Before this patch, the debug record S_GTHREAD32 which represents global thread_local symbols, was emitted by LLD into the respective module stream. This makes Visual Studio unable to display thread_local symbols in the debugger.
After this patch, S_GTHREAD32 is moved into the globals stream. This matches MSVC behavior.

A linker will create .ARM.exidx sections for InputSections that don't
have them. This can cause a relocation out of range error If the
InputSection happens to be extremely far away from the other sections.
This is often the case for the vector table on older ARM CPUs as the only
two places that the table can be placed is 0 or 0xffff0000. We fix this
by removing InputSections that need a linker generated .ARM.exidx
section if that would cause an error.

Summary:
That unless the user requested an output object (--lto-obj-path), the an
unused empty combined module is not emitted.
This changed is helpful for some target (ex. RISCV-V) which encoded the
ABI info in IR module flags (target-abi). Empty unused module has no ABI
info so the linker would get the linking error during merging
incompatible ABIs.

Sections with the SHF_LINK_ORDER flag must be ordered in the same relative
order as the Sections they have a link to. When using a linker script an
arbitrary expression may be used for the virtual address of the
OutputSection. In some cases the virtual address does not monotonically
increase as the OutputSection index increases, so if we base the ordering
of the SHF_LINK_ORDER sections on the index then we can get the order
wrong. We fix this by moving SHF_LINK_ORDER resolution till after we have
created OutputSection virtual addresses.

This patch checks the presence of R_PPC64_TOC16_LO and suppresses

This is primarily motivated by the desire to move from Python2 to
Python3. `PYTHON_EXECUTABLE` is ambiguous. This explicitly identifies
the python interpreter in use. Since the LLVM build seems to be able to
completed successfully with python3, use that across the build. The old
path aliases `PYTHON_EXECUTABLE` to be treated as Python3.
GNU tools generate mapping symbols "$d" for .ARM.exidx sections. The
symbols are added to the symbol table much earlier than the merging
takes place, and after that, they become dangling. Before the patch,
LLD output those symbols as SHN_ABS with the value of 0. The patch
removes such symbols from the symbol table.

Previously, the special segments `__PAGEZERO` and `__LINKEDIT` were
implemented as special LoadCommands. This diff implements them using
special sections instead which have an `isHidden()` attribute. We do not
emit section headers for hidden sections, but we use their addresses and
file offsets to determine that of their containing segments. In addition
to allowing us to share more segment-related code, this refactor is also
important for the next step of emitting dylibs:
1) dylibs don't have segments like __PAGEZERO, so we need an easy way of
omitting them w/o messing up segment indices
2) Unlike the kernel, which is happy to run an executable with
out-of-order segments, dyld requires dylibs to have their segment
load commands arranged in increasing address order. The refactor
makes it easier to implement sorting of sections and segments.

Summary: The switch --plugin-opt=emit-asm can be used with the gold linker to dump the final assembly code generated by LTO in a user-friendly way. Unfortunately it doesn't work with lld. I'm hooking it up with lld. With that switch, lld emits assembly code into the output file (specified by -o) and if there are multiple input files, each of their assembly code will be emitted into a separate file named by suffixing the output file name with a unique number, respectively. The linking then stops after generating those assembly files.

When discarding local symbols with --discard-all or --discard-locals,
the ones which are used in relocations should be preserved. LLD used

The patch implements handling the --discard-* switches for the cases
when relocations are kept by identifying used local symbols and allowing
removing only unused ones. This makes the behavior of LLD compatible

The contents of the .ARM.exidx section must be ordered by SHF_LINK_ORDER
rules. We don't need to know the precise address for this order, but we
do need to know the relative order of sections. We have been using the
sectionIndex for this purpose, this works when the OutputSection order
has a monotonically increasing virtual address, but it is possible to
write a linker script with non-monotonically increasing virtual address.
For these cases we need to evaluate the base address of the OutputSection
so that we can order the .ARM.exidx sections properly.
This change moves the finalisation of .ARM.exidx till after the first
call to AssignAddresses. This permits us to sort on virtual address which
is linker script safe. It also permits a fix for part of pr44824 where
we generate .ARM.exidx section for the vector table when that table is so
far away it is out of range of the .ARM.exidx section. This fix will come
in a follow up patch.

Time profiler emits relative timestamps for events (the number of
microseconds passed since the start of the current process).
This patch allows combining events from different processes while
preserving their relative timing by emitting a new attribute
"beginningOfTime". This attribute contains the system time that
corresponds to the zero timestamp of the time profiler.
This has at least two use cases:
- Build systems can use this to merge time traces from multiple compiler
invocations and generate statistics for the whole build. Tools like
ClangBuildAnalyzer could also leverage this feature.
- Compilers that use LLVM as their backend by invoking llc/opt in
a child process. If such a compiler supports generating time traces
of its own events, it could merge those events with LLVM-specific
events received from llc/opt, and produce a more complete time trace.

For a relative path in INPUT() or GROUP(), this patch changes the search order by adding the directory of the current linker script.
The new search order (consistent with GNU ld >= 2.35 regarding the new test `test/ELF/input-relative.s`):
1. the directory of the current linker script (GNU ld from Binutils 2.35 onwards; https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=25806)
2. the current working directory
3. library paths (-L)
This behavior makes it convenient to replace a .so or .a with a linker script with additional input. For example, glibc
```
% cat /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libm.a
/* GNU ld script
*/
OUTPUT_FORMAT(elf64-x86-64)
GROUP ( /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libm-2.29.a /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libmvec.a )
```
could be simplified as `GROUP(libm-2.29.a libmvec.a)`.
Another example is to make libc++.a a linker script:
```
INPUT(libc++.a.1 libc++abi.a)
```
Note, -l is not affected.
