The aux symbols were stored in an opaque std::vector<uint8_t>,
with contents interpreted according to the rest of the symbol.
All aux symbol types but one fit in 18 bytes (sizeof(coff_symbol16)),
and if written to a bigobj, two extra padding bytes are written (as
sizeof(coff_symbol32) is 20). In the storage agnostic intermediate
representation, store the aux symbols as a series of coff_symbol16
sized opaque blobs. (In practice, all such aux symbols only consist
of one aux symbol, so this is more flexible than what reality needs.)
The special case is the file aux symbols, which are written in
potentially more than one aux symbol slot, without any padding,
as one single long string. This can't be stored in the same opaque
vector of fixed sized aux symbol entries. The file aux symbols will
occupy a different number of aux symbol slots depending on the type
of output object file. As nothing in the intermediate process needs
to have accurate raw symbol indices, updating that is moved into the
writer class.

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.

These were copied as part of the original design from the ELF
backend, but aren't necessary at the moment.
