Dehao Chen a60cdd3881 Add function importing info from samplepgo profile to the module summary.
Summary: For SamplePGO, the profile may contain cross-module inline stacks. As we need to make sure the profile annotation happens when all the hot inline stacks are expanded, we need to pass this info to the module importer so that it can import proper functions if necessary. This patch implemented this feature by emitting cross-module targets as part of function entry metadata. In the module-summary phase, the metadata is used to build call edges that points to functions need to be imported.

Aaron Ballman b930c84368 This code block breaks the docs build (http://lab.llvm.org:8011/builders/llvm-sphinx-docs/builds/11925/steps/docs-llvm-html/logs/stdio). Setting the code highlighting to none instead of llvm.

Diego Novillo 2567f3d0fb Add function entry count metadata.
Summary:
This adds three Function methods to handle function entry counts:
setEntryCount() and getEntryCount().

Entry counts are stored under the MD_prof metadata node with the name
"function_entry_count". They are unsigned 64 bit values set by profilers
(instrumentation and sample profiler changes coming up).

Added documentation for new profile metadata and tests.

Sean Silva 92a44897a2 docs: Fix long standing linking antipattern.
Before we learned about :doc:, we used :ref: and put a dummy link at the
top of each page. Don't do that anymore.

This fixes PR14891 as a special case.
