Normally we should not delete options. However, the Clang driver passes
`-plugin-opt={new,legacy}-pass-manager` instead of
`--[no-]lto-legacy-pass-manager` (`-plugin-opt=new-pass-manager` has been used
since 7.0), and it is unlikely anyone will use the `--lto-*` style options directly.
So let's rename them to be consistent with the Clang driver option names.

in the archive.
Note that we were previously inserting the symbols and sections of the
unpacked ObjFile into the containing ArchiveFile. This was actually
unnecessary -- we can just insert the ObjectFile (or BitcodeFile) into

This patch changes the archive handling to enable the semantics needed
for legacy FORTRAN common blocks and block data. When we have a COMMON
definition of a symbol and are including an archive, LLD will now
search the members for global/weak defintions to override the COMMON
symbol. The previous LLD behavior (where a member would only be included
if it satisifed some other needed symbol definition) can be re-enabled with the
option '-no-fortran-common'.

This change improves our support for shared memory to include
PIC executables (and shared libraries).
To handle this case the linker-generated `__wasm_init_memory`

This makes the llvm-objdump output much more readable and closer to binutils objdump. This builds on D76591
It requires changing the OperandType for certain immediates to "OPERAND_PCREL" so tablegen will generate code to pass the instruction's address. This means we can't do the generic check on these instructions in verifyInstruction any more. Should I add it back with explicit opcode checks? Or should we add a new operand flag to control the passing of address instead of matching the name?

Don't early return from layoutMemory in PIC mode before we have set the
memory limits.
This matters in particular with shared-memory + PIC because shared
memories require maximum size.
Secondly, when we need a maximum, but the user does not supply one,
default to MAX_INT rather than 0 (defaulting to zero is completely
useless and means that building with -shared didn't previously work at
all without --maximum-memory, because zero is never big enough).

The problem was that `sym` became replaced in the call
to make<ObjFile> and referring to it afer that read memory that now
stored a different kind of symbol (a Defined instead of a LazySymbol).
Since this happens only once per archive, just copy the symbol to the
stack before make<ObjFile> and read the copy instead.

This reverts a side effect introduced in the code cleanup patch D43571:
LLD started to emit empty output sections that are explicitly assigned to a segment.
This patch fixes the issue by removing the !sec.phdrs.empty() special case from
isDiscardable. As compensation, we add an early phdrs propagation step (see the inline comment).
This is similar to one that we do in adjustSectionsAfterSorting.

Under existing behavior discarded functions are relocated to have the start pc
0. This causes problems when debugging as they typically overlap the first
function and lldb symbol resolution frequently chooses a discarded function
instead of the correct one. Using the value -1 or -2 (depending on which DWARF
section we are writing) is sufficient to prevent lldb from resolving to these
symbols.

Symbols of the same type must be laid out contiguously: following ld64's
lead, we choose to emit all local symbols first, then external symbols,
and finally undefined symbols. For each symbol type, the LC_DYSYMTAB
load command will record the range (start index and total number) of
those symbols in the symbol table.
This work was motivated by the fact that LLDB won't search for debug
info if LC_DYSYMTAB says there are no local symbols (since STABS symbols
are all local symbols). With this change, LLDB is now able to display
the source lines at a given breakpoint when debugging our binaries.
Some tests had to be updated due to local symbol names now appearing in
`llvm-objdump`'s output.

Debug sections contain a large amount of data. In order not to bloat the size
of the final binary, we remove them and instead emit STABS symbols for
`dsymutil` and the debugger to locate their contents in the object files.
With this diff, `dsymutil` is able to locate the debug info. However, we need
a few more features before `lldb` is able to work well with our binaries --
e.g. having `LC_DYSYMTAB` accurately reflect the number of local symbols,
emitting `LC_UUID`, and more. Those will be handled in follow-up diffs.
Note also that the STABS we emit differ slightly from what ld64 does. First, we
emit the path to the source file as one `N_SO` symbol instead of two. (`ld64`
emits one `N_SO` for the dirname and one of the basename.) Second, we do not
emit `N_BNSYM` and `N_ENSYM` STABS to mark the start and end of functions,
because the `N_FUN` STABS already serve that purpose. @clayborg recommended
these changes based on his knowledge of what the debugging tools look for.
Additionally, this current implementation doesn't accurately reflect the size
of function symbols. It uses the size of their containing sectioins as a proxy,
but that is only accurate if `.subsections_with_symbols` is set, and if there
isn't an `N_ALT_ENTRY` in that particular subsection. I think we have two
options to solve this:
1. We can split up subsections by symbol even if `.subsections_with_symbols`
is not set, but include constraints to ensure those subsections retain
their order in the final output. This is `ld64`'s approach.
2. We could just add a `size` field to our `Symbol` class. This seems simpler,
and I'm more inclined toward it, but I'm not sure if there are use cases
that it doesn't handle well. As such I'm punting on the decision for now.
