Some records point to an LF_CLASS, LF_UNION, LF_STRUCTURE, or LF_ENUM
which is a forward reference and doesn't contain complete debug
information. In these cases, we'd like to be able to quickly locate the
full record. The TPI stream stores an array of pre-computed record hash
values, one for each type record. If we pre-process this on startup, we
can build a mapping from hash value -> {list of possible matching type
indices}. Since hashes of full records are only based on the name and or
unique name and not the full record contents, we can then use forward
ref record to compute the hash of what *would* be the full record by
just hashing the name, use this to get the list of possible matches, and
iterate those looking for a match on name or unique name.
llvm-pdbutil is updated to resolve forward references for the purposes
of testing (plus it's just useful).

Summary:
This removes the CVTypeVisitor updater and verifier classes. They were
made dead by the minimal type dumping refactoring. Replace them with a
single function that takes a type record and produces a hash. Call this
from the minimal type dumper and compare the hash.
I also noticed that the microsoft-pdb reference repository uses a basic
CRC32 for records that aren't special. We already have an implementation
of that CRC ready to use, because it's used in COFF for ICF.
I'll make LLD call this hashing utility in a follow-up change. We might
also consider using this same hash in type stream merging, so that we
don't have to hash our records twice.
