lib.exe by default exits successfully without writing an output
file when no inputs are passed. llvm-lib has the same behavior,
for compatibility.
This behavior interacts poorly with build systems: If a static
library target had no inputs, llvm-lib would not produce an output
file, causing ninja (or make, or a similar system) to successfully
run that step, but then re-run it on the next build.
After this patch, llvm-lib emits a warning in this case, that with
/WX can be turned into an error. That way, ninja (or make, or...)
will mark the initial build as failed.
People who don't like the warning can use /ignore:emptyoutput to
suppress it.
The warning also points out the existing flag /llvmlibempty which
forces creation of an empty .lib file (this is an extension to lib.exe).

If linking directly against a DLL without an import library, the
DLL export symbols might not contain stdcall decorations.
If we have an undefined symbol with decoration, and we happen to have
a matching undecorated symbol (which either is lazy and can be loaded,
or already defined), then alias it against that instead.
This matches what's done in reverse, when we have a def file
declaring to export a symbol without decoration, but we only have
a defined decorated symbol. In that case we do a fuzzy match
(SymbolTable::findMangle). This case is more straightforward; if we
have a decorated undefined symbol, just strip the decoration and look
for the corresponding undecorated symbol name.
Add warnings and options for either silencing the warning or disabling
the whole feature, corresponding to how ld.bfd does it.
(This feature works for any symbol decoration mismatch, not only when
linking against a DLL directly; ld.bfd also tolerates it anywhere,
and also fixes up mismatches in the other direction, like
SymbolTable::findMangle, for any symbol, not only exports. But in
practice, at least for lld, it would primarily end up used for linking
against DLLs.)

Also sync help texts for the option between elf and coff ports.
Decisions:
- Do this even if /lldignoreenv is passed. /reproduce: does not affect

(On the other hand, it's now possible to set this env var and forget
about it, and all future builds in the same shell will be much slower.
That's true for ld.lld, but posix shells have an easy way to set an
env var for a single command; in cmd.exe this is not possible without
contortions. Then again, lld-link runs in posix shells too.)

Previously this flag was just ignored. If set, set the
IMAGE_DLL_CHARACTERISTICS_NO_SEH bit, regardless of the normal safeSEH

In mingw configurations, the safeSEH bit might not be set in e.g. object
files built from handwritten assembly, making it impossible to use the
normal safeseh flag. As mingw setups don't generally use SEH on 32 bit
x86 at all, it should be fine to set that flag bit though - hook up

Allow disabling either the full auto import feature, or just
forbidding the cases that require runtime fixups.
As long as all auto imported variables are referenced from separate
.refptr$<name> sections, we can alias them on top of the IAT entries
and don't actually need any runtime fixups via pseudo relocations.
LLVM generates references to variables in .refptr stubs, if it
isn't known that the variable for sure is defined in the same object
module. Runtime pseudo relocs are needed if the addresses of auto
imported variables are used in constant initializers though.
Fixing up runtime pseudo relocations requires the use of
VirtualProtect (which is disallowed in WinStore/UWP apps) or
VirtualProtectFromApp. To allow any risk of ambiguity, allow
rejecting cases that would require this at the linker stage.
This adds support for the --disable-runtime-pseudo-reloc and
--disable-auto-import options in the MinGW driver (matching GNU ld.bfd)
with corresponding lld private options in the COFF driver.

Summary:
/PDBSTREAM:<name>=<file> adds the contents of <file> to stream <name> in the resulting PDB.
This allows native uses with workflows that (for example) add srcsrv streams to PDB files to provide a location for the build's source files.
Results should be equivalent to linking with lld-link, then running Microsoft's pdbstr tool with the command line:
pdbstr.exe -w -p:<PDB LOCATION> -s:<name> -i:<file>
except in cases where the named stream overlaps with a default named stream, such as "/names". In those cases, the added stream will be overridden, making the /pdbstream option a no-op.

--no-threads is a name copied from gold.
gold has --no-thread, --thread-count and several other --thread-count-*.
There are needs to customize the number of threads (running several lld
processes concurrently or customizing the number of LTO threads).
Having a single --threads=N is a straightforward replacement of gold's
--no-threads + --thread-count.
--no-threads is used rarely. So just delete --no-threads instead of
keeping it for compatibility for a while.
If --threads= is specified (ELF,wasm; COFF /threads: is similar),
--thinlto-jobs= defaults to --threads=,
otherwise all available hardware threads are used.
There is currently no way to override a --threads={1,2,...}. It is still
a debate whether we should use --threads=all.

This is useful for enforcing that builds are independent of the
environment; it can be used when all system library paths are added
via /libpath: already. It's similar ot cl.exe's /X flag.
Since it should also affect %LINK% (the other caller of
`Process::GetEnv` in lld/COFF), the early-option-parsing needs
to move around a bit. The options are:
- Add a manual loop over the argv ArrayRef and look for "/lldignoreenv".
This repeats the name of the flag in both Options.td and in
DriverUtils.cpp.
- Add yet another table.ParseArgs() call just for /lldignoreenv before
adding %LINK%.
- Use the existing early ParseArgs() that's there for --rsp-quoting and use
it for /lldignoreenv for %LINK% as well. This means --rsp-quoting
and /lldignoreenv can't be passed via %LINK%.
I went with the third approach.

This is a re-land of r370487 with a fix for the use-after-free bug
that rev contained.
This implements -start-lib and -end-lib flags for lld-link, analogous
to the similarly named options in ld.lld. Object files after
-start-lib are included in the link only when needed to resolve
undefined symbols. The -end-lib flag goes back to the normal behavior
of always including object files in the link. This mimics the
semantics of static libraries, but without needing to actually create
the archive file.

For people working on toolchains, add a `/demangle:no` flag that makes lld-link
