LLVM's build system contains support for configuring a distribution, but
it can often be useful to be able to configure multiple distributions
(e.g. if you want separate distributions for the tools and the
libraries). Add this support to the build system, along with
documentation and usage examples.

In an ELF shared object, a default visibility defined symbol is preemptible by default.
This creates some missed optimization opportunities. -fno-semantic-interposition can optimize -fPIC:
* in Clang: avoid GOT/PLT cost for variable access/function calls to external linkage definition in the same TU
* in GCC: enable interprocedural optimizations (including inlining) and avoid PLT
See https://gist.github.com/MaskRay/2d4dfcfc897341163f734afb59f689c6 for more information.
-Bsymbolic-functions is more aggressive than -fvisibility-inlines-hidden (present since 2012) as it applies
to all function definitions. It can
* avoid PLT for cross-TU function calls && reduce dynamic symbol lookup
* reduce dynamic symbol lookup for taking function addresses and optimize out GOT/TOC on x86-64/ppc64
With both options, the libLLVM.so and libclang-cpp.so performance should
be closer to PIE binary linking against `libLLVM*.a` and `libclang*.a`
(In a -DLLVM_TARGETS_TO_BUILD=X86 build, the number of JUMP_SLOT decreases from 12716 to 1628, and the number of GLOB_DAT decreases from 1918 to 1313
The built clang with `-DLLVM_LINK_LLVM_DYLIB=on -DCLANG_LINK_CLANG_DYLIB=on` is significantly faster.
See the Linux kernel build result https://bugs.archlinux.org/task/70697
)
Some implication:
Interposing a subset of functions is no longer supported.
(This is fragile anyway and cannot really be supported. For Mach-O we don't use
`ld -interpose`, so interposition is not supported on Mach-O at all.)
Compiling a program which takes the address of any LLVM function with
`{gcc,clang} -fno-pic` and expects the address to equal to the address taken
from libLLVM.so or libclang-cpp.so is unsupported. I am fairly confident that
llvm-project shouldn't have different behaviors depending on such pointer
equality (as we've been using -fvisibility-inlines-hidden which applies to
inline functions for a long time), but if we accidentally do, users should be
aware that they should not make assumption on pointer equality in `-fno-pic`
mode.

If compiling with GCC or linking with ld.bfd, these options have little
effect, but if built with Clang and linked with LLD, they provide a
quite notable size decrease - this shrinks an entire llvm-mingw
distribution package by 22%.
If building with BUILD_SHARED_LIBS or LLVM_BUILD_LLVM_DYLIB with LLD,
this requires a version of LLD that contains a fix for auto exporting

Changing global flags can break builds of projects that include/build

This allows one to cross-compile the header/object for a model in a
setup where the compiler is built on a system that cannot host the AOT
compiler. For example, if arm-hostable clang is desired, while the AOT
Tensorflow compiler can cross-compile to arm, it can't currently run on
arm.
The only alternative in that scenario would be to cross-compile clang
itself, but that gets complicated when trying to run tests after that.

The current cmake script attempts to add the path containing clangs various runtime systems by getting the resource directory and then appending the hardcoded value /lib/windows to it. This works for a normal clang-cl build but fails for a build of clang using LLVM_ENABLE_PER_TARGET_RUNTIME_DIR, such as the builds from llvm/runtimes.
This patch instead uses -print-libgcc-file-name in conjunction with --rtlib=compiler-rt, and instead adds the containing directory as library path.
For non per-target runtime directory builds, such as the release builds, there is no change. Even if the builtins library were to be deleted or moved it would output the same path as before.
For per-target runtime builds that also have the builtins library, this now finds the correct directory containing all of clang runtime libraries.
Only case still not handled by this change, is if a per-target runtime directory build is used, but the builtins library was not built.
I believe that is the best we can do for now however, without modifying clang.

Fixes an issue discovered post commit in https://reviews.llvm.org/D98278
Visual Studios implementation of the C++ Standard Library does not use strerror to produce a message for std::error_code unlike other standard libraries such as libstdc++ or libc++ that might be used.
This patch adds a cmake script that through running a C++ program gets the error messages for the POSIX error codes and passes them onto lit through an optional config parameter.
If the config parameter is not set, or getting the messages failed, due to say a cross compiling configuration without an emulator, it will fall back to using pythons strerror functions.

As stated in the CMake manual, we are supposed to use MODULE rules to generate
plugin libraries:
"MODULE libraries are plugins that are not linked into other targets but may be
loaded dynamically at runtime using dlopen-like functionality"
Besides, LLVM's plugin infrastructure fits with the AIX treatment of .so
shared objects more than it fits with the AIX treatment of .a library archives
(which may contain shared objects).

Windows is in the unique position of having two drivers, clang-cl and normal GNU clang, depending on whether a GNU or MSVC target is used. The current implementation with the USE_TOOLCHAIN argument assumes that when CMAKE_SYSTEM_NAME is set to Windows that clang-cl should be used, which is the incorrect choice when targeting a GNU environment.
This patch solves this problem by adding an optional TARGET_TRIPLE argument to llvm_ExternalProject_Add, which sets the various CMAKE_<LANG>_COMPILER_TARGET variables. Additionally, if the triple is detected as an MSVC environment, clang-cl and similar MSVC specific tools will be used instead of the GNU tools.
This drops check-llvm under -DLLVM_ENABLE_LTO=Thin from 13m to 10m20s on Windows and 20m to 15m35s on Linux.

Multi-configuration generators (such as Visual Studio and Xcode) allow the specification of a build flavor at build time instead of config time, so the lit configuration files need to support that - and they do for the most part. There are several places that had one of two issues (or both!):
1) Paths had %(build_mode)s set up, but then not configured, resulting in values that would not work correctly e.g. D:/llvm-build/%(build_mode)s/bin/dsymutil.exe
2) Paths did not have %(build_mode)s set up, but instead contained $(Configuration) (which is the value for Visual Studio at configuration time, for Xcode they would have had the equivalent) e.g. "D:/llvm-build/$(Configuration)/lib".
This seems to indicate that we still have a lot of fragility in the configurations, but also that a number of these paths are never used (at least on Windows) since the errors appear to have been there a while.
This patch fixes the configurations and it has been tested with Ninja and Visual Studio to generate the correct paths. We should consider removing some of these settings altogether.

The build server should now have the missing dependencies.
Original summary:
Currently LLDB uses epydoc to generate the Python API reference for the website.
epydoc however is unmaintained since more than a decade and no longer works with
Python 3. Also whatever setup we had once for generating the documentation on
the website server no longer seems to work, so the current website documentation
has been stale since more than a year.
This patch replaces epydoc with sphinx and its automodapi plugin that can
generate Python API references. LLVM already uses sphinx for the rest of the
documentation, so this way we are more consistent with the rest of LLVM. The
only new dependency is the automodapi plugin for sphinx.
This patch effectively does the following things:
* Remove the epydoc code.
* Make a new dummy Python API page in our website that just calls the Sphinx
command for generated the API documentation.
* Add a mock _lldb module that is only used when generating the Python API.
This way we don't have to build all of LLDB to generate the API reference.
Some notes:
* The long list of skips is necessary due to boilerplate functions that SWIG
is generating. Sadly automodapi is not really scriptable from what I can see,
so we have to blacklist this stuff manually.
* The .gitignore change because automodapi wants a subfolder of our
documentation directory to place generated documentation files there. The path
is also what is used on the website, so we can't really workaround this
(without copying the whole `docs` dir somewhere else when we build).
* We have to use environment variables to pass our build path to our sphinx
configuration. Sphinx doesn't support passing variables onto that script.
