Force `-Werror=strict-prototypes` so that C API tests fail to compile if
we add a non-prototype declaration. This should help avoid regressions
like bddecba4b3 was fixing.

Summary: This brings us to full feature parity with the old API, so I've deprecated it and updated the tests. I'll do a follow-up patch to do some more cleanup and documentation work in this header.

Summary:
Provides a new type, `LLVMBinaryRef`, and a binding to `llvm::object::createBinary` for more general interoperation with binary files than `LLVMObjectFileRef`. It also provides the proper non-consuming API for input buffers and populates an out parameter for error handling if necessary - two things the previous API did not do.
In a follow-up, I'll define section and symbol iterators and begin to build upon the existing test infrastructure.
This patch is a first step towards deprecating that API and replacing it with something more robust.

to reflect the new license.
We understand that people may be surprised that we're moving the header
entirely to discuss the new license. We checked this carefully with the
Foundation's lawyer and we believe this is the correct approach.
Essentially, all code in the project is now made available by the LLVM
project under our new license, so you will see that the license headers
include that license only. Some of our contributors have contributed
code under our old license, and accordingly, we have retained a copy of
our old license notice in the top-level files in each project and
repository.

Type specific declarations have been moved to Type.h and error handling
routines have been moved to ErrorHandling.h. Both are included in Core.h
so nothing should change for projects directly including the headers,
but transitive dependencies may be affected.

Originally added in r139314.
Back then it didn't actually get the address, it got whatever value the
relocation used: address or offset.
The values in different object formats are:
* MachO: Always an offset.
* COFF: Always an address, but when talking about the virtual address of
sections it says: "for simplicity, compilers should set this to zero".
* ELF: An offset for .o files and and address for .so files. In the case of the
.so, the relocation in not linked to any section (sh_info is 0). We can't
really compute an offset.
Some API mappings would be:
* Use getAddress for everything. It would be quite cumbersome. To compute the
address elf has to follow sh_info, which can be corrupted and therefore the
method has to return an ErrorOr. The address of the section is also the same
for every relocation in a section, so we shouldn't have to check the error
and fetch the value for every relocation.
* Use a getValue and make it up to the user to know what it is getting.
* Use a getOffset and:
* Assert for dynamic ELF objects. That is a very peculiar case and it is
probably fair to ask any tool that wants to support it to use ELF.h. The
only tool we have that reads those (llvm-readobj) already does that. The
only other use case I can think of is a dynamic linker.
* Check that COFF .obj files have sections with zero virtual address spaces. If
it turns out that some assembler/compiler produces these, we can change
COFFObjectFile::getRelocationOffset to subtract it. Given COFF format,
this can be done without the need for ErrorOr.
The getRelocationAddress method was never implemented for COFF. It also
had exactly one use in a very peculiar case: a shortcut for adding the
section value to a pcrel reloc on MachO.
Given that, I don't expect that there is any use out there of the C API. If
that is not the case, let me know and I will add it back with the implementation
inlined and do a proper deprecation.

We normally don't drop functions from the C API's, but in this case I think we
can:
* The old implementation of getFileOffset was fairly broken
* The introduction of LLVMGetSymbolFileOffset was itself a C api breaking
change as it removed LLVMGetSymbolOffset.
* It is an incredibly specialized use case. The only reason MCJIT needs it is
because of its odd position of being a dynamic linker of .o files.

This gives a lot of love to the docs for the C API. Like Clang's
documentation, the C API is now organized into a Doxygen "module"
(LLVMC). Each C header file is a child of the main module. Some modules
(like Core) have a hierarchy of there own. The produced documentation is
thus better organized (before everything was in one monolithic list).
This patch also includes a lot of new documentation for APIs in Core.h.
It doesn't document them all, but is better than none. Function docs are
missing @param and @return annotation, but the documentation body now
commonly provides help details (like the expected llvm::Value sub-type
to expect).
