This change was originally landed in: 5000a1b4b9
It was reverted in: 061e071d8c
This change adds support for a new WASM_SEG_FLAG_STRINGS flag in
the object format which works in a similar fashion to SHF_STRINGS
in the ELF world.
Unlike the ELF linker this support is currently limited:
- No support for SHF_MERGE (non-string merging)
- Always do full tail merging ("lo" can be merged with "hello")
- Only support single byte strings (p2align 0)
Like the ELF linker merging is only performed at `-O1` and above.
This fixes part of https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=48828,
although crucially it doesn't not currently support debug sections
because they are not represented by data segments (they are custom
sections)

This patch renames the "Initial" member of WasmLimits to the name used
in the spec, "Minimum".
In the core WebAssembly specification, the Limits data type has one
required "min" member and one optional "max" member, indicating the
minimum required size of the corresponding table or memory, and the
maximum size, if any.
Although the WebAssembly spec does instantiate locally-defined tables
and memories with the initial size being equal to the minimum size, it
can't impose such a requirement for imports. It doesn't make sense to
require an initial size for a memory import, for example. The compiler
can only sensibly express the minimum and maximum sizes.
See
https://github.com/WebAssembly/js-types/blob/master/proposals/js-types/Overview.md#naming-of-size-limits
for a related discussion that agrees that the right name of "initial" is
"minimum" when querying the type of a table or memory from JavaScript.
(Of course it still makes sense for JS to speak in terms of an initial
size when it explicitly instantiates memories and tables.)

With reference types, tables can have non-zero table numbers. This
commit adds support for element sections against these tables.
Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D97923
Element sections will also need flags, so we shouldn't squat the
WASM_SEGMENT namespace.

This removes `exnref` type and `br_on_exn` instruction. This is
effectively NFC because most uses of these were already removed in the

Allow sections to be placed into COMDAT groups, in addtion to functions and data
segments.
Also make section symbols unnamed, which allows sections with identical names
(section names are independent of their section symbols, but previously we
gave the symbols the same name as their sections, which results in collisions
when sections are identically-named).

Summary:
Also changes the wasm YAML format to reflect the possibility of having
multiple return types and to put the returns after the params for
consistency with the binary encoding.

The only known user of this relocation type and symbol type is

Summary:
This ensures that object files will continue to validate as
WebAssembly modules in the presence of bulk memory operations. Engines
that don't support bulk memory operations will not recognize the
DataCount section and will report validation errors, but that's ok
because object files aren't supposed to be run directly anyway.

Summary:
Implements a new target features section in assembly and object files
that records what features are used, required, and disallowed in
WebAssembly objects. The linker uses this information to ensure that
all objects participating in a link are feature-compatible and records
the set of used features in the output binary for use by optimizers
and other tools later in the toolchain.
The "atomics" feature is always required or disallowed to prevent
linking code with stripped atomics into multithreaded binaries. Other
features are marked used if they are enabled globally or on any
function in a module.
Future CLs will add linker flags for ignoring feature compatibility
checks and for specifying the set of allowed features, implement using
the presence of the "atomics" feature to control the type of memory
and segments in the linked binary, and add front-end flags for
relaxing the linkage policy for atomics.

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.

Summary:
This adds support for the 'event section' specified in the exception
handling proposal. (This was named 'exception section' first, but later
renamed to 'event section' to take possibilities of other kinds of
events into consideration. But currently we only store exception info in
this section.)
The event section is added between the global section and the export
section. This is for ease of validation per request of the V8 team.
This patch:
- Creates the event symbol type, which is a weak symbol
- Makes 'throw' instruction take the event symbol '__cpp_exception'
- Adds relocation support for events
- Adds WasmObjectWriter / WasmObjectFile (Reader) support
- Adds obj2yaml / yaml2obj support
- Adds '.eventtype' printing support

This is combination of two patches by Nicholas Wilson:
1. https://reviews.llvm.org/D41954
2. https://reviews.llvm.org/D42495
Along with a few local modifications:
- One change I made was to add the UNDEFINED bit to the binary format
to avoid the extra byte used when writing data symbols. Although this
bit is redundant for other symbols types (i.e. undefined can be
implied if a function or global is a wasm import)
- I prefer to be explicit and consistent and not have derived flags.
- Some field renaming.
- Some reverting of unrelated minor changes.
- No test output differences.
