When there are no section headers section information printed by llvm-readelf is not useful and unnecessarily verbose. When there are no program headers there's a similar verbose output shown when section mapping is requested. Simplifying the message shown in these cases to match the behavior of `GNU binuntils readelf`.

This patch drops the prefix `PT_RISCV_` when dumping `PT_RISCV_ATTRIBUTES`.
GNU readelf dumps it as `RISCV_ATTRIBUT`. Because GNU readelf uses
something like `%-14.14s` so only the first 14 bytes are printed.

This is a resurrection of D106421 with the change that it keeps backward-compatibility. This means decoding the previous version of `LLVM_BB_ADDR_MAP` will work. This is required as the profile mapping tool is not released with LLVM (AutoFDO). As suggested by @jhenderson we rename the original section type value to `SHT_LLVM_BB_ADDR_MAP_V0` and assign a new value to the `SHT_LLVM_BB_ADDR_MAP` section type. The new encoding adds a version byte to each function entry to specify the encoding version for that function. This patch also adds a feature byte to be used with more flexibility in the future. An use-case example for the feature field is encoding multi-section functions more concisely using a different format.
Conceptually, the new encoding emits basic block offsets and sizes as label differences between each two consecutive basic block begin and end label. When decoding, offsets must be aggregated along with basic block sizes to calculate the final offsets of basic blocks relative to the function address.
This encoding uses smaller values compared to the existing one (offsets relative to function symbol).
Smaller values tend to occupy fewer bytes in ULEB128 encoding. As a result, we get about 17% total reduction in the size of the bb-address-map section (from about 11MB to 9MB for the clang PGO binary).
The extra two bytes (version and feature fields) incur a small 3% size overhead to the `LLVM_BB_ADDR_MAP` section size.

This patch implements PAC return address signing for armv8-m. This patch roughly
accomplishes the following things:
- PAC and AUT instructions are generated.
- They're part of the stack frame setup, so that shrink-wrapping can move them
inwards to cover only part of a function
- The auth code generated by PAC is saved across subroutine calls so that AUT
can find it again to check
- PAC is emitted before stacking registers (so that the SP it signs is the one
on function entry).
- The new pseudo-register ra_auth_code is mentioned in the DWARF frame data
- With CMSE also in use: PAC is emitted before stacking FPCXTNS, and AUT
validates the corresponding value of SP
- Emit correct unwind information when PAC is replaced by PACBTI
- Handle tail calls correctly
Some notes:
We make the assembler accept the `.save {ra_auth_code}` directive that is
emitted by the compiler when it saves a register that contains a
return address authentication code.
For EHABI we need to have the `FrameSetup` flag on the instruction and
handle the `t2PACBTI` opcode (identically to `t2PAC`), so we can emit
`.save {ra_auth_code}`, instead of `.save {r12}`.
For PACBTI-M, the instruction which computes return address PAC should use SP
value before adjustment for the argument registers save are (used for variadic
functions and when a parameter is is split between stack and register), but at
the same it should be after the instruction that saves FPCXT when compiling a
CMSE entry function.
This patch moves the varargs SP adjustment after the FPCXT save (they are never
enabled at the same time), so in a following patch handling of the `PAC`
instruction can be placed between them.
Epilogue emission code adjusted in a similar manner.
PACBTI-M code generation should not emit any instructions for architectures
v6-m, v8-m.base, and for A- and R-class cores. Diagnostic message for such cases
is handled separately by a future ticket.
note on tail calls:
If the called function has four arguments that occupy registers `r0`-`r3`, the
only option for holding the function pointer itself is `r12`, but this register
is used to keep the PAC during function/prologue epilogue and clobbers the
function pointer.
When we do the tail call we need the five registers (`r0`-`r3` and `r12`) to
keep six values - the four function arguments, the function pointer and the PAC,
which is obviously impossible.
One option would be to authenticate the return address before all callee-saved
registers are restored, so we have a scratch register to temporarily keep the
value of `r12`. The issue with this approach is that it violates a fundamental
invariant that PAC is computed using CFA as a modifier. It would also mean using
separate instructions to pop `lr` and the rest of the callee-saved registers,
which would offset the advantages of doing a tail call.
Instead, this patch disables indirect tail calls when the called function take
four or more arguments and the return address sign and authentication is enabled
for the caller function, conservatively assuming the caller function would spill
LR.
This patch is part of a series that adds support for the PACBTI-M extension of

