Summary:
Our YAML library's handling of tags isn't perfect, but it is good enough to get rid of the need for the --format argument to yaml2obj. This patch does exactly that.
Instead of requiring --format, it infers the format based on the tags found in the object file. The supported tags are:
!ELF
!COFF
!mach-o
!fat-mach-o
I have a corresponding patch that is quite large that fixes up all the in-tree test cases.

The IO normalizer would essentially lump I386 and AMD64 relocations
together. Relocation types with the same numeric value would then get
mapped in appropriately.
For example:
IMAGE_REL_AMD64_ADDR64 and IMAGE_REL_I386_DIR16 both have a numeric
value of one. We would see IMAGE_REL_I386_DIR16 in obj2yaml conversions
of object files with a machine type of IMAGE_FILE_MACHINE_AMD64.

The current state of affairs has auxiliary symbols described as a big
bag of bytes. This is less than satisfying, it detracts from the YAML
file as being human readable.
Instead, allow for symbols to optionally contain their auxiliary data.
This allows us to have a much higher level way of describing things like
weak symbols, function definitions and section definitions.
This depends on D3105.

The alignment is just a byte in the middle of Characteristics, not an
independent flag. Making it an independent field in the yaml
representation makes it more yamlio friendly.
