Summary:
This improves unwind performance quite substantially, and follows
a somewhat similar approach used in libgcc_s as described in the
thread here:
https://gcc.gnu.org/ml/gcc/2005-02/msg00625.html
On certain extremely exception heavy internal tests, the time
drops from about 80 minutes to about five minutes.

parseInstructions() doesn't always process the whole set of DWARF
instructions for a frame. It will stop once the target PC is reached, or
if malformed instructions are found. So, for example, if we have an
instruction sequence like this:
```
<start>
...
DW_CFA_remember_state
...
DW_CFA_advance_loc past the location we're unwinding at (pcoffset in parseInstructions() main loop)
...
DW_CFA_restore_state
<end>
```
... the saved state will never be freed, even though the
DW_CFA_remember_state opcode has a matching DW_CFA_restore_state later
in the sequence.
This change adds code to free whatever is left on rememberStack after
parsing the CIE and the FDE instructions.

The original commit set `CMAKE_TRY_COMPILE_TARGET_TYPE` to
`STATIC_LIBRARY` globally in libunwind/CMakeLists.txt, which effectively
disabled the linking step in CMake checks.
This broke some builds (see 938c70b86c).
Here we set CMAKE_TRY_COMPILE_TARGET_TYPE to
STATIC_LIBRARY only when checking for presence of the `-funwind-tables`
flag, and then set it back to the original value so it doesn't affect
other checks.

This reverts commit b3fdf33ba6.
This change broke building libunwind for Windows/MinGW, and broke
on aspect of the CMake tests in libunwind in general.
After set(CMAKE_TRY_COMPILE_TARGET_TYPE STATIC_LIBRARY), CMake
skips the linking step in tests, but cmake/config-ix.cmake also
does a few checks for functions in libraries (looking for whether
-lc provides fopen and whether -ldl provides dladdr).
As CMake only tests building a static library, these tests
incorrectly succeed and CMake concludes "Looking for fopen in c -
found" and "Looking for dladdr in dl - found", while building
then fails at the end with errors about unable to find -lc and -ldl.
Summary:
Or, rather, don't accidentally forget to pass it.
This is aimed to solve the problem discussed in [this thread](http://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/llvm-dev/2019-November/136890.html), and to fix [a year-old bug](https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=38468).
TL;DR: when building libunwind for ARM Linux, we **need** libunwind to be built with the `-funwind-tables` flag, because, well ARM EHABI needs unwind info produced by this flag. Without the flag all the procedures in libunwind are marked `.cantunwind`, which causes all sorts of bad things. From `_Unwind_Backtrace` not working, to C++ exceptions not being caught (which is the aforementioned bug is about).
Previously, this flag was not added because the CMake check `add_compile_flags_if_supported(-funwind-tables)` produced a false negative. Why? With this flag, the compiler generates calls to the `__aeabi_unwind_cpp_pr0` symbol, which is defined in libunwind itself and obviously is not available at configure time, before libunwind is built. This led to failure at link time during the CMake check. We handle this by disabling the linker for CMake checks in linbunwind.
Also, this patch introduces a lit feature `libunwind-arm-ehabi`, which is used to mark the `signal_frame.pass.cpp` test as unsupported (as was advised by @miyuki in D70397).

Summary:
This patch adjusts the signal_frame.pass.cpp to pass on Arm targets:
* When Arm EHABI is used the unwinder does not use DWARF, hence the
DWARF-specific check unw_is_signal_frame() must be disabled.
* Certain C libraries don't include EH tables, so the unwinder must
not try to step out of main(). The patch moves the test code out of
main() into a separate function to avoid this.

A "signal frame" is a function or block of code where execution arrives via a signal or interrupt, rather than via a normal call instruction. In fact, a particular instruction is interrupted by the signal and needs to be restarted. Therefore, when the signal handler is complete, execution needs to return to the interrupted instruction, rather than the instruction immediately following the call instruction, as in a normal call.
Stack unwinders need to know this to correctly unwind signal frames. Dwarf handily provides an "S" in the CIE augmentation string to describe this case, and the libunwind API provides various functions to for unwinders to determine it,.
The llvm libunwind implementation correctly sets it's internal variable "isSignalFrame" when initializing an unwind context. However, upon stepping up the stack, the current implementation correctly reads the augmentation string and sets it in the CIE info (which it then discards), libunwind doesn't update it's internal unwind context data structure.
This change fixes that, and provides compatibility with both the canonical libunwind and the libgcc implementation.

