Summary:
We are using symbols to represent label and csect interchangeably before, and that could be a problem.
There are cases we would need to add storage mapping class to the symbol if that symbol is actually the name of a csect, but it's hard for us to figure out whether that symbol is a label or csect.
This patch intend to do the following:
1. Construct a QualName (A name include the storage mapping class)
MCSymbolXCOFF for every MCSectionXCOFF.
2. Keep a pointer to that QualName inside of MCSectionXCOFF.
3. Use that QualName whenever we need a symbol refers to that
MCSectionXCOFF.
4. Adapt the snowball effect from the above changes in
XCOFFObjectWriter.cpp.

Adds support for generating the XCOFF data section in object files for global variables with initialization.
Merged aix-xcoff-common.ll into aix-xcoff-data.ll.
Changed variable name charr to chrarray in the test case to test if readobj works with 8-character names.

This is a fix to D69112 where we common up the logic of writing CsectGroup.
However, we forget to skip the Sections that are empty in that patch.

Summary:
Right now we handle each CsectGroup(ProgramCodeCsects, BSSCsects)
individually when assigning indices, writing symbol table, and
writing section raw data. However, there is already a pattern there,
and we could common up those actions for every CsectGroup. This will
make adding new CsectGroup(Read Write data, Read only data, TC/TOC,
mergeable string) easier, and less error prone.

The name of ControlSections is not expressive enough to convey what they really are.
CsectGroup can better communicate the concept of grouping csects together since they have similar property.

This is remaining part of rG41ca91f2995b: [AIX][XCOFF] Output XCOFF
object text section header and symbol entry for rogram code.
SUMMARY:
Original form of this patch is provided by Stefan Pintillie.
1. The patch try to output program code section header , symbol entry for
program code (PR) and Instruction into the raw text section.
2. The patch include how to alignment and layout the CSection in the text
section.
3. The patch also reorganize the code , put some codes into a function.
(XCOFFObjectWriter::writeSymbolTableEntryForControlSection)
Additional: We can not add raw data of text section test in the patch, If want
to output raw text section data,it need a function description patch first.

Summary:
Adds support for emitting common local global symbols to an XCOFF object file.
Local commons are emitted into the .bss section with a storage class of
C_HIDEXT.

Previously we would get the csect a symbol was contained in through its
fragment. This works only if we are writing an object file, and only for
defined symbols. To fix this we set the contating csect explicitly on the
MCSymbolXCOFF object.

Adds Wrapper classes for MCSymbol and MCSection into the XCOFF target
object writer. Also adds a class to represent the top-level sections, which we
materialize in the ObjectWriter.
executePostLayoutBinding will map all csects into the appropriate
container depending on its storage mapping class, and map all symbols
into their containing csect. Once all symbols have been processed we
- Assign addresses and symbol table indices.
- Calaculte section sizes.
- Build the section header table.
- Assign the sections raw-pointer value for non-virtual sections.
Since the .bss section is virtual, writing the header table is enough to
add support. Writing of a sections raw data, or of any relocations is
not included in this patch.
Testing is done by dumping the section header table, but it needs to be
extended to include dumping the symbol table once readobj support for
dumping auxiallary entries lands.

Now that we've moved to C++14, we no longer need the llvm::make_unique
implementation from STLExtras.h. This patch is a mechanical replacement
of (hopefully) all the llvm::make_unique instances across the monorepo.
