Running lit tests and unit tests of ASan and TSan on macOS has very bad performance when running with a high number of threads. This is caused by xnu (the macOS kernel), which currently doesn't handle mapping and unmapping of sanitizer shadow regions (reserved VM which are several terabytes large) very well. The situation is so bad that increasing the number of threads actually makes the total testing time larger. The macOS buildbots are affected by this. Note that we can't easily limit the number of sanitizer testing threads without affecting the rest of the tests.
This patch adds a special "group" into lit, and limits the number of concurrently running tests in this group. This helps solve the contention problem, while still allowing other tests to run in full, that means running lit with -j8 will still with 8 threads, and parallelism is only limited in sanitizer tests.

At the moment almost every lit.site.cfg.in contains two lines comment:
## Autogenerated by LLVM/Clang configuration.
# Do not edit!
The patch adds variable LIT_SITE_CFG_IN_HEADER, that is replaced from
configure_lit_site_cfg with the note and some useful information.

This commit changes the strategy for building shared ASan runtime
and the way we test it:
- COMPILER_RT_BUILD_SHARED_ASAN CMake option is removed. We now
always build shared ASan runtime (it is the default on Android,
Windows and Mac, and not the default on Linux and FreeBSD).
- Platforms, which use static runtime by default now have
"check-asan-dynamic" testsuite. This testsuite contains instrumented
unit tests, and ASan lit tests, and runs them with shared ASan
runtime. This testsuite is *not* a part of "check-asan" and
*not* a part of "check-all", as adding 1000 more test cases, which
duplicate existing ones is costly. However, you're welcome to
add this command to your buildbot.

Summary:
First, remove lit configuration that sets ASAN_OPTIONS to detect_leaks=1
because this is already the default when leak detection is supported.
This removes a bit of duplication between various lit.cfg files.
Second, add a new feature 'leak-detection' if we're targetting x86_64
(not i386) on Linux.
Third, change a couple of tests that need leak detection to require the
new 'leak-detection' feature.
