Versions can be assigned to symbols in two different ways.
One is the usual version scripts, and the other is special
symbol suffix '@'. If a symbol contains '@', the string after
that is considered to specify a version name.
Previously, we look for '@' for all symbols.
Anything that works on every symbol can be expensive because
the linker has to handle a lot of symbols. The search for '@'
was not an exception.
In this patch, I made two optimizations.
The first optimization is to handle '@' only when at least one
version is defined. If no versions are defined, no versions can
be assigned to any symbols, so it's waste of time to search for '@'.
The second optimization is to scan only suffixes of symbol names
instead of entire symbol names. Symbol names can be very long, but
symbol versions are usually short, so scanning entire symbol names
is waste of time, too.
There are some error cases which we no longer be able to detect
with this patch. I don't think it's a major drawback because they
are minor errors. Speed is more important.
This change improves LLD with debug info self-link time from
6.6993 seconds to 6.3426 seconds (or -5.3%).

Summary:
To enable profile-guided indirect call promotion in ThinLTO mode, we
simply add call graph edges for each profitable target from the profile
to the summaries, then the summary-guided importing will consider the
callee for importing as usual.
Also we need to enable the indirect call promotion pass creation in the
PassManagerBuilder when PerformThinLTO=true (we are in the ThinLTO
backend), so that the newly imported functions are considered for
promotion in the backends.
The IC promotion profiles refer to callees by GUID, which required
adding GUIDs to the per-module VST in bitcode (and assigning them
valueIds similar to how they are assigned valueIds in the combined
index).

Summary:
Refactored the profitability analysis out of the IC promotion pass and
into lib/Analysis so that it can be accessed by the summary index
builder in a follow-on patch to enable IC promotion in ThinLTO (D21932).

Previously, each subclass of SymbolBody had a pointer to a source
file from which it was created. So, there was no single way to get
a source file for a symbol. We had getSourceFile<ELFT>(), but the
function was a bit inconvenient as it's a template.
This patch makes SymbolBody have a pointer to a source file.
If a symbol is not created from a file, the pointer has a nullptr.

No functional change, just some cleanups:
- Use auto when it is appropriate.
- There were some strange static_casts which were superfluous.
- Use range-based for loops when appropriate.
- The dyn_cast_or_null construct was used when null was impossible.

Rather than building up a number of SmallString-s in order to construct a
std::string, use more StringRefs and construct the string once before use. This
avoids unnecessary string constructions. NFC.

Add a couple of local variables for the class interface and the super class
interface. This allows for the repeated access of the information to be cached
and makes the code simpler to understand. NFC.

This is a partial implementation of a general fold for associative+commutative operators:
(op (cast (op X, C2)), C1) --> (cast (op X, op (C1, C2)))
(op (cast (op X, C2)), C1) --> (op (cast X), op (C1, C2))
There are 7 associative operators and 13 cast types, so this could potentially go a lot further.

This ensures that accidental calls to these functions will break loadly instead
of corrupting the stack with invalid return values.
These functions have been introduced earlier as replacement of pet and parts of
ppcg which we will never use and consequently have not been imported or compiled
into Polly.

This reverts commit r275042; the initial commit triggered self-hosting failures
on ARM/AArch64. James Molloy identified the problematic backend code, which has
been disabled in r275677. Trying again...
Original commit message:
Let FuncAttrs infer the 'returned' argument attribute
A function can have one argument with the 'returned' attribute, indicating that
the associated argument is always the return value of the function. Add
FuncAttrs inference logic.
llvm-svn: 275678
r275042 reverted function-attribute inference for the 'returned' attribute
because the feature triggered self-hosting failures on ARM and AArch64. James
Molloy determined that the this-return argument forwarding feature, which
directly ties the returned input argument to the returned value, was the cause.
It seems likely that this forwarding code contains, or triggers, a subtle bug.
Disabling for now until we can track that down.

The identifier `Version` was used too often in the code to handle
symbol versions. The struct that contains version definitions is
named `Version`. Local variables for version ID are named `Version`.
Local varaible for version string are named `Version`.
This patch give them different names.

Previously, Verdefs and Verdauxs are separated in the section.
The new layout is easier to write as we do not have to maintain
two pointers and can avoid passing a reference to a pointer.

This does not schedule any passes besides the ones necessary to
construct and print the machine function. This is useful to test .mir
