Use the llvm flag `-pgo-function-entry-coverage` to create single byte "counters" to track functions coverage. This mode has significantly less size overhead in both code and data because
* We mark a function as "covered" with a store instead of an increment which generally requires fewer assembly instructions
* We use a single byte per function rather than 8 bytes per block
The trade off of course is that this mode only tells you if a function has been covered. This is useful, for example, to detect dead code.
When combined with debug info correlation [0] we are able to create an instrumented Clang binary that is only 150M (the vanilla Clang binary is 143M). That is an overhead of 7M (4.9%) compared to the default instrumentation (without value profiling) which has an overhead of 31M (21.7%).

Existing code tended to assume that counters had type `uint64_t` and
computed size from the number of counters. Fix this code to directly
compute the counters size in number of bytes where possible. When the
number of counters is needed, use `__llvm_profile_counter_entry_size()`
or `getCounterTypeSize()`. In a later diff these functions will depend
on the profile mode.
Change the meaning of `DataSize` and `CountersSize` to make them more clear.
* `DataSize` (`CountersSize`) - the size of the data (counter) section in bytes.
* `NumData` (`NumCounters`) - the number of data (counter) entries.

Profile merging is not supported when using debug info profile
correlation because the data section won't be in the binary at runtime.
Change the default profile name in this mode to `default_%p.proflite` so
we don't use profile merging.

Add the llvm flag `-debug-info-correlate` to attach debug info to instrumentation counters so we can correlate raw profile data to their functions. Raw profiles are dumped as `.proflite` files. The next diff enables `llvm-profdata` to consume `.proflite` and debug info files to produce a normal `.profdata` profile.

The INSTR_PROF_RAW_MAGIC_* number in profraw files should match during
profile merging. This causes an error with 32-bit and 64-bit variants
of the same code. The module signatures for the two binaries are
identical but they use different INSTR_PROF_RAW_MAGIC_* causing a
failure when profile-merging is used. Including it when computing the
module signature yields different signatures for the 32-bit and 64-bit
profiles.

This fixes support for merging profiles which broke as a consequence
of e50a38840d. The issue was missing
adjustment in merge logic to account for the binary IDs which are
now included in the raw profile just after header.
In addition, this change also:
* Includes the version in module signature that's used for merging
to avoid accidental attempts to merge incompatible profiles.
* Moves the binary IDs size field after version field in the header
as was suggested in the review.

Change `CountersPtr` in `__profd_` to a label difference, which is a link-time
constant. On ELF, when linking a shared object, this requires that `__profc_` is
either private or linkonce/linkonce_odr hidden. On COFF, we need D104564 so that
`.quad a-b` (64-bit label difference) can lower to a 32-bit PC-relative relocation.
```
# ELF: R_X86_64_PC64 (PC-relative)
.quad .L__profc_foo-.L__profd_foo
# Mach-O: a pair of 8-byte X86_64_RELOC_UNSIGNED and X86_64_RELOC_SUBTRACTOR
.quad l___profc_foo-l___profd_foo
# COFF: we actually use IMAGE_REL_AMD64_REL32/IMAGE_REL_ARM64_REL32 so
# the high 32-bit value is zero even if .L__profc_foo < .L__profd_foo
# As compensation, we truncate CountersDelta in the header so that
# __llvm_profile_merge_from_buffer and llvm-profdata reader keep working.
.quad .L__profc_foo-.L__profd_foo
```
(Note: link.exe sorts `.lprfc` before `.lprfd` even if the object writer
has `.lprfd` before `.lprfc`, so we cannot work around by reordering
`.lprfc` and `.lprfd`.)
With this change, a stage 2 (`-DLLVM_TARGETS_TO_BUILD=X86 -DLLVM_BUILD_INSTRUMENTED=IR`)
`ld -pie` linked clang is 1.74% smaller due to fewer R_X86_64_RELATIVE relocations.
```
% readelf -r pie | awk '$3~/R.*/{s[$3]++} END {for (k in s) print k, s[k]}'
R_X86_64_JUMP_SLO 331
R_X86_64_TPOFF64 2
R_X86_64_RELATIVE 476059 # was: 607712
R_X86_64_64 2616
R_X86_64_GLOB_DAT 31
```
The absolute function address (used by llvm-profdata to collect indirect call
targets) can be converted to relative as well, but is not done in this patch.

to reflect the new license.
We understand that people may be surprised that we're moving the header
entirely to discuss the new license. We checked this carefully with the
Foundation's lawyer and we believe this is the correct approach.
Essentially, all code in the project is now made available by the LLVM
project under our new license, so you will see that the license headers
include that license only. Some of our contributors have contributed
code under our old license, and accordingly, we have retained a copy of
our old license notice in the top-level files in each project and
repository.

This patch fixes the following issues:
(1) The strong definition of the merge hook function was not working which
breaks the online value profile merging. This patch removes the weak
attribute of VPMergeHook and assigns the value dynamically.
(2) Truncate the proifle file so that we don't have garbage data at the end of
the file.
(3) Add new __llvm_profile_instrument_target_value() interface to do the value
profile update in batch. This is needed as the original incremental by 1
in __llvm_profile_instrument_target() is too slow for online merge.
