Summary: This patch adds support for including a full reference graph including call graph edges and other GV references in the summary. The reference graph edges can be used to make importing decisions without materializing any source modules, can be used in the plugin to make file staging decisions for distributed build systems, and is expected to have other uses. The call graph edges are recorded in each function summary in the bitcode via a list of <CalleeValueIds, StaticCount> tuples when no PGO data exists, or <CalleeValueId, StaticCount, ProfileCount> pairs when there is PGO, where the ValueId can be mapped to the function GUID via the ValueSymbolTable. In the function index in memory, the call graph edges reference the target via the CalleeGUID instead of the CalleeValueId. The reference graph edges are recorded in each summary record with a list of referenced value IDs, which can be mapped to value GUID via the ValueSymbolTable. Addtionally, a new summary record type is added to record references from global variable initializers. A number of bitcode records and data structures have been renamed to reflect the newly expanded scope of the summary beyond functions. More cleanup will follow.

The LLVM Gold LTO Plugin ======================== This directory contains a plugin that is designed to work with binutils gold linker. At present time, this is not the default linker in binutils, and the default build of gold does not support plugins. See docs/GoldPlugin.html for complete build and usage instructions. NOTE: libLTO and LLVMgold aren't built without PIC because they would fail to link on x86-64 with a relocation error: PIC and non-PIC can't be combined. As an alternative to passing --enable-pic, you can use 'make ENABLE_PIC=1' in your entire LLVM build.
