This patch adds a dedicated class to keep track of each function's
layout. It also lays the groundwork for splitting functions into
multiple fragments (as opposed to a strict hot/cold split).

As we are moving towards support for multiple fragments, loops that
iterate over all basic blocks of a function, but do not depend on the
order of basic blocks in the final layout, should iterate over binary
functions directly, rather than the layout.
Eventually, all loops using the layout list should either iterate over
the function, or be aware of multiple layouts. This patch replaces
references to binary function's block layout with the binary function
itself where only little code changes are necessary.

When SplitFunctions pass adds a trampoline code for exception landing
pads (limited to shared objects), it may increase the size of the hot
fragment making it larger than the whole function pre-split. When this
happens, the pass reverts the splitting action by restoring the original
block order and marking all blocks hot.
However, if createEHTrampolines() added new blocks to the CFG and
modified invoke instructions, simply restoring the original block layout
will not suffice as the new CFG has more blocks.
For proper backout of the split, modify the original layout by merging
in trampoline blocks immediately before their matching targets. As a
result, the number of blocks increases, but the number of instructions
and the function size remains the same as pre-split.
Add an assertion for the number of blocks when updating a function
layout.

For test purposes, we want to split functions at a random split point
to be able to test different layouts without relying on the profile.
This patch introduces an option, that randomly chooses a split point
to partition blocks of a function into hot and cold regions.

The SplitFunctions pass does not distinguish between various splitting
modes anymore. This change updates the command line interface to
reflect this behavior by deprecating values passed to the
--split-function option.

Add functionality to allow splitting code with C++ exceptions in shared
libraries and PIEs. To overcome a limitation in exception ranges format,
for functions with fragments spanning multiple sections, add trampoline
landing pads in the same section as the corresponding throwing range.

Summary:
Refactor bolt/*/Passes to follow the braces rule for if/else/loop from
[LLVM Coding Standards](https://llvm.org/docs/CodingStandards.html).

Summary:
Switched members of BinaryFunction to ADT where it was possible and
made sense. As a result, the size of BinaryFunction on x86-64 Linux
reduced from 1624 bytes to 1448.

Summary:
Moves source files into separate components, and make explicit
component dependency on each other, so LLVM build system knows how to
build BOLT in BUILD_SHARED_LIBS=ON.

work on top of this change.
To achieve this, we create a new library to hold core IR files (most
classes beginning with Binary in their names), a new library to hold
Utils, some command line options shared across both RewriteInstance
and core IR files, a new library called Rewrite to hold most classes
concerned with running top-level functions coordinating the binary
rewriting process, and a new library called Profile to hold classes
dealing with profile reading and writing.
To remove the dependency from BinaryContext into X86-specific classes,
we do some refactoring on the BinaryContext constructor to receive a
reference to the specific backend directly from RewriteInstance. Then,
the dependency on X86 or AArch64-specific classes is transfered to the
Rewrite library. We can't have the Core library depend on targets
because targets depend on Core (which would create a cycle).
Files implementing the entry point of a tool are transferred to the
tools/ folder. All header files are transferred to the include/
folder. The src/ folder was renamed to lib/.
