Reid Kleckner ac2226b0f5 [PDB] Improve error handling when writes fail
Handle PDB writing errors like any other error in LLD: emit an error and
continue. This allows the linker to print timing data and summary data
after linking, which can be helpful for finding PDB size problems. Also
report how large the file would have been.

Example output:

lld-link: error: Output data is larger than 4 GiB. File size would have been 6,937,108,480
lld-link: error: failed to write PDB file ./chrome.dll.pdb
