It's more natural to use uint8_t * (std::byte needs C++17 and llvm has
too much uint8_t *) and most callers use uint8_t * instead of char *.
The functions are recently moved into `llvm::compression::zlib::`, so
downstream projects need to make adaption anyway.
* Refactor compression namespaces across the project, making way for a possible
introduction of alternatives to zlib compression.
Changes are as follows:
* Relocate the `llvm::zlib` namespace to `llvm::compression::zlib`.

Alternative to D125036. Implement R_RISCV_ALIGN relaxation so that we can handle
-mrelax object files (i.e. -mno-relax is no longer needed) and creates a
framework for future relaxation.
`relaxAux` is placed in a union with InputSectionBase::jumpInstrMod, storing
auxiliary information for relaxation. In the first pass, `relaxAux` is allocated.
The main data structure is `relocDeltas`: when referencing `relocations[i]`, the
actual offset is `r_offset - (i ? relocDeltas[i-1] : 0)`.
`relaxOnce` performs one relaxation pass. It computes `relocDeltas` for all text
section. Then, adjust st_value/st_size for symbols relative to this section
based on `SymbolAnchor`. `bytesDropped` is set so that `assignAddresses` knows
that the size has changed.
Run `relaxOnce` in the `finalizeAddressDependentContent` loop to wait for
convergence of text sections and other address dependent sections (e.g.
SHT_RELR). Note: extrating `relaxOnce` into a separate loop works for many cases
but has issues in some linker script edge cases.
After convergence, compute section contents: shrink the NOP sequence of each
R_RISCV_ALIGN as appropriate. Instead of deleting bytes, we run a sequence of
memcpy on the content delimitered by relocation locations. For R_RISCV_ALIGN let
the next memcpy skip the desired number of bytes. Section content computation is
parallelizable, but let's ensure the implementation is mature before
optimizations. Technically we can save a copy if we interleave some code with
`OutputSection::writeTo`, but let's not pollute the generic code (we don't have
templated relocation resolving, so using conditions can impose overhead to
non-RISCV.)
Tested:
`make ARCH=riscv CROSS_COMPILE=riscv64-linux-gnu- LLVM=1 defconfig all` built Linux kernel using -mrelax is bootable.
FreeBSD RISCV64 system using -mrelax is bootable.
bash/curl/firefox/libevent/vim/tmux using -mrelax works.

.zdebug is unlikely used any longer: gcc -gz switched from legacy
.zdebug to SHF_COMPRESSED with binutils 2.26 (2016), which has been
several years. clang 14 dropped -gz=zlib-gnu support. According to
Debian Code Search (`gz=zlib-gnu`), no project uses -gz=zlib-gnu.
Remove .zdebug support to (a) simplify code and (b) allow removal of llvm-mc's
--compress-debug-sections=zlib-gnu.
In case the old object file `a.o` uses .zdebug, run `objcopy --decompress-debug-sections a.o`

Similar to D119787 for PPC64.
A hidden undefined weak may change its binding to local before some
`isUndefinedWeak` code, so some `isUndefinedWeak` code needs to be changed to
`isUndefined`. The undefined non-weak case has been errored, so just using
`isUndefined` is fine.
The Linux kernel recently has a usage that a branch from 0xffff800008491ee0
references a hidden undefined weak symbol `vfio_group_set_kvm`.
It relies on the behavior that a branch to undefined weak resolving to the next
instruction, otherwise it'd see spurious relocation out of range errors.

Two code paths may reach the EHFrame case in SectionBase::getOffset:
* .eh_frame reference
* relocation copy for --emit-relocs
The first may be used by clang_rt.crtbegin.o and GCC crtbeginT.o to get the
start address of the output .eh_frame. The relocation has an offset of 0 or
(x86-64 PC-relative leaq for clang_rt.crtbegin.o) -4. The current code just
returns `offset`, which handles this case well.
The second is related to InputSection::copyRelocations on .eh_frame (used by
--emit-relocs). .eh_frame pieces may be dropped due to GC/ICF, so we should
convert the input offset to the output offset. Use the same way as
MergeInputSection with a special case handling outSecOff==-1 for an invalid
piece (see eh-frame-marker.s).
This exposes an issue in mips64-eh-abs-reloc.s that we don't reliably
handle anyway. Just add --no-check-dynamic-relocations to paper over it.

Combined with the previous change, lld executable is ~2K smaller and some code
paths using InputSection::getParent are more efficient.
The fragmented headers lead to a design limitation that OutputSection has to be
incomplete, so we cannot use static_cast.
ObjFile::parse combines symbol initialization and resolution. Many tasks
unrelated to symbol resolution can be postponed and parallelized. This patch
extracts local symbol initialization and parallelizes it.
Technically the new function initializeLocalSymbols can be merged into
ObjFile::postParse, but functions like getSrcMsg may access the
uninitialized (all nullptr) local part of InputFile::symbols.

In many call sites we know uncompression cannot happen (non-SHF_ALLOC, or the
data (even if compressed) must have been uncompressed by a previous pass).
Prefer rawData in these cases. data() increases code size and prevents
optimization on rawData.

Fix a regression after aabe901d57 (`[ELF] Remove
one redundant computeBinding`): isLocal() does not indicate that the symbol is
originally local. For simplicity, just drop this optimization.
Move all variables at file-scope or function-static-scope into a hosting structure (lld::CommonLinkerContext) that lives at lldMain()-scope. Drivers will inherit from this structure and add their own global state, in the same way as for the existing COFFLinkerContext.

This extends D81784. Sections can be discarded when linking a
relocatable output. Before the patch, LLD did not update the content
of debug sections and only replaced the corresponding relocations with
R_*_NONE, which could break the debug information.

We only support both TLSDESC and TLS GD for x86 so this is an x86-specific
problem. If both are used, only one R_X86_64_TLSDESC is produced and TLS GD
accesses will incorrectly reference R_X86_64_TLSDESC. Fix this by introducing
SymbolAux::tlsDescIdx.

It is fairly easy to forget SectionBase::repl after ICF.
Let ICF rewrite a Defined symbol's `section` field to avoid references to
SectionBase::repl in subsequent passes. This slightly improves the --icf=none
performance due to less indirection (maybe for --icf={safe,all} as well if most
symbols are Defined).
With this change, there is only one reference to `repl` (--gdb-index D89751).
We can undo f4fb5fd752 (`Move Repl to SectionBase.`)
but move `repl` to `InputSection` instead.

I added `PPC32Got2Section` D62464 to support .got2 but did not implement .got2
in another output section.
PR52799 has a linker script placing .got2 in .rodata, which causes a null
pointer dereference because a MergeSyntheticSection's file is nullptr.
