Summary:
For ThinLTOCodegenerator, it has an option to save the object file
outputs into a directory which is essential for debug info. Tools like lldb
and dsymutil will look for these object files for debug info.
On Darwin platform, you can link fat binaries with one single clang
driver invocation like:
$ clang -arch x86_64 -arch i386 -Wl,-object_path_lto,$TMPDIR ...
Unfornately, the output object files for one architecture is going to
overwrite the previous ones and one architecture slice will end up with
no debug info. One example for this is to turn on ThinLTO for sanitizer
dylibs in compiler-rt project.
To fix the issue, add the name for the architecture into the name of the
output object file.

Summary:
The motivation is to support better the -object_path_lto option on
Darwin. The linker needs to write down the generate object files on
disk for later use by lldb or dsymutil (debug info are not present
in the final binary). We're moving this into libLTO so that we can
be smarter when a cache is enabled and hard-link when possible
instead of duplicating the files.
