Summary:
GNU nm (and other nm implementations, such as "go tool nm") prints an explicit "no symbols" message when an object file has no symbols. Currently llvm-nm just doesn't print anything. Adding an explicit "no symbols" message will allow llvm-nm to be used in place of nm: some scripts and build processes use `nm <file> | grep "no symbols"` as a test to see if a file has no symbols. It will also be more familiar to anyone used to nm.
That said, the format implemented here is slightly different, in that it doesn't print the tool name in the message (which IMHO is not useful to include).
Demo:
```
$ for nm in nm bin/llvm-nm ; do echo "nm implementation: $nm"; $nm /tmp/foo{1,2}.o; echo; done
nm implementation: nm
/tmp/foo1.o:
nm: /tmp/foo1.o: no symbols
/tmp/foo2.o:
0000000000000000 T foo2
nm implementation: bin/llvm-nm
/tmp/foo1.o:
no symbols
/tmp/foo2.o:
0000000000000000 T foo2
```

The %T lit expansion expands to a common directory shared between all the tests in the same directory, which is unexpected and unintuitive, and more importantly, it's been a source of subtle race conditions and flaky tests. In https://reviews.llvm.org/D35396, it was agreed that it would be best to simply ban %T and only keep %t, which is unique to each test. When a test needs a temporary directory, it can just create one using mkdir %t.
This patch removes %T in llvm.

Also, udpate the ~60 failing tests in the tree which did
not contain a valid datalayout.
This fixes PR31123. lld will be updated in a following patch,
immediately after this is committed.
