CHECK-LABEL is meant to be used in place on CHECK on lines containing identifiers or other unique labels (they need not actually be labels in the source or output language, though.) This is used to break up the input stream into separate blocks delineated by CHECK-LABEL lines, each of which is checked independently. This greatly improves the accuracy of errors and fix-it hints in many cases, and allows for FileCheck to recover from errors in one block by continuing to subsequent blocks.
Some tests will be converted to use this new directive in forthcoming patches.

Archive files (.a) can have a symbol table indicating which object
files in them define which symbols. The purpose of this symbol table
is to speed up linking by allowing the linker the read only the .o
files it is actually going to use instead of having to parse every
object's symbol table.
LLVM's archive library currently supports a LLVM specific format for
such table. It is hard to see any value in that now that llvm-ld is
gone:
* System linkers don't use it: GNU ar uses the same plugin as the
linker to create archive files with a regular index. The OS X ar
creates no symbol table for IL files, I assume the linker just parses
all IL files.
* It doesn't interact well with archives having both IL and native objects.
* We probably don't want to be responsible for yet another archive
format variant.
This patch then:
* Removes support for creating and reading such index from lib/Archive.
* Remove llvm-ranlib, since there is nothing left for it to do.
We should in the future add support for regular indexes to llvm-ar for
both native and IL objects. When we do that, llvm-ranlib should be
reimplemented as a symlink to llvm-ar, as it is equivalent to "ar s".

This option expands shown relocations from single line to a dictionary
format:
Relocation {
Offset: 0x4
Type: R_386_32 (1)
Symbol: sym
Info: 0x0
}

Before we learned about :doc:, we used :ref: and put a dummy link at the
top of each page. Don't do that anymore.
This fixes PR14891 as a special case.

- Currently this leaves us with less build system support (e.g., installing man pages) for the docs than is desired. I'm working on fixing this, but it may take a while. If someone finds this particularly egregious let me know and I will prioritize it.
