context".

The major changes are:
1) LinkerOptions has been merged into TargetInfo
2) LinkerInvocation has been merged into Driver
3) Drivers no longer convert arguments into an intermediate (core) argument
list, but instead create a TargetInfo object and call setter methods on
it. This is only how in-process linking would work. That is, you can
programmatically set up a TargetInfo object which controls the linking.
4) Lots of tweaks to test suite to work with driver changes
5) Add the DarwinDriver
6) I heavily doxygen commented TargetInfo.h
Things to do after this patch is committed:
a) Consider renaming TargetInfo, given its new roll.
b) Consider pulling the list of input files out of TargetInfo. This will
enable in-process clients to create one TargetInfo the re-use it with
different input file lists.
c) Work out a way for Drivers to format the warnings and error done in
core linking.

now Reader and Writer subclasses for each file format. Each Reader and
Writer subclass defines an "options" class which controls how that Reader
or Writer operates.
