Allow disabling either the full auto import feature, or just
forbidding the cases that require runtime fixups.
As long as all auto imported variables are referenced from separate
.refptr$<name> sections, we can alias them on top of the IAT entries
and don't actually need any runtime fixups via pseudo relocations.
LLVM generates references to variables in .refptr stubs, if it
isn't known that the variable for sure is defined in the same object
module. Runtime pseudo relocs are needed if the addresses of auto
imported variables are used in constant initializers though.
Fixing up runtime pseudo relocations requires the use of
VirtualProtect (which is disallowed in WinStore/UWP apps) or
VirtualProtectFromApp. To allow any risk of ambiguity, allow
rejecting cases that would require this at the linker stage.
This adds support for the --disable-runtime-pseudo-reloc and
--disable-auto-import options in the MinGW driver (matching GNU ld.bfd)
with corresponding lld private options in the COFF driver.

Remove the lld::enableColors function, as it just obscures which
stream it's affecting, and replace with explicit calls to the stream's
enable_colors.
Also, assign the stderrOS and stdoutOS globals first in link function,
just to ensure nothing might use them.
(Either change individually fixes the issue of using the old
stream, but both together seems best.)
Follow-up to b11386f9be.

This change is for those who use lld as a library. Context:
https://reviews.llvm.org/D70287
This patch adds a new parmeter to lld::*::link() so that we can pass
an raw_ostream object representing stdout. Previously, lld::*::link()
took only an stderr object.
Justification for making stdoutOS and stderrOS mandatory: I wanted to
make link() functions to take stdout and stderr in that order.
However, if we change the function signature from
bool link(ArrayRef<const char *> args, bool canExitEarly,
raw_ostream &stderrOS = llvm::errs());
to
bool link(ArrayRef<const char *> args, bool canExitEarly,
raw_ostream &stdoutOS = llvm::outs(),
raw_ostream &stderrOS = llvm::errs());
, then the meaning of existing code that passes stderrOS silently
changes (stderrOS would be interpreted as stdoutOS). So, I chose to
make existing code not to compile, so that developers can fix their
code.

GNU ld looks for a number of other patterns than just lib<name>.dll.a
and lib<name>.a.
GNU ld does support linking directly against a DLL without using an
import library. If that's the only match for a -l argument, point out
that the user needs to use an import library, instead of leaving the
user with a puzzling message about the -l argument not being found
at all.
Also convert an existing case of fatal() into error().

With GNU tools, delayload is handled completely differently. (One
creates a specific delayload import library using dlltool and then
links against it instead of the normal import library.)
Instead of requiring using -Xlink=-delayload:lib.dll, we can provide
an lld specific option for this.

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.)

This fixes an 8-year-old regression. r105763 made it so that aliases
always refer to the unaliased option – but it missed the "joined" branch
of JoinedOrSeparate flags. (r162231 then made the Args classes
non-virtual, and r169344 moved them from clang to llvm.)
Back then, there was no JoinedOrSeparate flag that was an alias, so it
wasn't observable. Now /U in CLCompatOptions is a JoinedOrSeparate alias
in clang, and warn_slash_u_filename incorrectly used the aliased arg id
(using the unaliased one isn't really a regression since that warning
checks if the undefined macro contains slash or backslash and only then
emits the warning – and no valid use will pass "-Ufoo/bar" or similar).
Also, lld has many JoinedOrSeparate aliases, and due to this bug it had
to explicitly call `getUnaliasedOption()` in a bunch of places, even
though that shouldn't be necessary by design. After this fix in Option,
these calls really don't have an effect any more, so remove them.
No intended behavior change.
(I accidentally fixed this bug while working on PR29106 but then
wondered why the warn_slash_u_filename broke. When I figured it out, I
thought it would make sense to land this in a separate commit.)

When integrating PDB output in mingw targeting build systems, it
might be a lot of extra work to specify unique file names for
the pdb output. Therefore allow omitting the actual file name
and let it implicitly be the same name as the linker output, with
a pdb extension.
As the current form of the pdb option takes a separate parameter value,
e.g. "-pdb out.pdb", it is impractical to leave out the parameter value.
Therefore, introduce a second syntax for the option, with an equals
sign, like -pdb=out.pdb, where the value easily can be omitted.
The form -pdb= for requesting pdb files with an implicit name should
work fine, even though it looks a bit unconventional in that form.

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.

LLD already writes a build id if debug info is enabled.
Some projects set --pie-executable to avoid GNU ld bugs about stripping
base relocations from an executable when they actually are used.
Since -fixed:no is the default (and we don't support setting the
