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.

Summary:
This change builds upon D54989, which removes memory allocation from the
critical path of the profiling implementation. This also changes the API
for the profile collection service, to take ownership of the memory and
associated data structures per-thread.
The consolidation of the memory allocation allows us to do two things:
- Limits the amount of memory used by the profiling implementation,
associating preallocated buffers instead of allocating memory
on-demand.
- Consolidate the memory initialisation and cleanup by relying on the
buffer queue's reference counting implementation.
We find a number of places which also display some problematic
behaviour, including:
- Off-by-factor bug in the allocator implementation.
- Unrolling semantics in cases of "memory exhausted" situations, when
managing the state of the function call trie.
We also add a few test cases which verify our understanding of the
behaviour of the system, with important edge-cases (especially for
memory-exhausted cases) in the segmented array and profile collector
unit tests.
Depends on D54989.

Summary:
Prior to this change, we can run into situations where the TSC we're
getting when exiting a function is less than the TSC we got when
entering it. This would sometimes cause the counter for cumulative call
times overflow, which was erroneously also being stored as a signed
64-bit integer.
This change addresses both these issues while adding provisions for
tracking CPU migrations. We do this because moving from one CPU to
another doesn't guarantee that the timestamp counter for some
architectures aren't guaranteed to be synchronised. For the moment, we
leave the provisions there until we can update the data format to
include the counting of CPU migrations we can catch.
We update the necessary tests as well, ensuring that our expectations
for the cycle accounting to be met in case of counter wraparound.

Summary:
This change provides access to the file header even in the in-memory
buffer processing. This allows in-memory processing of the buffers to
also check the version, and the format, of the profile data.

Summary:
This is part of the larger XRay Profiling Mode effort.
This patch implements the wiring required to enable us to actually
select the `xray-profiling` mode, and install the handlers to start
measuring the time and frequency of the function calls in call stacks.
The current way to get the profile information is by working with the
XRay API to `__xray_process_buffers(...)`.
In subsequent changes we'll implement profile saving to files, similar
to how the FDR and basic modes operate, as well as means for converting
this format into those that can be loaded/visualised as flame graphs. We
will also be extending the accounting tool in LLVM to support
stack-based function call accounting.
We also continue with the implementation to support building small
histograms of latencies for the `FunctionCallTrie::Node` type, to allow
us to actually approximate the distribution of latencies per function.
Depends on D45758 and D46998.

Summary:
This is part of the larger XRay Profiling Mode effort.
This patch implements a centralised collector for `FunctionCallTrie`
instances, associated per thread. It maintains a global set of trie
instances which can be retrieved through the XRay API for processing
in-memory buffers (when registered). Future changes will include the
wiring to implement the actual profiling mode implementation.
This central service provides the following functionality:
* Posting a `FunctionCallTrie` associated with a thread, to the central
list of tries.
* Serializing all the posted `FunctionCallTrie` instances into
in-memory buffers.
* Resetting the global state of the serialized buffers and tries.
Depends on D45757.
