Introduce LIBCXX_LIBRARIES_PUBLIC in addition to LIBCXX_LIBRARIES that
holds 'public' interface libraries -- that is, libraries that both
libc++ links to and programs linked against it need to link to.
Currently this includes the ABI library and optionally -lunwind (when
LIBCXXABI_USE_LLVM_UNWINDER is on). The libraries are included in the
linker script, in order to make it possible to link C++ programs using
clang with compiler-rt runtime out-of-the-box.

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.

Summary:
Currently on most platforms you have to manually link the c++ abi library used with libc++ whenever you use libc++. So your typical libc++ command like invocation might look like:
```
clang++ -stdlib=libc++ foo.cpp -lc++abi
```
Having to manually link `libc++abi.so` makes it harder for libc++ to be used generically. This patch fixes that by generating a linker script for `libc++.so` that correctly links the ABI library. On linux the linker script for libc++abi would look like:
```
# libc++.so
INPUT(libc++.so.1 -lc++abi)
```
With the linker script you can now use libc++ using only `-stdlib=libc++`. This is the technique that is used on FreeBSD in ordered to link cxxrt and I think it's the best approach to make our users lives simpler.
The CMake option used to enable this is `LIBCXX_ENABLE_ABI_LINKER_SCRIPT`. In future I would like to enable this by default on all platforms except for Darwin.

Summary:
This patch allows the use of LIT's ShTest format in the libc++ test suite. ShTests have the suffix '.sh.cpp'. It also introduces a series of other changes. These changes are:
- More functionality including parsing test metadata has been moved into LIT.
- LibcxxTestFormat now supports multi-part suffixes.
- the `CXXCompiler` functionality has been used to shrink the size of LibcxxTestFormat.
- The recursive loading of the site config has been turned into `libcxx.test.config.loadSiteConfig` so it can be used with libc++abi.
- Temporary files are now created in the build directory of libc++. This follows how it is down in ShTest.
- `not.py` was added as a utility executable that mirrors the functionality of LLVM's `not` executable.
- The first ShTest test was added under test/libcxx/double_include.sh.cpp
