Summary:
Currently the FDR log writer, upon flushing, dumps a sequence of buffers from
its freelist to disk. A reader can read the first buffer up to an EOB record,
but then it is unclear how far ahead to scan to find the next threads traces.
There are a few ways to handle this problem.
1. The reader has externalized knowledge of the buffer size.
2. The size of buffers is in the file header or otherwise encoded in the log.
3. Only write out the portion of the buffer with records. When released, the
buffers are marked with a size.
4. The reader looks for memory that matches a pattern and synchronizes on it.
2 and 3 seem the most flexible and 2 does not rule 3 out.
This is an implementation of 2.
In addition, the function handler for fdr more aggressively checks for
finalization and makes an attempt to release its buffer.

Instead of std::atomic APIs for atomic operations, we instead use APIs
include with sanitizer_common. This allows us to, at runtime, not have
to depend on potentially dynamically provided implementations of these
atomic operations.
Fixes http://llvm.org/PR32274.

Summary:
Depending on C++11 <system_error> introduces a link-time requirement to
C++11 symbols. Removing it allows us to depend on header-only C++11 and
up libraries.
Partially fixes http://llvm.org/PR32274 -- we know there's more invasive work
to be done, but we're doing it incrementally.

Summary:
In this change we introduce the notion of a "flight data recorder" mode
for XRay logging, where XRay logs in-memory first, and write out data
on-demand as required (as opposed to the naive implementation that keeps
logging while tracing is "on"). This depends on D26232 where we
implement the core data structure for holding the buffers that threads
will be using to write out records of operation.
This implementation only currently works on x86_64 and depends heavily
on the TSC math to write out smaller records to the inmemory buffers.
Also, this implementation defines two different kinds of records with
different sizes (compared to the current naive implementation): a
MetadataRecord (16 bytes) and a FunctionRecord (8 bytes). MetadataRecord
entries are meant to write out information like the thread ID for which
the metadata record is defined for, whether the execution of a thread
moved to a different CPU, etc. while a FunctionRecord represents the
different kinds of function call entry/exit records we might encounter
in the course of a thread's execution along with a delta from the last
time the logging handler was called.
While this implementation is not exactly what is described in the
original XRay whitepaper, this one gives us an initial implementation
that we can iterate and build upon.

This implements a simple buffer queue to manage a pre-allocated queue of
fixed-sized buffers to hold XRay records. We need this to support
Flight Data Recorder (FDR) mode. We also implement this as a sub-library
first to allow for development before actually using it in an
implementation.
Some important properties of the buffer queue:
- Thread-safe enqueueing/dequeueing of fixed-size buffers.
- Pre-allocation of buffers at construction.
This is a re-roll of the previous attempt to submit, because it caused
failures in arm and aarch64.