ARM EHABI unwinding tables only store the start address of each function, so the
last function is assumed to cover the entire address space after it. The test
picks an address on the stack assuming that it's in no function, but because of
the above it's actually resolved to the last function. Fix this by using address
0 instead.

If unwind info is not available at the current IP, unw_get_proc_info should
return a zero-filled structure rather than the info of the previous IP.
This change also makes unw_get_proc_info return UNW_ENOINFO instead of
UNW_ESUCCESS.

Fix two issues that caused libcxx source path not to be inferred
correctly when not specified explicitly:
1. get_lit_conf() uses default value only if the lit variable is set
to None. Due to the mehod of substituting lit.site.cfg, they were
"" rather than None when unset, effectively causing the default never
to apply. Instead, use 'or' construct to use the default whenever
get_lit_conf() returns a false value.
2. If os.path.join() is given a component starting with '/', it takes
it to be an absolute path and ignores everything preceding it.
Remove the slash to correctly append subdirectory.
With these two fixes, libunwind tests start working on NetBSD buildbot
again.

This change makes each unwind step inspect the instruction at the
return address and, if needed, read r2 from its saved location and
modify the context appropriately.
The unwind logic is able to handle both ELFv1 and ELFv2 stacks.

We're building tests with -nostdlib which means that we need to
explicitly include the builtins library. When using libgcc (default)
we can simply include -lgcc_s on the link line, but when using
compiler-rt builtins we need a complete path to the builtins library.
This path is already available in CMake as <PROJECT>_BUILTINS_LIBRARY,
so we just need to pass that path to lit and if config.compiler_rt is
true, link it to the test.
Prior to this patch, running tests when compiler-rt is being used as
the builtins library was broken as all tests would fail to link, but
with this change running tests when compiler-rt bultins library is
being used should be supported.

There are several changes:
- Don't stringify Pythonized bools (that's why we're Pythonizing them)
- Support specifying target and sysroot via CMake variables
- Use consistent spelling for --target, --sysroot, --gcc-toolchain
llvm-svn: 353137
CMake has a standard way of setting target triple, sysroot and external
toolchain through CMAKE_<LANG>_COMPILER_TARGET, CMAKE_SYSROOT and
CMAKE_<LANG>_COMPILER_EXTERNAL_TOOLCHAIN. These are turned into
corresponding --target=, --sysroot= and --gcc-toolchain= variables add
included appended to CMAKE_<LANG>_FLAGS.
libunwind, libc++abi, libc++ provides their own mechanism through
<PROJECT>_TARGET_TRIPLE, <PROJECT>_SYSROOT and <PROJECT>_GCC_TOOLCHAIN
variables. These are also passed to lit via lit.site.cfg, and lit config
uses these to set the corresponding compiler flags when building tessts.
This means that there are two different ways of setting target, sysroot
and toolchain, but only one is properly supported in lit. This change
extends CMake build for libunwind, libc++abi and libc++ to also support
the CMake variables in addition to project specific ones in lit.

to reflect the new license. These used slightly different spellings that
defeated my regular expressions.
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.

For many targets setting -fno-exceptions will prevent unwinding tables from
being generated for the test programs. As libunwind depends on the tables to
unwind the stack several tests will fail.
This change always adds -funwind-tables so that even when -fno-exceptions
is set unwind tables are generated.

unw_getcontext() should return UNW_ESUCCESS on success. Therefore, the
assembly for AArch64 is incorrect because "ldr x0, #0" is a PC-relative

This commit fixes the unw_step() for ARM EHABI. However, this commit
also changes the implementation details for ARM EHABI.
The first change is that the personality function should call
__gnu_unwind_frame() for default (or de facto) frame unwinding based on
the ARM-defined unwind opcode. The function __gnu_unwind_frame() will
in turn calls unw_step() which actually unwinds the frame.
The second change is that the implementation _Unwind_Backtrace() should
no longer calls unw_step() to unwind the frame; since according to ARM
EHABI, the personality function should unwind the frame for us.
Special thanks to Anton for helpful suggestion on the initial version of
this patch.

This moves the majority of the unwind sources into the new project layout for
libunwind. This was previously discussed on llvmdev at [1]. This is a
