Summary:
Normal behavior for GNU ar is to flatten thin archives when adding them to another thin archive, i.e. add the members directly instead of nesting the archive.
Some refactoring done as part of this patch to ease things:
- Consolidate `addMember`/`addLibMember` methods
- Rename `addMember` to `addChildMember` to make it more visibly different at the call site that an archive child is passed instead of a regular member
- Pass in a separate vector and splice it back into position instead of passing a vector + optional Pos (which makes expanding libs tricky)
This fixes PR37530 as raised by https://github.com/ClangBuiltLinux/linux/issues/279.

ADDLIB is called to add the contents of an archive to another archive.
Previously this was only accessible through the use of an MRI script.
With the use of a new "L" modifier, archive files can treated in the
manner above when using quick append.

This is helpful when extracting objects from archives produced by MSVC's
lib.exe, which users absolute paths to describe the archive members.

Normal archives do not have empty UID/GID fields. However, the Microsoft
Import library format is a customized archive (it just uses an alternate symbol
index format). When the import library is constructed by lib.exe, the UID and
GID fields are left empty. Do not abort on such an input.

Summary:
Our YAML library's handling of tags isn't perfect, but it is good enough to get rid of the need for the --format argument to yaml2obj. This patch does exactly that.
Instead of requiring --format, it infers the format based on the tags found in the object file. The supported tags are:
!ELF
!COFF
!mach-o
!fat-mach-o
I have a corresponding patch that is quite large that fixes up all the in-tree test cases.

This adds some tests for the smarter llvm-ar selection mode as well as some
additional tests as per Rafael's post commit review comments.
