Changes :-
a) Functionality in InputGraph to insert Input elements at any position
b) Functionality in the Resolver to use nextFile
c) Move the functionality of assigning file ordinals to InputGraph
d) Changes all inputs to MemoryBuffers
e) Remove LinkerInput, InputFiles, ReaderArchive

In COFF, an undefined symbol can have up to one alternative name. If a symbol
is resolved by its regular name, then it's linked normally. If a symbol is not
found in any input files, all references to the regular name are resolved using
the alternative name. If the alternative name is not found, it's a link error.
This mechanism is called "weak externals".
To support this mechanism, I added a new member function fallback() to undefined
atom. If an undefined atom has the second name, fallback() returns a new undefined
atom that should be used instead of the original one to resolve undefines. If it
does not have the second name, the function returns nullptr.

BSS atoms dont take any file space in the Input file. They are associated
with a contentType(typeZeroFill). Similiar zero fill types also exist which
have the same meaning in terms of occupying file space in the Input.
These atoms have to be handled seperately when writing to the
lld's intermediate file or the lld test infrastructure.
Also adds a test.

Also change some local variable names: "ti" -> "context" and
"_targetInfo" -> "_context".

Architecture specific code should reside in architecture specific directory
not in Atom. Looks like there are no efforts being made at this moment to
support ARM, so let's remove it for now.

The major changes are:
1) LinkerOptions has been merged into TargetInfo
2) LinkerInvocation has been merged into Driver
3) Drivers no longer convert arguments into an intermediate (core) argument
list, but instead create a TargetInfo object and call setter methods on
it. This is only how in-process linking would work. That is, you can
programmatically set up a TargetInfo object which controls the linking.
4) Lots of tweaks to test suite to work with driver changes
5) Add the DarwinDriver
6) I heavily doxygen commented TargetInfo.h
Things to do after this patch is committed:
a) Consider renaming TargetInfo, given its new roll.
b) Consider pulling the list of input files out of TargetInfo. This will
enable in-process clients to create one TargetInfo the re-use it with
different input file lists.
c) Work out a way for Drivers to format the warnings and error done in
core linking.

I really would have liked to split this patch up, but it would greatly
complicate the lld-core and lld drivers having to deal with both
{Reader,Writer}Option and TargetInfo.

now Reader and Writer subclasses for each file format. Each Reader and
Writer subclass defines an "options" class which controls how that Reader
or Writer operates.
