The combination of the two flags doesn't make sense. And other linkers
seem to just ignore --export-dynamic if --relocatable is given, but
we probably should report it as an error to let users know that is
an invalid combination.

Since OPT_UNKNOWN args never have any values and consist only of
spelling (and are never aliased), this doesn't make any difference in
practice, but it's more consistent with Arg's guidance to use
getAsString() for diagnostics, and it matches what clang does.
Also tweak two tests to use an unknown option that contains '=' for
additional coverage while here. (The new tests pass fine with the old
code too though.)

For lld-link, unknown '/'-style flags are treated as filenames on POSIX
systems, so only '-'-style flags get typo correction for now. This
matches clang-cl.

Previously, we validated -z options after we process --version or --help flags.
So, if one of these flags is given, we wouldn't show an "unknown -z option"
error. This patch fixes that behavior.

This is https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=39289.
Currently both gold and bfd report errors about invalid options values
even with -v/-versions. But LLD does not.
This makes complicated to check the options available when LLD is used.
Patch makes LLD behavior to be consistent with GNU linkers.

Previously, lld exited with an error status if the only option given to
the command was -v. GNU linkers gracefully exit in that case. This patch
makes lld behave like GNU.
Note that even with this patch, lld's -v and --version options behave
slightly differently than GNU linkers' counterparts. For example,
if you run `ld.bfd -v -v`, the version string is printed out twice.
But that is an edge case that I don't think we need to take care of.

Patch from James Henderson.
If a user has a long link, e.g. due to a large LTO link, they do not
wish to run it and find that it failed because there was a mistake in
their command-line, after they waited for some significant amount of
time. This change adds some basic checking of the linker output file
path, which is run shortly after parsing the command-line and linker
script. An error is emitted if LLD cannot write to the specified path.

GNU linkers disagree here.
Though both -version and -v are mentioned
in help to print the version information, GNU ld just normally exits,
while gold can continue linking. We are compatible with ld.bfd here.

Usually, options that are longer than one character can be preceded
either by "-" or "--", but options starting with "o" are exceptions
because they conflict with "-o" option. They have to be preceded by
"--".

--pic-executable
Create a position independent executable. This is currently only
supported on ELF platforms. Position independent executables are
similar to shared libraries in that they are relocated by the
dynamic linker to the virtual address the OS chooses for them
(which can vary between invocations). Like normal dynamically
linked executables they can be executed and symbols defined in the
executable cannot be overridden by shared libraries.

That is directly opposite to http://reviews.llvm.org/D18045,

This patch changes all messages to start from lowercase letter if

[ELF] - Consistent spelling for error/warning messages
Previously error and warnings were not consistent in lld.
Some of them started from lowercase letter, others from
uppercase. Also there was one or two which had a dot at the end.

It can fail to open an output file for various reasons, including
lack of permission, too long filename, or the output file is not
