Changes :-
a) Functionality in InputGraph to insert Input elements at any position
b) Functionality in the Resolver to use nextFile
c) Move the functionality of assigning file ordinals to InputGraph
d) Changes all inputs to MemoryBuffers
e) Remove LinkerInput, InputFiles, ReaderArchive

In COFF, an undefined symbol can have up to one alternative name. If a symbol
is resolved by its regular name, then it's linked normally. If a symbol is not
found in any input files, all references to the regular name are resolved using
the alternative name. If the alternative name is not found, it's a link error.
This mechanism is called "weak externals".
To support this mechanism, I added a new member function fallback() to undefined
atom. If an undefined atom has the second name, fallback() returns a new undefined
atom that should be used instead of the original one to resolve undefines. If it
does not have the second name, the function returns nullptr.

Also change some local variable names: "ti" -> "context" and
"_targetInfo" -> "_context".

The major changes are:
1) LinkerOptions has been merged into TargetInfo
2) LinkerInvocation has been merged into Driver
3) Drivers no longer convert arguments into an intermediate (core) argument
list, but instead create a TargetInfo object and call setter methods on
it. This is only how in-process linking would work. That is, you can
programmatically set up a TargetInfo object which controls the linking.
4) Lots of tweaks to test suite to work with driver changes
5) Add the DarwinDriver
6) I heavily doxygen commented TargetInfo.h
Things to do after this patch is committed:
a) Consider renaming TargetInfo, given its new roll.
b) Consider pulling the list of input files out of TargetInfo. This will
enable in-process clients to create one TargetInfo the re-use it with
different input file lists.
c) Work out a way for Drivers to format the warnings and error done in
core linking.

ArrayRef<uint8_t>::equals(); lowers to a byte compare loop :(.
TODO: Figure out if we are getting hash collisions, or just have a lot of equal
content. Also test if crypto hashing the content instead of full compare is
better.

now Reader and Writer subclasses for each file format. Each Reader and
Writer subclass defines an "options" class which controls how that Reader
or Writer operates.

Add SharedLibraryFile and ArchiveLibraryFile subclasses of File.
Add command line options to lld-core to set various ResolverOptions settings
and added lots of test cases to verify the options work.

now issues errors directly. We need to factor that out later.
Rework how Darwin executable writer finds "main" atom. It now
adds to core linking an Atom which has a Reference to "main".

Redesign weak importing as can-be-null-at-runtime and can-be-null-at-build-time.
Add lots of test cases for all the above.
