Resolver is sending too much information to Input Graph than Input
Graph actually needs. In order to collect the detailed information,
which wouldn't be consumed by anyone, we have a good amount of code
in Resolver, Input Graph and Input Elements. This patch is to
simplify it. No functionality change.
Specifically, this patch replaces ResolverState enum with a boolean
value. The enum defines many bits to notify the progress about
linking to Input Graph using bit masks, however, what Input Graph
actually does is to compare a given value with 0. The details of
the bit mask is simply being ignored, so the efforts to collect
such data is wasted.
This patch also changes the name of the notification interface from
setResolverState to notifyProgress, to make it sounds more like
message passing style. It's not a setter but something to notify of
an update, so the new name should be more appropriate than before.

LinkingContext and InputGraph are unnecessarily entangled. Most linker
input file data, e.g. the vector containing input files, the next index
of the input file, etc. are managed by InputGraph, but only the current
input file is for no obvious reason managed by LinkingContext.
This patch is to move code from LinkingContext to InputGraph to fix it.
It's now clear who's reponsible for managing input file state, which is
InputGraph, and LinkingContext is now free from that responsibility.
It improves the readability as we now have fewer dependencies between
classes. No functionality change.

InputGraph has too many knobs and controls that are not being used. This
patch is to remove dead code, unused features and a class. There are two
things that worth noting, besides simple dead code removal:
1. ControlNode class is removed. We had it as the base class of Group
class, but it provides no functionality particularly meaningful. We now
have shallower class hierarchy that is easier to understand.
2. InputGraph provides a feature to replace a node with its internal data.
It is being used to "expand" some type of node, such as a Linker Script
node, with its actual files. We used to have two options when replacing
it -- ExpandOnly or ExpandAndReplace. ExpandOnly was to expand it but not
remove the node from the tree. There is no use of that option in the code,
so it was a dead feature.

Asserting with cast<T> did not actually make much sense because there was no
need to use dynamic casting in the first place. We could make the compiler to
statically type check these objects.

cast<X> asserts the type is correct and does not return null on failure.
So we should use cast<X> rather than dyn_cast<X> at such places where we
don't expect type conversion could fail.

Some Clang build uses .imp not .lib file extension for an import library file,
so we need to treat such file as a library file.
Ideally we should not rely on file extensions to detect file type. Instead
we should use magic bytes at beginning of a file. The GNU-compatible driver
actually does that but it made writing unit tests hard, so I chose an ad-hoc
approach for now.

.gnu.linkonce sections are similar to section groups.
They were supported before section groups existed and provided a way
to resolve COMDAT sections using a different design.
There are few implementations that use .gnu.linkonce sections
to store simple floating point constants which doesnot require complex section
group support but need a way to store only one copy of the floating point
constant in a binary.
.gnu.linkonce based symbol resolution achieves that.

On these tests llvm-mc will convert got relocations with a symbol to section
relocations. This is invalid, since the relocation doesn't reference the symbol
itself, so its offset in a section in irrelevant.
Given the object files, these are still valid lld tests, so just run the
tests directly on the binaries.
Found by running check-lld after fixing the relocation handling in llvm-mc.

This patch is to support --defsym option for ELF file format/GNU-compatible
driver. Currently it takes a symbol name followed by '=' and a number. If such
option is given, the driver sets up an absolute symbol with the specified
address. You can specify multiple --defsym options to define multiple symbols.
GNU LD's --defsym provides many more features. For example, it allows users to
specify another symbol name instead of a number to define a symbol alias, or it
even allows a symbol plus an offset (e.g. --defsym=foo+3) to define symbol-
relative alias. This patch does not support that, but will be supported in
subsequent patches.

Currently we use both layout-after and layout-before edges to specify atom
orders in the resulting executable. We have a complex piece of code in
LayoutPass.cpp to deal with both types of layout specifiers.
(In the following description, I denote "Atom A having a layout-after edge
to B" as "A -> B", and A's layout-before to B as "A => B".)
However, that complexity is not really needed for this reason: If there
are atoms such that A => B, B -> A is always satisifed, so using only layout-
after relationships will yield the same result as the current code.
Actually we have a piece of complex code that verifies that, for each A -> B,
B => [ X => Y => ... => Z => ] A is satsified, where X, Y, ... Z are all
zero-size atoms. We can get rid of the code from our codebase because layout-
before is basically redundant.
I think we can simplify the code for layout-after even more than this, but
I want to just remove this pass for now for simplicity.
Layout-before edges are still there for dead-stripping, so this change won't
break it. We will remove layout-before in a followup patch once we fix the
dead-stripping pass.

Use <mutex> instead of "llvm/Support/Mutex.h".
Also change the type of mutex for the context object to recursive mutex, as
the driver could acquire the lock recursively. E.g. If file A has .drectve
section containing /defaultlib:B, the driver tries to parse file B, and if
file B has .drectve section, the driver acquires the lock again.

RoundTripYAML pass is removed from the regular execution pass in r204296,
so the safeguard to protect it from OOM error is no longer needed, because
we are sure that the pass is only used for tests, and test files are all
small.
We also want to see RoundTripYAML pass to fail in tests if it fails,
rather than silently skipping failing tests.

If the environment variable is defined and not empty, RoundTrip tests

InputElement::parse() may recursively call WinLinkDriver::parse() to handle
.drectve section contents, and if /defaultlib option exists in the section,
the driver will mutate the input graph to add a new input file to the graph.

LLD fails to link symbol "_main" if the symbol is in a library file and
the library file is given as a bare argument (i.e. not with /defaultlib
option). It's because library files given as bare arguments are processed
before other libraries given with /defaultlib, so when Linker finds msvcrtd
needs a definition for "_main", the file providing the main function has
already been processed and skipped. Linker don't revisit libraries if it's
not given with /defaultlib.
To fix it this patch change the way of command line handling; files end with
".lib" are treated as if they are given with /defaultlib. I don't believe
it's 100% correct behavior but it's better than before.

COMDAT_SELECT_SAME_SIZE is a COMDAT type that I presume exist only in COFF.
The semantics of the type is that linker should merge such COMDAT sections if
