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.

Previously, we uncompress all compressed sections before doing anything.
That works, and that is conceptually simple, but that could results in
a waste of CPU time and memory if uncompressed sections are then
discarded or just copied to the output buffer.
In particular, if .debug_gnu_pub{names,types} are compressed and if no
-gdb-index option is given, we wasted CPU and memory because we
uncompress them into newly allocated bufers and then memcpy the buffers
to the output buffer. That temporary buffer was redundant.
This patch changes how to uncompress sections. Now, compressed sections
are uncompressed lazily. To do that, `Data` member of `InputSectionBase`
is now hidden from outside, and `data()` accessor automatically expands
an compressed buffer if necessary.
If no one calls `data()`, then `writeTo()` directly uncompresses
compressed data into the output buffer. That eliminates the redundant
memory allocation and redundant memcpy.
This patch significantly reduces memory consumption (20 GiB max RSS to
15 Gib) for an executable whose .debug_gnu_pub{names,types} are in total
5 GiB in an uncompressed form.

This should resolve the issue that lld build fails in some hosts
that uses case-insensitive file system.

The profailing style in lld seem to be to not include such empty lines.
Clang-tidy/clang-format seem to handle this just fine.

Summary:
The COFF linker and the ELF linker have long had similar but separate
Error.h and Error.cpp files to implement error handling. This change
introduces new error handling code in Common/ErrorHandler.h, changes the
COFF and ELF linkers to use it, and removes the old, separate
implementations.

EhSectionPiece used to have a pointer to a section, but that pointer was
mostly redundant because we almost always know what the section is without
using that pointer. This patch removes the pointer from the struct.
This patch also use uint32_t/int32_t instead of size_t to represent
offsets that are hardly be larger than 4 GiB. At the moment, I think it is
OK even if we cannot handle .eh_frame sections larger than 4 GiB.

This creates a new library called BinaryFormat that has all of
the headers from llvm/Support containing structure and layout
definitions for various types of binary formats like dwarf, coff,
elf, etc as well as the code for identifying a file from its
magic.

We had a few Config member functions that returns configuration values.
For example, we had is64() which returns true if the target is 64-bit.
The return values of these functions are constant and never change.
This patch is to compute them only once to make it clear that they'll
never change.

The function was used only within Relocations.cpp, but now we are
using it in many places, so this patch moves it to a file that fits
to the functionality.

"A zero length string indicates that no augmentation data is present."
The FreeBSD/mips toolchain (GCC 4.2.1) generates .debug_frame sections
containing CIE records that have an empty augmentation string.
