Vedant Kumar 4624e83ce7 [Signal] Allow llvm clients to opt into one-shot SIGPIPE handling
Allow clients of the llvm library to opt-in to one-shot SIGPIPE
handling, instead of forcing them to undo llvm's SIGPIPE handler
registration (which is brittle).

The current behavior is preserved for all llvm-derived tools (except
lldb) by means of a default-`true` flag in the InitLLVM constructor.

This prevents "IO error" crashes in long-lived processes (lldb is the
motivating example) which both a) load llvm as a dynamic library and b)
*really* need to ignore SIGPIPE.

As llvm signal handlers can be installed when calling into libclang
(say, via RemoveFileOnSignal), thereby overriding a previous SIG_IGN for
SIGPIPE, there is no clean way to opt-out of "exit-on-SIGPIPE" in the
current model.

llvm/lib/Support/Unix README
===========================

This directory provides implementations of the lib/System classes that
are common to two or more variants of UNIX. For example, the directory
structure underneath this directory could look like this:

Unix           - only code that is truly generic to all UNIX platforms
  Posix        - code that is specific to Posix variants of UNIX
  SUS          - code that is specific to the Single Unix Specification
  SysV         - code that is specific to System V variants of UNIX

As a rule, only those directories actually needing to be created should be
created. Also, further subdirectories could be created to reflect versions of
the various standards. For example, under SUS there could be v1, v2, and v3
subdirectories to reflect the three major versions of SUS.
