Summary:
Valid section or chunk alignments are powers of 2 in the range [1,
8192]. These can be stored more canonically in log2 form to free up some
bits in Chunk. Combined with D61696, SectionChunk gets 8 bytes smaller.

Change
std::error_code getSectionContents(DataRefImpl, StringRef &) const;
to
Expected<ArrayRef<uint8_t>> getSectionContents(DataRefImpl) const;
Many object formats use ArrayRef<uint8_t> as the underlying type, which
is generally better than StringRef to represent binary data, so change
the type to decrease the number of type conversions.

Summary:
Prior to this change, every implementation of writeTo would add
OutputSectionOff to the output section buffer start before writing data.
Instead, do this math in the caller, so that it can be written once
instead of many times.
The output section offset is always equivalent to the difference between
the chunk RVA and the output section RVA, so we can replace the one
remaining usage of OutputSectionOff with that subtraction.
This doesn't change the size of SectionChunk because of alignment
requirements, but I will rearrange the fields in a follow-up change to
accomplish that.

When using lld-link to build static libraries containing object files
with module assembly, the program would crash with "Assertion `T &&
T->hasMCAsmParser()' failed". This change causes the code in lld-link
that initialized Targets, TargetInfos, and AsmParsers (which already
existed) to be run before entering the lib building path (which needs
it). This avoids the error (and is what llvm-lib and llvm-ar do, too).

SectionChunk is one of the most frequently allocated data structures in
LLD, since there are about four per function when optimizations and
debug info are enabled (.text, .pdata, .xdata, .debug$S).
A PE COFF file cannot be larger than 2GB, so there is an inherent limit
on the length of the section name and the number of relocations.
Decompose the ArrayRef and StringRef into pointer and size, and put them
back together in the accessors for section name and relocation list.
I plan to gather complete performance numbers later by padding
SectionChunk with dead data and measuring performance after all the size
optimizations are done.

r191276 added this to old LLD, but it never made it to new LLD -- except
that the flag was in Options.td, so it was silently ignored. I figured
it should be easy to implement, so I did that instead of removing the
flags from Options.td.
I then discovered that link.exe also supports comma-separated lists of
'cd' and 'net', which made the parsing code a bit annoying.
The Alias technique in Options.td is to get nice help output.

When faced with command line options such as "crtbegin.o appmain.o
-lsomelib crtend.o", GNU ld pulls in all necessary object files from
somelib before proceeding to crtend.o.
LLD operates differently, only loading object files from any
referenced static libraries after processing all input object files.
This uses a similar hack as in the ELF linker. Here, it moves crtend.o
to the end of the vector of object files. This makes sure that
terminator chunks for sections such as .eh_frame gets ordered last,
fixing DWARF exception handling for libgcc and gcc's crtend.o.

We introduce a new class hierarchy for debug types merging (in DebugTypes.h). The end-goal is to parallelize the type merging - please see the plan in D59226.
Previously, dependency discovery was done on the fly, much later, during the type merging loop. Unfortunately, parallelizing the type merging requires the dependencies to be merged in first, before any dependent ObjFile, thus this early discovery.
The overall intention for this path is to discover debug information dependencies at a much earlier stage, when processing input files. Currently, two types of dependency are supported: PDB type servers (when compiling with MSVC /Zi) and precompiled headers OBJs (when compiling with MSVC /Yc and /Yu). Once discovered, an explicit link is added into the dependent ObjFile, through the new debug types class hierarchy introduced in DebugTypes.h.

Summary:
This avoids allocating O(#relocs) of intermediate data for each section
when range extension thunks aren't needed for that section. This also
removes a std::vector from SectionChunk, which further reduces its size.
Instead, this change adds the range extension thunk symbols to the
object files that contain sections that need extension thunks. By adding
them to the symbol table of the parent object, that means they now have
a symbol table index. Then we can then modify the original relocation,
after copying it to read-write memory, to use the new symbol table
index.
This makes linking browser_tests.exe with no PDB 10.46% faster, moving
it from 11.364s to 10.288s averaged over five runs.

This makes lld-link's output a bit more concise. Since most developers can't

well. It also makes lld-link's output consistent with ld.lld's output.
(link.exe prints both demangled and mangled names; lld-link used to match
link.exe output but now no longer does.)
For people working on toolchains, add a `/demangle:no` flag that makes lld-link
print the mangled name instead of the demangled name. (If desired, people could
pipe that through `demumble -b` to get the old behavior of both demangled and
mangled output.)

Turns out nobody understands what "conflicting comdat type" is supposed to
mean, so just emit a regular "duplicate symbol" error and move the comdat
selection information into /verbose output.
This also fixes a problem where the error output would depend on the order of
.obj files passed. Before this patch:
- If passed `one_only.obj discard.obj`, lld-link would only err "conflicting
comdat type"
- If passed `discard.obj one_only.obj`, lld-link would err "conflicting comdat
type" and then "duplicate symbol"
Now lld-link only errs "duplicate symbol" in both cases.
I considered adding a "Detail" parameter to reportDuplicate() that's printed in
parens at the end of the "duplicate symbol" diag if present, and then put the
comdat selection mismatch details there, but since users don't know what it's
supposed to mean decided against it. I also considered special-casing the
Detail message for one_only/discard mismatches, which in practice means
"function defined as inline in TU 1 but as out-of-line in TU 2", but I wasn't
sure how useful it is so I omitted that too.

In a previous patch, I made changes so that PDBs which were
generated on non-Windows platforms contained sensical paths
for the host. While this is an esoteric use case, we need
it to be supported for certain cross compilation scenarios
especially with LLDB, which can debug things on non-Windows
platforms.
However, this regressed a case where you specify /PDBSOURCEPATH
and use a windows-style path. Previously, we would still remove
dots and canonicalize slashes to backslashes, but since my
change intentionally tried to support non-backslash paths, this
was broken.
This patch fixes the situation by trying to guess which path
style the user is specifying when /PDBSOURCEPATH is passed.
It is intentionally conservative, erring on the side of a
Windows path style unless absolutely certain. All dots are
removed and slashes canonicalized to whatever the deduced
path style is after appending the file path to the /PDBSOURCEPATH
argument.

For MinGW, unique partial sections are much more common, e.g.
comdat functions get sections named e.g. text$symbol.
A moderate sized example of this contains over 200K Chunks
which create 174K unique PartialSections. Prior to SVN r352928
(D57574), linking this took around 1,5 seconds for me, while
it afterwards takes around 13 minutes. After this patch, the
linking time is back to what it was before.
The std::find_if in findPartialSection will do a linear scan of
the whole container until a match is found. To use something like
binary_search or the std::set container's own methods, we'd need
to already have a PartialSection*.
