If `CMAKE_INSTALL_BINDIR` is a different absolute path per project, as
it is with NixOS when we install every package to its own prefix, the
old way fails when the absolute path gets prepended.
There are still some issues with dowstream packages using `LLVM_TOOLS_INSTALL_DIR` which also may be absolute and just for LLVM proper, but that will be addressed in a future commit.

This is the original patch in my GNUInstallDirs series, now last to merge as the final piece!
It arose as a new draft of D28234. I initially did the unorthodox thing of pushing to that when I wasn't the original author, but since I ended up
- Using `GNUInstallDirs`, rather than mimicking it, as the original author was hesitant to do but others requested.
- Converting all the packages, not just LLVM, effecting many more projects than LLVM itself.
I figured it was time to make a new revision.
I have used this patch series (and many back-ports) as the basis of https://github.com/NixOS/nixpkgs/pull/111487 for my distro (NixOS), which was merged last spring (2021). It looked like people were generally on board in D28234, but I make note of this here in case extra motivation is useful.
---
As pointed out in the original issue, a central tension is that LLVM already has some partial support for these sorts of things. Variables like `COMPILER_RT_INSTALL_PATH` have already been dealt with. Variables like `LLVM_LIBDIR_SUFFIX` however, will require further work, so that we may use `CMAKE_INSTALL_LIBDIR`.
These remaining items will be addressed in further patches. What is here is now rote and so we should get it out of the way before dealing more intricately with the remainder.

This is the patch for LLVM proper in my series for adding GNUInstallDirs support in all project.
Additionally:
Create a new `CACHE STRING` variable, `LLVM_EXAMPLES_INSTALL_DIR`, to control where the examples are installed on analogy with the other variables.

This patch supersedes D28234, which tried to do the same thing but hand-rolled without GNUInstallDirs.
This patch nearly reverts commit 3 0fc88bf1dc15a72e2d9809d28019d386b7a7cc0, which was a revert of a prior attempt."
(I had to add a space here or else Phabricator detects a reference cycle and won't let me do the form submit.)

This reverts commit 492de35df4.
I tried to apply John's changes in 8d897ec915 that were expected to
fix his patch but that didn't work unfortunately.
Reverting this again to fix the macOS bots and leave him more time to
investigate the issue.
This reverts commit 797b50d4be.
See the original D99484. @mib who noticed the original problem could not longer
reproduce it, after I tried and also failed. We are threfore hoping it went
away on its own!

As pointed out in the original issue, a central tension is that LLVM
already has some partial support for these sorts of things. For example
`LLVM_LIBDIR_SUFFIX`, or `COMPILER_RT_INSTALL_PATH`. Because it's not
quite clear yet what to do about those, we are holding off on changing
libdirs and `compiler-rt`. for this initial PR.

On the advice of @lebedev.ri, I am splitting this up a bit per
subproject, starting with LLVM. To allow it to be more easily reviewed. This and the subsequent patch must be landed together, as this will not build alone. But the rest can be landed on their own.

Summary:
Specify message levels in CMake. Prefer STATUS (stdout).
As the default message mode (i.e. level) is NOTICE in CMake, more then necessary messages get printed to stderr. Some tools, noticably ccmake treat this as an error and require additional confirmation and re-running CMake's configuration step.
This commit specifies a mode (either STATUS or WARNING or FATAL_ERROR) instead of the default.
* I used `csearch -f 'llvm-project/.+(CMakeLists\.txt|cmake)' -l 'message\("'` to find all locations.
* Reviewers were chosen by the most common authors of specific files. If there are more suitable reviewers for these CMake changes, please let me know.

When cross-compiling for Windows on Unix, the built toolchain will need
to be transferred to Windows to actually run. My opinion is that the
Unix build should use symlinks, and the transfer to Windows should take
care of making those symlinks usable. E.g., I envision tarballs to be a
common form of transfer from Unix to Windows, in which case the tarball
can be created using --dereference to follow the symlinks.
The motivation here is that, when cross-compiling for Windows on Unix,
the installation will *already* create symlinks. The reason is that the
installation script will be invoked without knowing the host system, so
the `if(UNIX)` check in the installation symlink creation script will
reflect the build system rather than the host system. We could either
make the build and install trees both contain copies or both contain
symlinks, and using symlinks is a significant space saving without (in
my opinion) having any detrimental effect on the usage of the cross-
compiled toolchain on Windows.
A secondary motivation is that Windows 10 version 1703 and later finally
lift the administrator rights requirement for creating symbolic links
(if the system is in Developer Mode), which makes symlinks a lot more
practical even on Windows. Of course Unix and Windows symlinks aren't
interoperable, but symlinks for Windows toolchains is a reasonable
future direction to be going in anyway.

In order to resolve PR25059, we're going to need to be able to generate symlinks to libraries manually, so I need this code to be reusable.

In order to support building clang out-of-tree the install_symlink script needs to be installed, and it needs to be found by searching the CMAKE_MODULE_PATH.
This change renames install_symlink -> LLVMInstallSymlink so it doesn't conflict with naming from other projects, and adds searching behavior in AddLLVM.cmake
