Currently obj2yaml always emits the `EntSize` property when `sh_entsize != 0`.
It is not correct. For example, for `SHT_DYNAMIC` section, `EntSize == 0`
is abnormal, while `sizeof(ELFT::Dyn)` is the expected default.
To reduce the output produces we should not dump default values.
yaml2obj tests that shows `sh_entsize` values produced are:
1) For `SHT_REL*` sections: `yaml2obj\ELF\reloc-sec-entry-size.yaml`
2) For `SHT_DYNAMIC`: `yaml2obj\ELF\dynamic-section.yaml`

We do not have tests that shows the current behavior.
It is needed for D76227 which changes the logic of dumping of `EntSize` fields.

`.rela.dyn` is a dynamic relocation section that normally has
no value in `sh_info` field.
The existent `elf-reladyn-section-shinfo.yaml` which tests this piece has issues:
1) It does not check the case when we have more than one `SHT_REL[A]`
section with `sh_info == 0` in the object. Because of this it did not catch the issue.
Currently we print an excessive "Info" field:
```
- Name: .rela.dyn
Type: SHT_RELA
EntSize: 0x0000000000000018
- Name: .rel.dyn
Type: SHT_REL
EntSize: 0x0000000000000010
Info: ' [1]'
```
2) It seems can be more generic. I've added a `rel-rela-section.yaml` instead.

Sometimes we need to dump an object and build it again from a YAML
description produced. The problem is that obj2yaml does not dump some
of sections, like string tables and symbol tables.
Because of that yaml2obj implicitly creates them and sections created
are not placed at their original locations. They are added to the end of a section list.
That makes a preparing test cases task harder than it can be.
This patch teaches obj2yaml to dump parts of allocatable SHT_STRTAB, SHT_SYMTAB
and SHT_DYNSYM sections to print placeholders for them.
This also allows to preserve usefull parameters, like virtual address.
Differential revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D74955
I've noticed that it is not convenient to create YAMLs from
binaries (using obj2yaml) that have to be test cases for obj2yaml
later (after applying yaml2obj).
The problem, for example is that obj2yaml emits "DynamicSymbols:"
key instead of .dynsym. It also does not create .dynstr.
And when a YAML document without explicitly defined .dynsym/.dynstr
is given to yaml2obj, we have issues:
1) These sections are placed after non-allocatable sections (I've fixed it in D74756).
2) They have VA == 0. User needs create descriptions for such sections explicitly manually
to set a VA.
This patch addresses (2). I suggest to let yaml2obj assign virtual addresses by itself.
It makes an output binary to be much closer to "normal" ELF.
(It is still possible to use "Address: 0x0" for a section to get the original behavior
if it is needed)

The architecture enum contains two kinds of contstants: the "official" ones
defined by Microsoft, and unofficial constants added by breakpad to cover the
architectures not described by the first ones.
Up until now, there was no big need to differentiate between the two. However,
now that Microsoft has defined
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/win32/api/sysinfoapi/ns-sysinfoapi-system_info
a constant for ARM64, we have a name clash.
This patch renames all breakpad-defined constants with to include the prefix
"BP_". This frees up the name "ARM64", which I'll re-introduce with the new
"official" value in a follow-up patch.

Summary:
The implementation is fairly straight-forward and uses the same patterns
as the existing streams. The yaml form does not attempt to preserve the
data in the "gaps" that can be created by setting a larger-than-required
header or entry size in the stream header, because the existing consumer
(lldb) does not make use of the information in the gap in any way, and
attempting to preserve that would make the implementation more
complicated.

Currenly we can encode the 'st_other' field of symbol using 3 fields.
'Visibility' is used to encode STV_* values.
'Other' is used to encode everything except the visibility, but it can't handle arbitrary values.
'StOther' is used to encode arbitrary values when 'Visibility'/'Other' are not helpfull enough.
'st_other' field is used to encode symbol visibility and platform-dependent
flags and values. Problem to encode it is that it consists of Visibility part (STV_* values)
which are enumeration values and the Other part, which is different and inconsistent.
For MIPS the Other part contains flags for all STO_MIPS_* values except STO_MIPS_MIPS16.
(Like comment in ELFDumper says: "Someones in their infinite wisdom decided to make
STO_MIPS_MIPS16 flag overlapped with other ST_MIPS_xxx flags."...)
And for PPC64 the Other part might actually encode any value.
This patch implements custom logic for handling the st_other and removes
'Visibility' and 'StOther' fields.
Here is an example of a new YAML style this patch allows:
- Name: foo
Other: [ 0x4 ]
- Name: bar
Other: [ STV_PROTECTED, 4 ]
- Name: zed
Other: [ STV_PROTECTED, STO_MIPS_OPTIONAL, 0xf8 ]

