In llvm-objdump, we pass the address of the next MCInst. Ideally we
should just thread the address of the current address, unfortunately we
cannot call X86MCCodeEmitter::encodeInstruction (X86MCCodeEmitter
requires MCInstrInfo and MCContext) to get the length of the MCInst.
MCInstPrinter::printInst has other callers (e.g llvm-mc -filetype=asm, llvm-mca) which set Address to 0.
They leave MCInstPrinter::PrintBranchImmAsAddress as false and this change is a no-op for them.

The new behavior matches GNU objdump. A pair of angle brackets makes tests slightly easier.
`.foo:` is not unique and thus cannot be used in a `CHECK-LABEL:` directive.
Without `-LABEL`, the CHECK line can match the `Disassembly of section`
line and causes the next `CHECK-NEXT:` to fail.
```

This improves readability and the behavior is consistent with GNU objdump.
The new test test/tools/llvm-objdump/X86/disassemble-section-name.s
checks we print newlines before and after "Disassembly of section ...:"

Also change some options that have different semantics (cause confusion) in llvm-readelf mode:
-s => -S
-t => --symbols
-sd => --section-data
llvm-svn: 359651
Previously, we assumed that .rdata is zero-filled, so when writing
an COFF import table, we didn't write anything if the data is zero.
That assumption was wrong because .rdata can be merged with .text.
If .rdata is merged with .text, they are initialized with 0xcc which
is a trap instruction.
This patch removes that assumption from code.
Should be merged to 8.0 branch as this is a regression.

In this reland I removed an unnecessary use of /debug in the test
delayimports32.test and used the /pdbaltpath flag in the test
pdb-publics-import.test, both of which avoid embedding absolute PDB
paths in executables which could affect later RVAs.

One place where this seems to matter is to make sure the .rsrc section comes
after .text. The Win32 UpdateResource() function can change the contents of
.rsrc. It will move the sections that come after, but if .text gets moved, the
entry point header will not get updated and the executable breaks. This was
found by a test in Chromium.

Noticed while testing for an out of tree target. There are probably more tests that should be so marked.
I'm not sure who owns these tests so I've added a few names I recognise from the recent history.
With advice from probinson, ruiu, rafael and dramatically improved by davidb. Thank you all!

Previously, LLD-produced executables had IAT (Import Address Table) and
ILT (Import Lookup Table) as separate chunks of data, although their
contents are identical. My interpretation of the COFF spec when I wrote
the COFF linker is that they need to be separate tables even though they
are the same.
But Peter found that the Windows loader is fine with executables in
which IAT and ILT are merged. This is a patch to merge IAT and ILT.
I confirmed that an lld-link self-hosted with this patch works fine.

Symbols exported by DLLs can be imported not by name but by
small number or ordinal. Usually, symbols have both ordinals
and names, and in that case ordinals are called "hints" and
used by the loader as hints.
However, symbols can have only ordinals. They are called
import-by-ordinal symbols. You need to manage ordinals by hand
so that they will never change if you choose to use the feature.
But it's supposed to make dynamic linking faster because
it needs no string comparison. Not sure if that claim still
stands in year 2015, though. Anyways, the feature exists,
and this patch implements that.

Currently we set the field to zero, but as per the spec, we should
set numbers we read from import library files. The loader uses the
values as starting offsets for binary search when looking up imported
symbols from DLL.

This is an initial patch for a section-based COFF linker.
The patch has 2300 lines of code including comments and blank lines.
Before diving into details, you want to start from reading README
because it should give you an overview of the design.
All important things are written in the README file, so I write
summary here.
- The linker is already able to self-link on Windows.
- It's significantly faster than the existing implementation.
The existing one takes 5 seconds to link LLD on my machine,
while the new one only takes 1.2 seconds, even though the new
one is not multi-threaded yet. (And a proof-of-concept multi-
threaded version was able to link it in 0.5 seconds.)
- It uses much less memory (250MB vs. 2GB virtual memory space
to self-host).
- IMHO the new code is much simpler and easier to read than
the existing PE/COFF port.
