This patch adds support for creating Guard Address-Taken IAT Entry Tables (.giats$y sections) in object files, matching the behavior of MSVC. These contain lists of address-taken imported functions, which are used by the linker to create the final GIATS table.
Additionally, if any DLLs are delay-loaded, the linker must look through the .giats tables and add the respective load thunks of address-taken imports to the GFIDS table, as these are also valid call targets.

This is a more full featured version of ``--allow-undefined``.
The semantics of the different methods are as follows:
report-all:
Report all unresolved symbols. This is the default. Normally the
linker will generate an error message for each reported unresolved
symbol but the option ``--warn-unresolved-symbols`` can change this
to a warning.
ignore-all:
Resolve all undefined symbols to zero. For data and function
addresses this is trivial. For direct function calls, the linker
will generate a trapping stub function in place of the undefined
function.
import-functions:
Generate WebAssembly imports for any undefined functions. Undefined
data symbols are resolved to zero as in `ignore-all`. This
corresponds to the legacy ``--allow-undefined`` flag.
The plan is to followup with a new mode called `import-dynamic` which
allows for statically linked binaries to refer to both data and
functions symbols from the embedder.

As mentioned in https://reviews.llvm.org/D67479#1667256 ,
* `--[no-]allow-shlib-undefined` control the diagnostic for an unresolved symbol in a shared object
* `-z defs/-z undefs` control the diagnostic for an unresolved symbol in a regular object file
* `--unresolved-symbols=` controls both bits.
In addition, make --warn-unresolved-symbols affect --no-allow-shlib-undefined.
This patch makes the behavior match GNU ld.

`try ... catch` in an inline function produces `.gcc_except_table.*` in a COMDAT
group with GCC or newer Clang (since D83655). For --gc-sections, currently we
scan `.eh_frame` pieces and mark liveness of such a `.gcc_except_table.*` and
then the associated `.text.*` (if a member in a section group is retained, the
others should be retained as well).
Essentially all `.text.*` and `.gcc_except_table.*` compiled from inline
functions with `try ... catch` cannot be discarded by the imprecise
--gc-sections. Compared with the state before D83655, the output
`.gcc_except_table` is smaller (non-prevailing copies in COMDAT groups can now
be discarded) but `.text` may be larger, i.e. size regression.
This patch teaches the .eh_frame piece scanning code to not mark
`.gcc_except_table` in a section group, thus allow unused `.text.*` and
`.gcc_except_table.*` in a section group to be discarded.
Note, non-group `.gcc_except_table` can still not be discarded. That is the status quo.

`-flavor` is difficult to use through the clang driver since it
must be the first argument.
clang's `-fuse-ld=foo` looks for `ld64.foo` when targeting darwin,
so it's easiest if darwinnew accepts some `ld64.foo`. Let's go with
`ld64.lld.darwinnew`, so that `clang -fuse-ld=lld.darwinnew` does
the right thing (assuming a symlink with the name `ld64.ld.darwinnew
exists in the right place).
This is temporary until darwinnew replaces ld64.lld, and it only
exists to make testing the new lld port easier.
These relocations represent offsets from the __tls_base symbol.
Previously we were just using normal MEMORY_ADDR relocations and relying
on the linker to select a segment-offset rather and absolute value in
Symbol::getVirtualAddress(). Using an explicit relocation type allows
allow us to clearly distinguish absolute from relative relocations based
on the relocation information alone.
One place this is useful is being able to reject absolute relocation in
the PIC case, but still accept TLS relocations.

* The Rust compiler produces SHF_ALLOC `.debug_gdb_scripts` (which normally does not have the flag)

`=>` segfault when marking liveness of a `.debug_gdb_scripts` which is not split into pieces (because it is not in `inputSections`)

