The current state of affairs has auxiliary symbols described as a big
bag of bytes. This is less than satisfying, it detracts from the YAML
file as being human readable.
Instead, allow for symbols to optionally contain their auxiliary data.
This allows us to have a much higher level way of describing things like
weak symbols, function definitions and section definitions.
This depends on D3105.

Microsoft PE/COFF Spec clearly states that the field is of signed interger
type. However, in reality, it's unsigned. If cl.exe needs to create a large
number of sections for COMDAT sections, it will just create more than 32768
sections. Handling large section number as negative number is not correct.
I think this is a spec bug.

This compiles with no changes to clang/lld/lldb with MSVC and includes
overloads to various functions which are used by those projects and llvm
which have OwningPtr's as parameters. This should allow out of tree
projects some time to move. There are also no changes to libs/Target,
which should help out of tree targets have time to move, if necessary.

This interface allows IRObjectFile to be implemented without having dummy
methods for all section and segment related methods.
Both llvm-ar and llvm-nm are changed to use it. Unfortunately the mangler is
still not plugged in since it requires some refactoring to make a Module hold
a DataLayout.

It is not clear how much we should try to expose in getFlags. For example,
should there be a SF_Object and a SF_Text?
But for information that is already being exposed, we may as well use it in
llvm-nm.

COFF has only one symbol table.
MachO has a LC_DYSYMTAB, but that is not a symbol table, just extra info about
the one symbol table (LC_SYMTAB).
IR (coming soon) also has only one table.

None of the object file formats reported error on iterator increment. In
retrospect, that is not too surprising: no object format stores symbols or
sections in a linked list or other structure that requires chasing pointers.
As a consequence, all error checking can be done on begin() and end().
This reduces the text segment of bin/llvm-readobj in my machine from 521233 to
518526 bytes.

identify_magic is not free, so we should avoid calling it twice. The argument
also makes it cheap for createBinary to just forward to createObjectFile.

I did write a version returning ErrorOr<OwningPtr<Binary> >, but it is too
cumbersome to use without std::move. I will keep the patch locally and submit
when we switch to c++11.

This puts all the global PassManager debugging flags, like
-print-after-all and -time-passes, behind a managed static. This
eliminates their static initializers and, more importantly, exit-time
destructors.
The only behavioral change I anticipate is that tools need to
initialize the PassManager before parsing the command line in order to
export these options, which makes sense. Tools that already initialize
the standard passes (opt/llc) don't need to do anything new.

It was only used to implement ExecuteAndWait and ExecuteNoWait. Expose just
those two functions and make Execute and Wait implementations details.

Improve performance of iterating over children and accessing the member file
buffer by caching the file size and moving code out to the header.
This also makes getBuffer return a StringRef instead of a MemoryBuffer. Both
fixing a memory leak and removing a malloc.
This takes getBuffer from ~10% of the time in lld to unmeasurable.

into their new header subdirectory: include/llvm/IR. This matches the
directory structure of lib, and begins to correct a long standing point
of file layout clutter in LLVM.
There are still more header files to move here, but I wanted to handle
them in separate commits to make tracking what files make sense at each
layer easier.
The only really questionable files here are the target intrinsic
tablegen files. But that's a battle I'd rather not fight today.
I've updated both CMake and Makefile build systems (I think, and my
tests think, but I may have missed something).
I've also re-sorted the includes throughout the project. I'll be
committing updates to Clang, DragonEgg, and Polly momentarily.

Again, tools are trickier to pick the main module header for than
library source files. I've started to follow the pattern of using
LLVMContext.h when it is included as a stub for program source files.

make it more consistent with its intended semantics.
The `linker_private_weak_def_auto' linkage type was meant to automatically hide
globals which never had their addresses taken. It has nothing to do with the
`linker_private' linkage type, which outputs the symbols with a `l' (ell) prefix
among other things.
The intended semantic is more like the `linkonce_odr' linkage type.
Change the name of the linkage type to `linkonce_odr_auto_hide'. And therefore
changing the semantics so that it produces the correct output for the linker.
Note: The old linkage name `linker_private_weak_def_auto' will still parse but
is not a synonym for `linkonce_odr_auto_hide'. This should be removed in 4.0.
