For a relative path in INPUT() or GROUP(), this patch changes the search order by adding the directory of the current linker script.
The new search order (consistent with GNU ld >= 2.35 regarding the new test `test/ELF/input-relative.s`):
1. the directory of the current linker script (GNU ld from Binutils 2.35 onwards; https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=25806)
2. the current working directory
3. library paths (-L)
This behavior makes it convenient to replace a .so or .a with a linker script with additional input. For example, glibc
```
% cat /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libm.a
/* GNU ld script
*/
OUTPUT_FORMAT(elf64-x86-64)
GROUP ( /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libm-2.29.a /usr/lib/x86_64-linux-gnu/libmvec.a )
```
could be simplified as `GROUP(libm-2.29.a libmvec.a)`.
Another example is to make libc++.a a linker script:
```
INPUT(libc++.a.1 libc++abi.a)
```
Note, -l is not affected.

This patch is mechanically generated by clang-llvm-rename tool that I wrote
using Clang Refactoring Engine just for creating this patch. You can see the
source code of the tool at https://reviews.llvm.org/D64123. There's no manual
post-processing; you can generate the same patch by re-running the tool against
lld's code base.
Here is the main discussion thread to change the LLVM coding style:
https://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/llvm-dev/2019-February/130083.html
In the discussion thread, I proposed we use lld as a testbed for variable
naming scheme change, and this patch does that.
I chose to rename variables so that they are in camelCase, just because that
is a minimal change to make variables to start with a lowercase letter.
Note to downstream patch maintainers: if you are maintaining a downstream lld
repo, just rebasing ahead of this commit would cause massive merge conflicts
because this patch essentially changes every line in the lld subdirectory. But
there's a remedy.
clang-llvm-rename tool is a batch tool, so you can rename variables in your
downstream repo with the tool. Given that, here is how to rebase your repo to
a commit after the mass renaming:
1. rebase to the commit just before the mass variable renaming,
2. apply the tool to your downstream repo to mass-rename variables locally, and
3. rebase again to the head.
Most changes made by the tool should be identical for a downstream repo and
for the head, so at the step 3, almost all changes should be merged and
disappear. I'd expect that there would be some lines that you need to merge by
hand, but that shouldn't be too many.

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.

New lld's files are spread under lib subdirectory, and it isn't easy
to find which files are actually maintained. This patch moves maintained
files to Common subdirectory.

D35945 introduces change when there is useless to check Error flag
in few places, but ErrorCount must be checked instead.
But then we probably can just check ErrorCount always. That should simplify
things. Patch do that.

The linker script lexer is context-sensitive. In the regular context,
arithmetic operator characters are regular characters, but in the
expression context, they are independent tokens. This afects how the
lexer tokenizes "3*4", for example. (This kind of expression is real;
the Linux kernel uses it.)
This patch defines function `maybeSplitExpr`. This function splits the
current token into multiple expression tokens if the lexer is in the
expression context.
