If /subsystem:windows is passed, link.exe only looks for WinMain and wWinMain,
and if /subsystem:console is passed it only looks for main and wmain. lld-link
used to look for all 4 in both cases. This patch makes lld-link match
link.exe's behavior.
This requires that the subsystem is known by the time findDefaultEntry() gets
called. findDefaultEntry() is called before the main link loop, so that the
loop can mark the entry point as undefined. That means inferSubsystem() has to
be called above the main loop as well. This in turn means /subsystem: from
.drectve sections only has an effect on entry point inference for obj files
passed to lld-link directly (and not in obj files found later in .lib files).
link.exe seems to ignore /subsystem: for obj files from lib files completely
(while in lld it's ignored only for entry point detection but it still
overrides /subsystem: flags passed on the command line for the value that gets
written in the output file).
Also, if the subsytem isn't needed (e.g. when only writing a /def: lib file and
not writing a coff file), link.exe doesn't complain if the subsystem isn't
known, so both subsystem and entry point handling should be below the early
return lld has for that case.
Fixes PR36523.

LinkerDriver::inferSubsystem() used to do Symtab->findUnderscore("WinMain"),
but WinMain is stdcall in 32-bit and is hence is called _WinMain@16. Instead,
Symtab->findMangle(mangle("WinMain")) needs to be called.
But since LinkerDriver::inferSubsystem() and LinkerDriver::findDefaultEntry()
both need to call this, introduce a common helper function for this and call it
from both places. (Also call it for "main" for consistency, even though
findUnderscore() is enough for main since that's __cdecl on 32-bit).
This also exposed a bug for /nodefaultlib entrypoint inference: The code here
called findMangle(Sym) instead of findMangle(mangle(Sym)), again doing the
wrong thing on 32-bit. Fix that too.
While here, make Driver::mangle() a static free function.

This was useful for LTO bringup in lld-link while lld couldn't write PDBs. Now
that it can, this should no longer be needed. Hopefully the flag is obscure
enough and recent enough, that nobody uses it – but if somebody should use it,
they should be able to just stop passing it and things should continue to work.

lld currently prepends the absolute path to itself to every diagnostic it
emits. This path can be longer than the diagnostic, and makes the actual error
message hard to read.
There isn't a good reason for printing this path: if you want to know which lld
you're running, pass -v to clang – chances are that if you're unsure of this,
you're not only unsure when it errors out. Some people want an indication that
the diagnostic is from the linker though, so instead print just the basename of
the linker's path.

This patch changes relative path for source files in obj files to
absolute path in PDB when linking with added flag.
I will make obj file generated by clang-cl independent from build
directory for chromium build. But I don't want to confuse visual studio
debugger or require additional configuration. To attain this goal, I
added flag to convert relative source file path in obj to absolute path
when emitting PDB.
By removing absolute path from obj files, we can share build cache
between chromium developers even when they are doing debug build.
That will make build time faster.

Previously we would always write a hash of the binary into the
PE file, for reproducible builds. This breaks AppCompat, which
is a feature of Windows that relies on the timestamp in the PE
header being set to a real value (or at the very least, a value
that satisfies certain properties).
To address this, we put the old behavior of writing the hash
behind the /Brepro flag, which mimics MSVC linker behavior. We
also match MSVC default behavior, which is to write an actual
timestamp to the PE header. Finally, we add the /TIMESTAMP
option (an lld extension) so that the user can specify the exact
value to be used in case he/she manually constructs a value which
is both reproducible and satisfies AppCompat.

The operator == used for exporting a function with a different
name in the DLL compared to the name in the import library
(which is useful for adding linker level aliases for function
in the import library) is a feature distinct and different from
the operator = used for exporting a function with a different
name (both in import library and DLL) than in the implementation
producing the DLL.
When creating an import library using dlltool, from a def file that
contains forwards (Func = OtherDll.Func), this shouldn't affect the
produced import library, which should still behave just as if it
was a normal exported function.
This clears a lot of confusion and subtle misunderstandings, and
avoids a parameter that was used to avoid creating weak aliases
when invoked from lld. (This parameter was added previously due to
the existing conflation of the two features.)

Summary:
In a number of places in the COFF linker, we were calling
MemoryBuffer::getFile() with default parameters. This causes LLVM to
NUL-terminate the buffers, which can prevent them from being memory
mapped. Since we operate on binary and do not use NUL as an indicator
of the end of the file content, this change causes us to not require
the NUL terminator anymore.

Natvis is a debug language supported by Visual Studio for
specifying custom visualizers. The /NATVIS option is an
undocumented link.exe flag which will take a .natvis file
and "inject" it into the PDB. This way, you can ship the
debug visualizers for a program along with the PDB, which
is very useful for postmortem debugging.
This is implemented by adding a new "named stream" to the
PDB with a special name of /src/files/<natvis file name>
and simply copying the contents of the xml into this file.
Additionally, we need to emit a single stream named
/src/headerblock which contains a hash table of embedded
files to records describing them.
This patch adds this functionality, including the /NATVIS
option to lld-link.

GNU ld has got a number of different flags for adjusting how to
behave around stdcall functions. The --kill-at flag strips the
trailing sdcall suffix from exported functions (which otherwise
is included by default in MinGW setups).
This also strips it from the corresponding import library though.
That makes it hard to link to such an import library from code
that calls the functions - but this matches what GNU ld does with
this flag. Therefore, this flag is probably not sensibly used
together with import libraries, but probably mostly when creating
some sort of plugin, or if creating the import library separately
with dlltool.

similar to the structured exception handler table (/safeseh).
Both /safeseh and /guard:cf take sections of symbol table indices
(.sxdata and .gfids$y) and turn them into RVA tables referenced by the
load config struct in the CRT through special symbols.

performing incremental linking. This change makes lld-link's import
library overwriting similarly dependent on whether or not incremental
linking is being performed. This is controlled by the /incremental or
