to reflect the new license.
We understand that people may be surprised that we're moving the header
entirely to discuss the new license. We checked this carefully with the
Foundation's lawyer and we believe this is the correct approach.
Essentially, all code in the project is now made available by the LLVM
project under our new license, so you will see that the license headers
include that license only. Some of our contributors have contributed
code under our old license, and accordingly, we have retained a copy of
our old license notice in the top-level files in each project and
repository.

This abstracts away the file descriptor related logic which makes it
easier to port XRay to platform that don't use file descriptors or
file system for writing the log data, such as Fuchsia.

Summary:
This change simplifies the XRay Allocator implementation to self-manage
an mmap'ed memory segment instead of using the internal allocator
implementation in sanitizer_common.
We've found through benchmarks and profiling these benchmarks in D48879
that using the internal allocator in sanitizer_common introduces a
bottleneck on allocating memory through a central spinlock. This change
allows thread-local allocators to eliminate contention on the
centralized allocator.
To get the most benefit from this approach, we also use a managed
allocator for the chunk elements used by the segmented array
implementation. This gives us the chance to amortize the cost of
allocating memory when creating these internal segmented array data
structures.
We also took the opportunity to remove the preallocation argument from
the allocator API, simplifying the usage of the allocator throughout the
profiling implementation.
In this change we also tweak some of the flag values to reduce the
amount of maximum memory we use/need for each thread, when requesting
memory through mmap.
Depends on D48956.

Changes:
- Remove static assertion on size of a structure, fails on systems where
pointers aren't 8 bytes.
- Use size_t instead of deducing type of arguments to
`nearest_boundary`.
Follow-up to D48653.

Summary:
We found a bug while working on a benchmark for the profiling mode which
manifests as a segmentation fault in the profiling handler's
implementation. This change adds unit tests which replicate the
issues in isolation.
We've tracked this down as a bug in the implementation of the Freelist
in the `xray::Array` type. This happens when we trim the array by a
number of elements, where we've been incorrectly assigning pointers for
the links in the freelist of chunk nodes. We've taken the chance to add
more debug-only assertions to the code path and allow us to verify these
assumptions in debug builds.
In the process, we also took the opportunity to use iterators to
implement both `front()` and `back()` which exposes a bug in the
iterator decrement operation. In particular, when we decrement past a
chunk size boundary, we end up moving too far back and reaching the
`SentinelChunk` prematurely.
This change unblocks us to allow for contributing the non-crashing
version of the benchmarks in the test-suite as well.

This change uses 'const' for the retryingWriteAll(...) API and removes
unnecessary 'static' local variables in getting the temporary filename.

The implementation, however, is in different arch-specific files, unless it's emulated.

As pointed out in casual reading of the XRay codebase, that we had
some interesting named functions that didn't quite follow the LLVM coding
conventions.

Summary:
In this change we introduce the notion of a "flight data recorder" mode
for XRay logging, where XRay logs in-memory first, and write out data
on-demand as required (as opposed to the naive implementation that keeps
logging while tracing is "on"). This depends on D26232 where we
implement the core data structure for holding the buffers that threads
will be using to write out records of operation.
This implementation only currently works on x86_64 and depends heavily
on the TSC math to write out smaller records to the inmemory buffers.
Also, this implementation defines two different kinds of records with
different sizes (compared to the current naive implementation): a
MetadataRecord (16 bytes) and a FunctionRecord (8 bytes). MetadataRecord
entries are meant to write out information like the thread ID for which
the metadata record is defined for, whether the execution of a thread
moved to a different CPU, etc. while a FunctionRecord represents the
different kinds of function call entry/exit records we might encounter
in the course of a thread's execution along with a delta from the last
time the logging handler was called.
While this implementation is not exactly what is described in the
original XRay whitepaper, this one gives us an initial implementation
that we can iterate and build upon.
