The DWARF5 specification says(Appendix F.1):
"The sections that do not require relocation, however, can be
written to the relocatable object (.o) file but ignored by the
linker or they can be written to a separate DWARF object (.dwo)
file that need not be accessed by the linker."
The first part describes a single file split DWARF feature and there
is no way to trigger this behavior atm.
Fortunately, no many changes are required to keep *.dwo sections
in a .o, the patch does that.

Since -gsplit-dwarf is specified on a backend compile (in ThinLTO
parlance) it isn't passed during the frontend compile (because no ELF
object/dwo file is produced then), yet the -fno-split-dwarf-inlining
value needs to be encoded in the LLVM DebugInfo metadata to have
effect...
So let it be specified & it'll be silently ignored if -gsplit-dwarf
isn't used in the end, otherwise it'll be used on a per-cu basis
depending on where it's specified in the frontend compile actions.

Since Split DWARF needs to name the actual .dwo file that is generated,
it can't be known at the time the llvm::Module is produced as it may be
merged with other Modules before the object is generated and that object
may be generated with any name.
By passing the Split DWARF file name when LLVM is producing object code
the .dwo file name in the object file can match correctly.
The support for Split DWARF for implicit modules remains the same -
using metadata to store the dwo name and dwo id so that potentially
multiple skeleton CUs referring to different dwo files can be generated
from one llvm::Module.

I tested the cases involving split-dwarf + gmlt +
no-split-dwarf-inlining, but didn't verify the simpler case without
gmlt.
The logic is, admittedly, a little hairy, but seems about as simple as I
could wrangle it.

If the inline info is not duplicated into the skeleton CU, then there's
value in using -gsplit-dwarf and -gmlt together (to keep all those extra
subprograms out of the skeleton CU, while also producing smaller .dwo
files)

Adds driver options named -glldb and -gsce to mean -g plus tuning for
lldb and SCE debuggers respectively; the existing -ggdb option does
the same for gdb. Existing options -ggdb0, -ggdb1 etc. unpack into
-ggdb -g<N>. (There will not be -glldb<N> or -gsce<N> options.) The
tuning gets a target-specific default in the driver, and is passed
into cc1 with the new -debugger-tuning option.
As fallout, fixes where '-gsplit-dwarf -g0' would ignore the -g0 part
on Linux.

With this change, most 'g' options are rejected by CompilerInvocation.
They remain only as Driver options. The new way to request debug info
from cc1 is with "-debug-info-kind={line-tables-only|limited|standalone}"
and "-dwarf-version={2|3|4}". In the absence of a command-line option
to specify Dwarf version, the Toolchain decides it, rather than placing
Toolchain-specific logic in CompilerInvocation.
Also fix a bug in the Windows compatibility argument parsing
in which the "rightmost argument wins" principle failed.

It doesn't make any sense to enable -gmlt with -gsplit-dwarf, since
-gmlt is designed for on-line symbolication (and -gsplit-dwarf normally
emits all the -gmlt data into the .o anyway - so there's nothing to
split out except redundant/duplicate info).
With this change they override each other, -gmlt -gsplit-dwarf is the
same as -gsplit-dwarf and -gsplit-dwarf -gmlt is the same as -gmlt.

integrated assembler then go ahead and still split the dwarf anyhow.
Add two tests, one to exercise existing behavior of not splitting
when we're just emitting assembly files and the other to test
that we split when we're not in integrated as mode.

to want to propagate some information through the module into
the back end and so need to pass it through to codegen.
Also make the methods file static so we can use them in other places.
