This paves the way to doing more things in parallel, and allows us to
order type sources in dependency order. PDBs and PCH objects have to be
loaded before object files which use them.
This is a rebase of the unapplied remaining changes in
https://reviews.llvm.org/D59226. I found it very challenging to rebase
this across the LLD variable name style change. I recall there was a
tool for that, but I didn't take the time to use it.

This patch does the same thing as r365595 to other subdirectories,
which completes the naming style change for the entire lld directory.
With this, the naming style conversion is complete for lld.

We need to have all input files ready before doing debuginfo type merging.
This patch is moving the late PDB type server discovery much earlier in the process, when the explicit inputs (OBJs, LIBs) are loaded.
The short term goal is to parallelize type merging.

We introduce a new class hierarchy for debug types merging (in DebugTypes.h). The end-goal is to parallelize the type merging - please see the plan in D59226.
Previously, dependency discovery was done on the fly, much later, during the type merging loop. Unfortunately, parallelizing the type merging requires the dependencies to be merged in first, before any dependent ObjFile, thus this early discovery.
The overall intention for this path is to discover debug information dependencies at a much earlier stage, when processing input files. Currently, two types of dependency are supported: PDB type servers (when compiling with MSVC /Zi) and precompiled headers OBJs (when compiling with MSVC /Yc and /Yu). Once discovered, an explicit link is added into the dependent ObjFile, through the new debug types class hierarchy introduced in DebugTypes.h.
