This flag does not exist in GNU objcopy but has a major use case.
Debugging tools support the .build-id directory structure to find
debug binaries. There is no easy way to build this structure up
however. One way to do it is by using llvm-readelf and some crazy
shell magic. This implements the feature directly. It is most often
the case that you'll want to strip a file and send the original to
the .build-id directory but if you just want to send a file to the
.build-id directory you can copy to /dev/null instead.

Summary: The original intention of !Config.xx.empty() was probably to emphasize the thing that is currently considered, but I feel the simplified form is actually easier to understand and it is also consistent with the call sites in other llvm components.

Summary:
llvm-objcopy/strip support `--keep` (for sections) and `--keep-symbols` (for symbols). For consistency and clarity, rename `--keep` to `--keep-section`.
In fact, for GNU compatability, -K is --keep-symbol, so it's weird that the alias `-K` is not the same as the short-ish `--keep`.

Summary:
GNU strip supports both `-s` and `-S` as aliases for `--strip-all` and `--strip-debug`, respectfully.
As part of this, it turns out that strip/objcopy were accepting case insensitive command line args. I'm not sure if there was an explicit reason for this. The only others uses of this are llvm-cvtres/llvm-mt/llvm-lib, which are all tools specific for windows support. Forcing case sensitivity allows both aliases to exist, but seems like a good idea anyway.
And as a surprise test case adjustment, the llvm-strip unit test was running with `-keep=unavailable_symbol`, despite `keep` not be a valid flag for strip. This is because there is a flag `-K` which, when case insensitivity is permitted, allows it to be interpreted as `-K` = `eep=unavailable_symbol` (e.g. to allow `-Kfoo` == `--keep-symbol=foo`).

Summary:
This change adds support for the GNU --target flag, which sets both --input-target and --output-target.
GNU objcopy doesn't do any checking for whether both --target and --{input,output}-target are used, and so it allows both, e.g. "--target A --output-target B" is equivalent to "--input-target A --output-target B" since the later command line flag would override earlier ones. This may be error prone, so I chose to implement it as an error if both are used. I'm not sure if anyone is actually using both.

Submitted on behalf of Armando Montanez (amontanez@google.com).
Objects with unused program headers copied by objcopy would always have
nonzero values for program header offset and program header entry size.
While technically valid, this atypical behavior triggers warnings in some
tools. This change sets the two fields to zero when the program header is
unused, better fitting the general expectations for unused program header
data.
Section headers behaved somewhat similarly (though only with the entry size),
and are fixed in this revision as well.

Third Attempt:
- Alignment issues resolved.
- zlib::isAvailable() detected.
- ArrayRef misuse fixed.
Usage:
llvm-objcopy --compress-debug-sections=zlib foo.o
llvm-objcopy --compress-debug-sections=zlib-gnu foo.o
In both cases the debug section contents is compressed with zlib. In the GNU
style case the header is the "ZLIB" magic string followed by the uint64 big-
endian decompressed size. In the non-GNU mode the header is the
Elf(32|64)_Chdr.
Decompression support is coming soon.

Summary:
Allow strip to be called on multiple input files, which is interpreted as stripping N files in place. Using multiple input files is incompatible with -o.
To allow this, create a `DriverConfig` struct which just wraps a list of `CopyConfigs`. objcopy will only ever have a single `CopyConfig`, but strip will have N (where N >= 1) CopyConfigs.

The restoreDateOnFile() method used to preserve dates uses sys::fs::openFileForWrite(). That method defaults to opening files with CD_CreateAlways, which truncates the output file if it exists. Use CD_OpenExisting instead to open it and *not* truncate it, which also has the side benefit of erroring if the file does not exist (it should always exist, because we just wrote it out).
Also, fix the test case to make sure the output is a valid output file, and not empty. The extra test assertions are enough to catch this regression.

Summary:
Port GNU Objcopy -G/--keep-global-symbol(s).
This is slightly different than the already-implemented --globalize-symbol, which marks a symbol as global when copying. When --keep-global-symbol (alias -G) is used, *only* those symbols marked will stay global, and all other globals are demoted to local. (Also note that it doesn't *promote* a symbol to global). Additionally, there is a pluralized version of the flag --keep-global-symbols, which effectively applies --keep-global-symbol for every non-comment in a file.

Summary:
The -I (--input-target) and -B (--binary-architecture) flags exist but are currently silently ignored. This adds support for -I binary for architectures i386, x86-64 (and alias i386:x86-64), arm, aarch64, sparc, and ppc (powerpc:common64). This is largely based on D41687.
This is done by implementing an additional subclass of Reader, BinaryReader, which works by interpreting the input file as contents for .data field, sets up a synthetic header, and adds additional sections/symbols (e.g. _binary__tmp_data_txt_start).
