Move LTO::run() to a "run" subcommand so that we can introduce new subcommands
for testing different parts of the LTO implementation.
This doesn't use llvm::cl subcommands because it doesn't appear to be currently
possible to pass an argument not associated with a subcommand to a subcommand
(e.g. -lto-use-new-pm, -mcpu=yonah).

Summary:
The cumulative size of the bitcode files for a very large application
can be huge, particularly with -g. In a distributed build environment,
all of these files must be sent to the remote build node that performs
the thin link step, and this can exceed size limits.
The thin link actually only needs the summary along with a bitcode
symbol table. Until we have a proper bitcode symbol table, simply
stripping the debug metadata results in significant size reduction.
Add support for an option to additionally emit minimized bitcode
modules, just for use in the thin link step, which for now just strips
all debug metadata. I plan to add a cc1 option so this can be invoked
easily during the compile step.
However, care must be taken to ensure that these minimized thin link
bitcode files produce the same index as with the original bitcode files,
as these original bitcode files will be used in the backends.
Specifically:
1) The module hash used for caching is typically produced by hashing the
written bitcode, and we want to include the hash that would correspond
to the original bitcode file. This is because we want to ensure that
changes in the stripped portions affect caching. Added plumbing to emit
the same module hash in the minimized thin link bitcode file.
2) The module paths in the index are constructed from the module ID of
each thin linked bitcode, and typically is automatically generated from
the input file path. This is the path used for finding the modules to
import from, and obviously we need this to point to the original bitcode
files. Added gold-plugin support to take a suffix replacement during the
thin link that is used to override the identifier on the MemoryBufferRef
constructed from the loaded thin link bitcode file. The assumption is
that the build system can specify that the minimized bitcode file has a
name that is similar but uses a different suffix (e.g. out.thinlink.bc
instead of out.o).
Added various tests to ensure that we get identical index files out of
the thin link step.

Also, udpate the ~60 failing tests in the tree which did
not contain a valid datalayout.
This fixes PR31123. lld will be updated in a following patch,
immediately after this is committed.

Summary:
The recent change I made to consult the summary when deciding whether to
rename (to handle inline asm) in r285513 broke the distributed build
case. In a distributed backend we will only have a portion of the
combined index, specifically for imported modules we only have the
summaries for any imported definitions. When renaming on import we were
asserting because no summary entry was found for a local reference being
linked in (def wasn't imported).
We only need to consult the summary for a renaming decision for the
exporting module. For imports, we would have prevented importing any
references to NoRename values already.
