Since DWARFv5 rnglists are self descriptive and have distinct encodings
for base-relative (offset_pair) and absolute (start_length) entries,
there's no need to use a base address specifier when describing a lone
address range in a section.
Use that, and improve the test coverage a bit here to include cases like
this and others.

In order to set breakpoints on labels and list source code around
labels, we need collect debug information for labels, i.e., label
name, the function label belong, line number in the file, and the
address label located. In order to keep these information in LLVM
IR and to allow backend to generate debug information correctly.
We create a new kind of metadata for labels, DILabel. The format
of DILabel is
!DILabel(scope: !1, name: "foo", file: !2, line: 3)
We hope to keep debug information as much as possible even the
code is optimized. So, we create a new kind of intrinsic for label
metadata to avoid the metadata is eliminated with basic block.
The intrinsic will keep existing if we keep it from optimized out.
The format of the intrinsic is
llvm.dbg.label(metadata !1)
It has only one argument, that is the DILabel metadata. The
intrinsic will follow the label immediately. Backend could get the
label metadata through the intrinsic's parameter.
We also create DIBuilder API for labels to be used by Frontend.
Frontend could use createLabel() to allocate DILabel objects, and use
insertLabel() to insert llvm.dbg.label intrinsic in LLVM IR.

Chromium's gold build seems to have trouble with this (gold produces
errors) - not sure if it's gold that's not coping with the valid
representation, or a bug in the implementation in LLVM, etc.

Missed the resetting base address selections when going from a base
address version to zero base address for non-base-addressed entries.

(from comments in the test)
Group ranges in a range list that apply to the same section and use a base
address selection entry to reduce the number of relocations to one reloc per
section per range list. DWARF5 debug_rnglist will be more efficient than this
in terms of relocations, but it's still better than one reloc per entry in a
range list.
This is an object/executable size tradeoff - shrinking objects, but growing
the linked executable. In one large binary tested, total object size (not just
debug info) shrank by 16%, entirely relocation entries. Linked executable
grew by 4%. This was with compressed debug info in the objects, uncompressed
in the linked executable. Without compression in the objects, the win would be
smaller (the growth of debug_ranges itself would be more significant).
