There was initially some concern around the correct handling of pcrel
section relocations with r_length != 2. But it looks like there are no such
relocations in practice -- x86_64's pcrel section relocs all have r_length == 2,
and ARM64 doesn't even have pcrel section relocs. So we can replace the TODO
with an assert.

When parsing bitcode, convert LTO Symbols to LLD Symbols in order to perform
resolution. The "winning" symbol will then be marked as Prevailing at LTO
compilation time. This is similar to what the other LLD ports do.
This change allows us to handle `linkonce` symbols correctly, and to deal with
duplicate bitcode symbols gracefully. Previously, both scenarios would result in
an assertion failure inside the LTO code, complaining that multiple Prevailing
definitions are not allowed.
While at it, I also added basic logic around visibility. We don't do anything
useful with it yet, but we do check that its value is valid. LLD-ELF appears to
use it only to set FinalDefinitionInLinkageUnit for LTO, which I think is just a
performance optimization.
From my local experimentation, the linker itself doesn't seem to do anything
differently when encountering linkonce / linkonce_odr / weak / weak_odr. So I've
only written a test for one of them. LLD-ELF has more, but they seem to mostly
be testing the intermediate bitcode output of their LTO backend...? I'm far from
an expert here though, so I might very well be missing things.

I've adjusted the RelocAttrBits to better fit the semantics of
the relocations. In particular:
1. *_UNSIGNED relocations are no longer marked with the `TLV` bit, even
though they can occur within TLV sections. Instead the `TLV` bit is
reserved for relocations that can reference thread-local symbols, and
*_UNSIGNED relocations have their own `UNSIGNED` bit. The previous
implementation caused TLV and regular UNSIGNED semantics to be
conflated, resulting in rebase opcodes being incorrectly emitted for TLV
relocations.
2. I've added a new `POINTER` bit to denote non-relaxable GOT
relocations. This distinction isn't important on x86 -- the GOT
relocations there are either relaxable or non-relaxable loads -- but
arm64 has `GOT_LOAD_PAGE21` which loads the page that the referent
symbol is in (regardless of whether the symbol ends up in the GOT). This
relocation must reference a GOT symbol (so must have the `GOT` bit set)
but isn't itself relaxable (so must not have the `LOAD` bit). The
`POINTER` bit is used for relocations that *must* reference a GOT
slot.
3. A similar situation occurs for TLV relocations.
4. ld64 supports both a pcrel and an absolute version of
ARM64_RELOC_POINTER_TO_GOT. But the semantics of the absolute version
are pretty weird -- it results in the value of the GOT slot being
written, rather than the address. (That means a reference to a
dynamically-bound slot will result in zeroes being written.) The
programs I've tried linking don't use this form of the relocation, so
I've dropped our partial support for it by removing the relevant
RelocAttrBits.

Private extern symbols are used for things scoped to the linkage unit.
They cause duplicate symbol errors (so they're in the symbol table,
unlike TU-scoped truly local symbols), but they don't make it into the
export trie. They are created e.g. by compiling with
-fvisibility=hidden.
If two weak symbols have differing privateness, the combined symbol is
non-private external. (Example: inline functions and some TUs that
include the header defining it were built with
-fvisibility-inlines-hidden and some weren't).
A weak private external symbol implicitly has its "weak" dropped and
behaves like a regular strong private external symbol: Weak is an export
trie concept, and private symbols are not in the export trie.
If a weak and a strong symbol have different privateness, the strong
symbol wins.
If two common symbols have differing privateness, the larger symbol
wins. If they have the same size, the privateness of the symbol seen
later during the link wins (!) -- this is a bit lame, but it matches
ld64 and this behavior takes 2 lines less to implement than the less
surprising "result is non-private external), so match ld64.
(Example: `int a` in two .c files, both built with -fcommon,
one built with -fvisibility=hidden and one without.)
This also makes `__dyld_private` a true TU-local symbol, matching ld64.
To make this work, make the `const char*` StringRefZ ctor to correctly
set `size` (without this, writing the string table crashed when calling
getName() on the __dyld_private symbol).
Mention in CommonSymbol's comment that common symbols are now disabled
by default in clang.
Mention in -keep_private_externs's HelpText that the flag only has an
effect with `-r` (which we don't implement yet -- so this patch here
doesn't regress any behavior around -r + -keep_private_externs)). ld64
doesn't explicitly document it, but the commit text of
http://reviews.llvm.org/rL216146 does, and ld64's
OutputFile::buildSymbolTable() checks `_options.outputKind() ==
Options::kObjectFile` before calling `_options.keepPrivateExterns()`
(the only reference to that function).

Weak references need not necessarily be satisfied at runtime (but they must
still be satisfied at link time). So symbol resolution still works as per usual,
but we now pass around a flag -- ultimately emitting it in the bind table -- to
indicate if a given dylib symbol is a weak reference.
ld64's behavior for symbols that have both weak and strong references is
a bit bizarre. For non-function symbols, it will emit a weak import. For
function symbols (those referenced by BRANCH relocs), it will emit a
regular import. I'm not sure what value there is in that behavior, and
since emulating it will make our implementation more complex, I've
decided to treat regular weakrefs like function symbol ones for now.

Debug sections contain a large amount of data. In order not to bloat the size
of the final binary, we remove them and instead emit STABS symbols for
`dsymutil` and the debugger to locate their contents in the object files.
With this diff, `dsymutil` is able to locate the debug info. However, we need
a few more features before `lldb` is able to work well with our binaries --
e.g. having `LC_DYSYMTAB` accurately reflect the number of local symbols,
emitting `LC_UUID`, and more. Those will be handled in follow-up diffs.
Note also that the STABS we emit differ slightly from what ld64 does. First, we
emit the path to the source file as one `N_SO` symbol instead of two. (`ld64`
emits one `N_SO` for the dirname and one of the basename.) Second, we do not
emit `N_BNSYM` and `N_ENSYM` STABS to mark the start and end of functions,
because the `N_FUN` STABS already serve that purpose. @clayborg recommended
these changes based on his knowledge of what the debugging tools look for.
Additionally, this current implementation doesn't accurately reflect the size
of function symbols. It uses the size of their containing sectioins as a proxy,
but that is only accurate if `.subsections_with_symbols` is set, and if there
isn't an `N_ALT_ENTRY` in that particular subsection. I think we have two
options to solve this:
1. We can split up subsections by symbol even if `.subsections_with_symbols`
is not set, but include constraints to ensure those subsections retain
their order in the final output. This is `ld64`'s approach.
2. We could just add a `size` field to our `Symbol` class. This seems simpler,
and I'm more inclined toward it, but I'm not sure if there are use cases
that it doesn't handle well. As such I'm punting on the decision for now.

resolution is complete, the linker converts them to regular defined symbols in
