Summary:
--set-section-flags is used to change the section flags (e.g. SHF_ALLOC) for given sections. The flags allowed are the same from the existing --rename-section=.old=.new[,flags] feature.
Additionally, make sure that --set-section-flag cannot be used with --rename-section (either the source or destination), since --rename-section accepts flags. This avoids ambiguity for something like "--rename-section=.foo=.bar,alloc --set-section-flag=.bar,code".

Summary: When using llvm-objcopy -O binary and the resulting file will be empty (e.g. removing the only section that would be written, or using --only-keep with a section that doesn't exist/isn't SHF_ALLOC), we crash because FileOutputBuffer expects Size > 0. Add a regression test, and change Buffer to open/truncate the output file in this case.

This change adds an option -g to llvm-objcopy which is an alias for the existing option --strip-debug.
This fixes PR40003.

The aux symbols were stored in an opaque std::vector<uint8_t>,
with contents interpreted according to the rest of the symbol.
All aux symbol types but one fit in 18 bytes (sizeof(coff_symbol16)),
and if written to a bigobj, two extra padding bytes are written (as
sizeof(coff_symbol32) is 20). In the storage agnostic intermediate
representation, store the aux symbols as a series of coff_symbol16
sized opaque blobs. (In practice, all such aux symbols only consist
of one aux symbol, so this is more flexible than what reality needs.)
The special case is the file aux symbols, which are written in
potentially more than one aux symbol slot, without any padding,
as one single long string. This can't be stored in the same opaque
vector of fixed sized aux symbol entries. The file aux symbols will
occupy a different number of aux symbol slots depending on the type
of output object file. As nothing in the intermediate process needs
to have accurate raw symbol indices, updating that is moved into the
writer class.

Summary:
This patch changes a few methods to return Error instead of manually calling error/reportError to abort. This will make it easier to extract into a library.
Note that error() takes just a string (this patch also adds an overload that takes an Error), while reportError() takes string + [error/code]. To help unify things, use FileError to associate a given filename with an error. Note that this takes some special care (for now), e.g. calling reportError(FileName, <something that could be FileError>) will duplicate the filename. The goal is to eventually remove reportError() and have every error associated with a file to be a FileError, and just one error handling block at the tool level.
This change was suggested in D56806. I took it a little further than suggested, but completely fixing llvm-objcopy will take a couple more patches. If this approach looks good, I'll commit this and apply similar patche(s) for the rest.
This change is NFC in terms of non-error related code, although the error message changes in one context.

Summary:
Fix llvm-objcopy to add .note sections as SHT_NOTEs. GNU objcopy overrides section flags for special sections. For `.note` sections (with the exception of `.note.GNU-stack`), SHT_NOTE is used.
Many other sections are special cased by libbfd, but `.note` is the only special section I can seem to find being used with objcopy --add-section.
See `.note` in context of the full list of special sections here: https://sourceware.org/git/gitweb.cgi?p=binutils-gdb.git;a=blob;f=bfd/elf.c;h=eb3e1828e9c651678b95a1dcbc3b124783d1d2be;hb=HEAD#l2675

Summary:
As pointed out in D53667, our use of hyphens in flags can be inconsistent, mixing `-` with `--`. This change makes all long style flags use `--`.
Automatically changed via:
```
find test/tools/llvm-objcopy/ELF -type f | xargs sed -i 's/ -\([a-zA-Z]\{3\}\)/ --\1/g'

Two false positives were manually fixed/reverted.

Summary:
The -O flag is currently being mostly ignored; it's only checked whether or not the output format is "binary". This adds support for a few formats (e.g. elf64-x86-64), so that when specified, the output can change between 32/64 bit and sizes/alignments are updated accordingly.

Summary:
Fix EntrySize, Size, and Align before doing layout calculation.
As a side cleanup, this removes a dependence on sizeof(Elf_Sym) within BinaryReader, so we can untemplatize that.
This unblocks a cleaner implementation of handling the -O<format> flag. See D53667 for a previous attempt. Actual implementation of the -O<format> flag will come in an upcoming commit, this is largely a NFC (although not _totally_ one, because alignment on binary input was actually wrong before).

I just hard core goofed when I wrote this and created a different name
for no good reason. I'm failry aware of most "fresh" users of llvm-objcopy
(that is, users which are not using it as a drop in replacement for GNU
objcopy) and can say that only "-j" is being used by such people so this
patch should strictly increase compatibility and not remove it.

Split timestamp preservation tests into atime and mtime test, and skip
the former on NetBSD. When the filesystem is mounted noatime, NetBSD
not only inhibits implicit atime updates but also prevents setting atime
via utime(), causing the test to fail.

This flag does not exist in GNU objcopy but has a major use case.
Debugging tools support the .build-id directory structure to find
debug binaries. There is no easy way to build this structure up
however. One way to do it is by using llvm-readelf and some crazy
shell magic. This implements the feature directly. It is most often
the case that you'll want to strip a file and send the original to
the .build-id directory but if you just want to send a file to the
.build-id directory you can copy to /dev/null instead.
