On targets like Arm some relaxations may only be performed when certain
architectural features are available. As functions can be compiled with
differing levels of architectural support we must make a judgement on
whether we can relax based on the MCSubtargetInfo for the function. This
change passes through the MCSubtargetInfo for the function to
fixupNeedsRelaxation so that the decision on whether to relax can be made
per function. In this patch, only the ARM backend makes use of this
information. We must also pass the MCSubtargetInfo to applyFixup because
some fixups skip error checking on the assumption that relaxation has
occurred, to prevent code-generation errors applyFixup must see the same
MCSubtargetInfo as fixupNeedsRelaxation.

Teach AsmParser to check with Assembler for when evaluating constant

assembling-time assertion checks in source-level assemblers. Note that
this relies on the MCStreamer to keep sufficient tabs on Section /
Fragment information which the MCAsmStreamer does not. As a result the
textual output may fail where the equivalent object generation would
pass. This can most easily be resolved by folding the MCAsmStreamer

Summary:
The LLVM SourceMgr class (which is used indirectly by Swift, though not Clang)
has a routine for looking up line numbers of SMLocs. This routine uses a
shared, special-purpose cache that handles exactly one access pattern
efficiently: looking up the line number of an SMLoc that points into the same
buffer as the last query made to the SourceMgr, at a location in the buffer at
or ahead of the last query.
When this works it's fine, but when it fails it's catastrophic for performancer:
one recent out-of-order access from a Swift utility routine ran for tens of
seconds, spending 99% of its time repeatedly scanning buffers for '\n'.
This change removes the shared cache from the SourceMgr and installs a new
cache in each SrcBuffer. The per-SrcBuffer caches are also "full", in the sense
that rather than caching a single last-query pointer, they cache _all_ the
line-ending offsets, in a binary-searchable array, such that once it's
populated (on first access), all subsequent access patterns run at the same
speed.
Performance measurements I've done show this is actually a little bit faster on
real codebases (though only a couple fractions of a percent). Memory usage is
up by a few tens to hundreds of bytes per SrcBuffer that has a line lookup done
on it; I've attempted to minimize this by using dynamic selection of integer
sized when storing offset arrays. But the main motive here is to
make-impossible the cases we don't always see, that show up by surprise when
there is an out-of-order access pattern.

Summary:
This adds a set of new directives that describe 32-bit x86 prologues.
The directives are limited and do not expose the full complexity of
codeview FPO data. They are merely a convenience for the compiler to
generate more readable assembly so we don't need to generate tons of
labels in CodeGen. If our prologue emission changes in the future, we
can change the set of available directives to suit our needs. These are
modelled after the .seh_ directives, which use a different format that
interacts with exception handling.
The directives are:
.cv_fpo_proc _foo
.cv_fpo_pushreg ebp/ebx/etc
.cv_fpo_setframe ebp/esi/etc
.cv_fpo_stackalloc 200
.cv_fpo_endprologue
.cv_fpo_endproc
.cv_fpo_data _foo
I tried to follow the implementation of ARM EHABI CFI directives by
sinking most directives out of MCStreamer and into X86TargetStreamer.
This helps avoid polluting non-X86 code with WinCOFF specific logic.
I used cdb to confirm that this can show locals in parent CSRs in a few
cases, most importantly the one where we use ESI as a frame pointer,
i.e. the one in http://crbug.com/756153#c28
Once we have cdb integration in debuginfo-tests, we can add integration
tests there.

class shows an error message. It's better than print sole '@' sign
without any section type name.
In case of MIPS, example of such section's type is SHT_MIPS_DWARF.
Without the patch we will have to implement some workarounds
in probably not-MIPS-specific part of code base to convert SHT_MIPS_DWARF
to the @progbits while printing assembly and to assign SHT_MIPS_DWARF for
@progbits sections named .debug_* if we encounter such section in
an input assembly.

Summary:
In a .symver assembler directive like:
.symver name, name2@@nodename
"name2@@nodename" should get the same symbol binding as "name".
While the ELF object writer is updating the symbol binding for .symver
aliases before emitting the object file, not doing so when the module
inline assembly is handled by the RecordStreamer is causing the wrong
behavior in *LTO mode.
E.g. when "name" is global, "name2@@nodename" must also be marked as
global. Otherwise, the symbol is skipped when iterating over the LTO
InputFile symbols (InputFile::Symbol::shouldSkip). So, for example,
when performing any *LTO via the gold-plugin, the versioned symbol
definition is not recorded by the plugin and passed back to the
linker. If the object was in an archive, and there were no other symbols
needed from that object, the object would not be included in the final
link and references to the versioned symbol are undefined.
The llvm-lto2 tests added will give an error about an unused symbol
resolution without the fix.

This just adds the basic skeleton for supporting a new object file format.
All of the actual encoding will be implemented in followup patches.
