This is a cherrypick of the upstream fix commit ffe1342 onto
`llvm/utils/benchmark` and `libcxx/utils/google-benchmark`.
This adds CycleTimer implementation for M680x0, which simply
uses `gettimeofday` same as MIPS.

I've put some work into the Google Benchmark library in order to make it easier
to benchmark libc++. These changes have already been upstreamed into
Google Benchmark and this patch applies the changes to the in-tree version.
The main improvement in the addition of a 'compare_bench.py' script which
makes it very easy to compare benchmarks. For example to compare the native
STL to libc++ you would run:
`$ compare_bench.py ./util_smartptr.native.out ./util_smartptr.libcxx.out`
And the output would look like:
RUNNING: ./util_smartptr.native.out

Summary:
This patch does the following:
1. Checks in a copy of the Google Benchmark library into the libc++ repo under `utils/google-benchmark`.
2. Teaches libc++ how to build Google Benchmark against both (A) in-tree libc++ and (B) the platforms native STL.
3. Allows performance benchmarks to be built as part of the libc++ build.
Building the benchmarks (and Google Benchmark) is off by default. It must be enabled using the CMake option `-DLIBCXX_INCLUDE_BENCHMARKS=ON`. When this option is enabled the tests under `libcxx/benchmarks` can be built using the `libcxx-benchmarks` target.
On Linux platforms where libstdc++ is the default STL the CMake option `-DLIBCXX_BUILD_BENCHMARKS_NATIVE_STDLIB=ON` can be used to build each benchmark test against libstdc++ as well. This is useful for comparing performance between standard libraries.
Support for benchmarks is currently very minimal. They must be manually run by the user and there is no mechanism for detecting performance regressions.
Known Issues:
* `-DLIBCXX_INCLUDE_BENCHMARKS=ON` is only supported for Clang, and not GCC, since the `-stdlib=libc++` option is needed to build Google Benchmark.
