PGO profile is usually more precise than sample profile. However, PGO profile
needs to be collected from loadtest and loadtest may not be representative
enough to the production workload. Sample profile collected from production
can be used as a supplement -- for functions cold in loadtest but warm/hot
in production, we can scale up the related function in PGO profile if the
function is warm or hot in sample profile.
The implementation contains changes in compiler side and llvm-profdata side.
Given an instr profile and a sample profile, for a function cold in PGO
profile but warm/hot in sample profile, llvm-profdata will either mark
all the counters in the profile to be -1 or scale up the max count in the
function to be above hot threshold, depending on the zero counter ratio in
the profile. The assumption is if there are too many counters being zero
in the function profile, the profile is more likely to cause harm than good,
then llvm-profdata will mark all the counters to be -1 indicating the
function is hot but the profile is unaccountable. In compiler side, if a
function profile with all -1 counters is seen, the function entry count will
be set to be above hot threshold but its internal profile will be dropped.
In the long run, it may be useful to let compiler support using PGO profile
and sample profile at the same time, but that requires more careful design
and more substantial changes to make two profiles work seamlessly. The patch
here serves as a simple intermediate solution.

Change file static function getEntryForPercentile to be a static member function
in ProfileSummaryBuilder so it can be used by other files.

Now that we've moved to C++14, we no longer need the llvm::make_unique
implementation from STLExtras.h. This patch is a mechanical replacement
of (hopefully) all the llvm::make_unique instances across the monorepo.

Summary: Currently ProfileSummaryBuilder doesn't count into callsite samples when computing total samples. Considering that ProfileSummaryInfo is used to checked the hotness of not only body samples but also callsite samples (from SampleProfileLoader), I think the callsite sample counts should be considered when computing total samples.

to reflect the new license.
We understand that people may be surprised that we're moving the header
entirely to discuss the new license. We checked this carefully with the
Foundation's lawyer and we believe this is the correct approach.
Essentially, all code in the project is now made available by the LLVM
project under our new license, so you will see that the license headers
include that license only. Some of our contributors have contributed
code under our old license, and accordingly, we have retained a copy of
our old license notice in the top-level files in each project and
repository.

Summary:
r327219 added wrappers to std::sort which randomly shuffle the container before sorting.
This will help in uncovering non-determinism caused due to undefined sorting
order of objects having the same key.
To make use of that infrastructure we need to invoke llvm::sort instead of std::sort.
Note: This patch is one of a series of patches to replace *all* std::sort to llvm::sort.
Refer the comments section in D44363 for a list of all the required patches.

This removes the subclasses of ProfileSummary, moves the members of the derived classes to the base class.

This splits ProfileSummary into two classes: a ProfileSummary class that has methods to convert from/to metadata and a ProfileSummaryBuilder class that computes the profiles summary which is in ProfileData.