This is a follow up to https://reviews.llvm.org/D104080, and ca3bdb57fa (diff-e64a48fabe31db213a631fdc5f2acb51bdddf3f16a8fb2928784f4c579229585). The implementation of call graph profile was changed from a black box section to relocation approach. This was done to be compatible with post processing tools like strip/objcopy, and llvm equivalent. When they are invoked on object file before the final linking step with this new approach the symbol indices correctness is preserved.
The GNU binutils tools change the REL section to RELA section, unlike llvm tools. For example when strip -S is run on the ELF object files, as an intermediate step before linking. To preserve compatibility this patch extends implementation in LLD and ELFDumper to support both REL and RELA sections for call graph profile.

This patch tries to handle this issue. So while handling fixup_si_sopp_br fixup in getRelocType, if the target label is undefined we issue an error as before. If it is defined, a new relocation type R_AMDGPU_REL16 is returned.

Users should generally observe no difference as long as they don't use
unintended option forms. Behavior changes:
* `-t=d` is removed. Use `-t d` instead.
* `--demangle=false` and `--demangle=0` cannot be used. Omit the option or use `--no-demangle`. Other flag-style options don't have `--no-` forms.
* `--help-list` is removed. This is a `cl::` specific option.
* llvm-readobj now supports grouped short options as well.
* `--color` is removed. This is generally not useful (only apply to errors/warnings) but was inherited from Support.
Some adjustment to the canonical forms
(usually from GNU readelf; currently llvm-readobj has too many redundant aliases):
* --dyn-syms is canonical. --dyn-symbols is a hidden alias
* --file-header is canonical. --file-headers is a hidden alias
* --histogram is canonical. --elf-hash-histogram is a hidden alias
* --relocs is canonical. --relocations is a hidden alias
* --section-groups is canonical. --elf-section-groups is a hidden alias
OptTable avoids global option collision if we decide to support multiplexing for binary utilities.
* Most one-dash long options are still supported. `-dt, -sd, -st, -sr` are dropped due to their conflict with grouped short options.
* `--section-mapping=false` (D57365) is strange but is kept for now.
* Many `cl::opt` variables were unnecessarily external. I added `static` whenever appropriate.

llvm-readelf was created as a user-facing utility and its interface intends to
be compatible with GNU readelf (unless there are good reasons not to).
The two tools have mostly compatible options. -s and -t are noticeable
exceptions due to history. I think the cost of keeping the inconsistency
overweighs the little history-compatible benefit and hinders transition from
cl::opt to OptTable, so let's change it.

... even on targets preferring RELA. The section is only consumed by ld.lld
which can handle REL.
Follow-up to D104080 as I explained in the review. There are two advantages:
* The D104080 code only handles RELA, so arm/i386/mips32 etc may warn for -fprofile-use=/-fprofile-sample-use= usage.
* Decrease object file size for RELA targets
While here, change the relocation to relocate weights, instead of 0,1,2,3,..
I failed to catch the issue during review.
Currently when .llvm.call-graph-profile is created by llvm it explicitly encodes the symbol indices. This section is basically a black box for post processing tools. For example, if we run strip -s on the object files the symbol table changes, but indices in that section do not. In non-visible behavior indices point to wrong symbols. The visible behavior indices point outside of Symbol table: "invalid symbol index".
This patch changes the format by using R_*_NONE relocations to indicate the from/to symbols. The Frequency (Weight) will still be in the .llvm.call-graph-profile, but symbol information will be in relocation section. In LLD information from both sections is used to reconstruct call graph profile. Relocations themselves will never be applied.
With this approach post processing tools that handle relocations correctly work for this section also. Tools can add/remove symbols and as long as they handle relocation sections with this approach information stays correct.
Doing a quick experiment with clang-13.
The size went up from 107KB to 322KB, aggregate of all the input sections. Size of clang-13 binary is ~118MB. For users of -fprofile-use/-fprofile-sample-use the size of object files will go up slightly, it will not impact final binary size.