In some cases a symbol might have section index == SHN_XINDEX.
This is an escape value indicating that the actual section header index
is too large to fit in the containing field.
Then the SHT_SYMTAB_SHNDX section is used. It contains the 32bit values
that stores section indexes.
ELF gABI says that there can be multiple SHT_SYMTAB_SHNDX sections,
i.e. for example one for .symtab and one for .dynsym

(2) DT_SYMTAB_SHNDX: http://www.sco.com/developers/gabi/latest/ch5.dynamic.html
In this patch I am only supporting a single SHT_SYMTAB_SHNDX associated
with a .symtab. This is a more or less common case which is used a few tests I saw in LLVM.
I decided not to create the SHT_SYMTAB_SHNDX section as "implicit",
but implement is like a kind of regular section for now.
i.e. tools do not recreate this section or its content, like they do for
symbol table sections, for example. That should allow to write all kind of
possible broken test cases for our needs and keep the output closer to requested.

There are multiple yaml2obj-* tests in llvm/test/Object
folder. This is not correct place to have them and my intention
was to move them out to test\tools\yaml2obj folder. I reviewed
them, made some changes, and my comments are below.
For all tests I:
Added comments when needed.
Moved them from llvm/test/Object to yaml2obj tests.
Another changes performed:
1) yaml2obj-invalid.yaml. It was a test for an invalid YAML input.
I just moved it.
2) yaml2obj-coff-multi-doc.test/yaml2obj-elf-multi-doc.test:
these were a tests for testing --docnum=x functionality,
one was for COFF and one for ELF. I merged them into one.
3) yaml2obj-elf-bits-endian.test:
I removed its 4 YAML inputs (merged into the main test).
4) yaml2obj-readobj.test:
This file has a long history. It was added to check the
"parsing of header charactestics" initially. Then was used to test
how yaml2obj writes the relocations. Then was upgraded to check how
yaml2obj handle "-o" option. I think it should be heavily splitted
and refactored in a separate patch. For now I leaved it as is, but restyled
to reduce the changes in a follow-ups.
5) yaml2obj-elf-alignment.yaml: its intention was to check we
can set sh-addralign field. I moved, renamed (to elf-sh-addralign.yaml)
and updated this test.
6) yaml2obj-elf-file-headers.yaml: I removed it.
It's intention was to check that
yaml2obj handles OS/ABI and ELF type (e.g Relocatable).
We are testing this already, for example in D64800. We might want
to add a better (more complete) test, but keeping the existent test
does not have much sense I think.
7) yaml2obj-elf-file-headers-with-e_flags.yaml: I would describe its intention
as "testing MIPS e_flags". It is far from being complete and tests only
a few flags. I leaved it alone for now.
8) yaml2obj-elf-rel.yaml: its intention is to check the MIPS32 relocations.
We have a version for MIPS64 here: test\Object\Mips\elf-mips64-rel.yaml
Seems them both are incomplete. I leaved them alone for now.
9) yaml2obj-elf-rel-noref.yaml: was introduced to check the support of arm32
R_ARM_V4BX relocatiion. I leaved it alone for now.
10) yaml2obj-elf-section-basic.yaml: it just checked that we are able to recognise
trivial fields like section 'Name', 'Type', 'Flags' and others. All of our yaml2obj
tests are heavily using it. I just removed this test.
11) yaml2obj-elf-section-invalid-size.yaml: its intention was to check the
"Section size must be greater than or equal to the content size" error.
I moved this test to `tools\yaml2obj\section-size-content.yaml'
12) yaml2obj-elf-symbol-basic.yaml: its intention seems was to support declarations
of the symbols in yaml2obj. I removed it. We use this in almost each test we already have.
13) yaml2obj-elf-symbol-LocalGlobalWeak.yaml: its intention was to check that we can
declare different symbol bindings. I moved it to tools\yaml2obj\elf-symbol-binding.yaml.
14) yaml2obj-coff-invalid-alignment.test: check that error is reported for a too large coff
section alignment. Moved it to tools\yaml2obj\coff-invalid-alignment.test
15) yaml2obj-elf-symbol-visibility.yaml: tests ELF symbols visibility. I improved it and
moved to tools\yaml2obj\elf-symbol-visibility.yaml and tools\obj2yaml\elf-symbol-visibility.yaml

No changes, LLD code was updated in r366057.
Original commit message:
ELF.h contains two getSymbol methods
which seems to be used only from obj2yaml.
One of these methods calls another, which in turn
contains untested error message which doesn't
provide enough information.
Problem is that after improving only just that message,
obj2yaml will not show it,
("Error reading file: yaml: Invalid data was
encountered while parsing the file" message will be shown instead),
because internal errors handling of tool is based on ErrorOr<> class which
stores a error code and as a result can only show a predefined error string, what
actually isn't very useful.
In this patch, I rework obj2yaml's error reporting system
for ELF targets to use Error Expected<> classes.
Also, I improve the error message produced
by getSymbol for demonstration of the new functionality.