Input sections `.ctors/.ctors.N` may go to either the output section `.init_array` or the output section `.ctors`:
* output `.ctors`: currently we sort them by name. This patch changes to sort by priority from high to low. If N in `.ctors.N` is in the form of %05u, there is no semantic difference. Actually GCC and Clang do use %05u. (In the test `ctors_dtors_priority.s` and Gold's test `gold/testsuite/script_test_14.s`, we can see %03u, but they are not really produced by compilers.)
* output `.init_array`: users can provide an input section description `SORT_BY_INIT_PRIORITY(.init_array.* .ctors.*)` to mix `.init_array.*` and `.ctors.*`. This can make .init_array.N and .ctors.(65535-N) interchangeable.
With this change, users can mix `.ctors.N` and `.init_array.N` in `.init_array` (PR44698 and PR48096) with linker scripts. As an example:
```
SECTIONS {
.init_array : {
*(SORT_BY_INIT_PRIORITY(.init_array.* .ctors.*))
*(.init_array EXCLUDE_FILE (*crtbegin.o *crtbegin?.o *crtend.o *crtend?.o ) .ctors)

According to
https://sourceware.org/binutils/docs/ld/Input-Section-Basics.html#Input-Section-Basics
for `*(.a .b)`, the order should match the input order:
* for `ld 1.o 2.o`, sections from 1.o precede sections from 2.o
* within a file, `.a` and `.b` appear in the section header table order
This patch implements the behavior. The interaction with `SORT*` and --sort-section is:
Matched sections are ordered by radix sort with the keys being `(SORT*, --sort-section, input order)`,
where `SORT*` (if present) is most significant.
> Note, multiple `SORT*` within an input section description has undocumented and
> confusing behaviors in GNU ld:
> https://sourceware.org/pipermail/binutils/2020-November/114083.html
> Therefore multiple `SORT*` is not the focus for this patch but
> this patch still strives to have an explainable behavior.
As an example, we partition `SORT(a.*) b.* c.* SORT(d.*)`, into
`SORT(a.*) | b.* c.* | SORT(d.*)` and perform sorting within groups. Sections
matched by patterns between two `SORT*` are sorted by input order. If
--sort-alignment is given, they are sorted by --sort-alignment, breaking tie by
input order.
This patch also allows a section to be matched by multiple patterns, previously
duplicated sections could occupy more space in the output and had erroneous zero bytes.
The patch is in preparation for support for
`*(SORT_BY_INIT_PRIORITY(.init_array.* .ctors.*)) *(.init_array .ctors)`,
which will allow LLD to mix .ctors*/.init_array* like GNU ld (gold's --ctors-in-init-array)

This is a follow-up for D70378 (Cover usage of LLD as a library).
While debugging an intermittent failure on a bot, I recalled this scenario which
causes the issue:
1.When executing lld/test/ELF/invalid/symtab-sh-info.s L45, we reach
lld:🧝:Obj-File::ObjFile() which goes straight into its base ELFFileBase(),
then ELFFileBase::init().
2.At that point fatal() is thrown in lld/ELF/InputFiles.cpp L381, leaving a
half-initialized ObjFile instance.
3.We then end up in lld::exitLld() and since we are running with LLD_IN_TEST, we
hapily restore the control flow to CrashRecoveryContext::RunSafely() then back
in lld::safeLldMain().
4.Before this patch, we called errorHandler().reset() just after, and this
attempted to reset the associated SpecificAlloc<ObjFile<ELF64LE>>. That tried
to free the half-initialized ObjFile instance, and more precisely its
ObjFile::dwarf member.
Sometimes that worked, sometimes it failed and was catched by the
CrashRecoveryContext. This scenario was the reason we called
errorHandler().reset() through a CrashRecoveryContext.
But in some rare cases, the above repro somehow corrupted the heap, creating a
stack overflow. When the CrashRecoveryContext's filter (that is,
__except (ExceptionFilter(GetExceptionInformation()))) tried to handle the
exception, it crashed again since the stack was exhausted -- and that took the
whole application down. That is the issue seen on the bot. Locally it happens
about 1 times out of 15.
Now this situation can happen anywhere in LLD. Since catching stack overflows is
not a reliable scenario ATM when using CrashRecoveryContext, we're now
preventing further re-entrance when such failures occur, by signaling
lld::SafeReturn::canRunAgain=false. When running with LLD_IN_TEST=2 (or above),
only one iteration will be executed, instead of two.

Previously we limited the use of atomics and TLS to programs
linked with `--shared-memory`.
However, as of https://reviews.llvm.org/D79530 we now allow
programs that use atomic to be linked without `--shared-memory`.
For this to be useful we also want to all TLS usage in such
programs. In this case, since we know we are single threaded
we simply include the TLS data as a regular active segment
and create an immutable `__tls_base` global that point to the
start of this segment.

Apple devtools use this to locate the dSYM files for a given

The UUID is computed based on an MD5 hash of the binary's contents. In order to
hash the contents, we must first write them, but LC_UUID itself must be part of
the written contents in order for all the offsets to be calculated correctly.
We resolve this circular paradox by first writing an LC_UUID with an all-zero
UUID, then updating the UUID with its real value later.
I'm not sure there's a good way to test that the value of the UUID is
"as expected", so I've just checked that it's present.

Stub dylibs differ from "real" dylibs in that they lack any content in
their sections. What they do have are export tries and symbol tables,
which means we can still link against them. I am unclear how to
properly create these stub dylibs; XCode 11.3's `lipo` is able to create
stub dylibs, but those lack LC_ID_DYLIB load commands and are considered
invalid by most tooling. Newer versions of `lipo` aren't able to create
stub dylibs at all. However, recent SDKs in XCode still come with valid
stub dylibs, so it still seems worthwhile to support them. The YAML in
this diff's test was generated by taking a non-stub dylib and editing
