The goal of this patch is to maximize CPU utilization on multi-socket or high core count systems, so that parallel computations such as LLD/ThinLTO can use all hardware threads in the system. Before this patch, on Windows, a maximum of 64 hardware threads could be used at most, in some cases dispatched only on one CPU socket.
== Background ==
Windows doesn't have a flat cpu_set_t like Linux. Instead, it projects hardware CPUs (or NUMA nodes) to applications through a concept of "processor groups". A "processor" is the smallest unit of execution on a CPU, that is, an hyper-thread if SMT is active; a core otherwise. There's a limit of 32-bit processors on older 32-bit versions of Windows, which later was raised to 64-processors with 64-bit versions of Windows. This limit comes from the affinity mask, which historically is represented by the sizeof(void*). Consequently, the concept of "processor groups" was introduced for dealing with systems with more than 64 hyper-threads.
By default, the Windows OS assigns only one "processor group" to each starting application, in a round-robin manner. If the application wants to use more processors, it needs to programmatically enable it, by assigning threads to other "processor groups". This also means that affinity cannot cross "processor group" boundaries; one can only specify a "preferred" group on start-up, but the application is free to allocate more groups if it wants to.
This creates a peculiar situation, where newer CPUs like the AMD EPYC 7702P (64-cores, 128-hyperthreads) are projected by the OS as two (2) "processor groups". This means that by default, an application can only use half of the cores. This situation could only get worse in the years to come, as dies with more cores will appear on the market.
== The problem ==
The heavyweight_hardware_concurrency() API was introduced so that only *one hardware thread per core* was used. Once that API returns, that original intention is lost, only the number of threads is retained. Consider a situation, on Windows, where the system has 2 CPU sockets, 18 cores each, each core having 2 hyper-threads, for a total of 72 hyper-threads. Both heavyweight_hardware_concurrency() and hardware_concurrency() currently return 36, because on Windows they are simply wrappers over std:🧵:hardware_concurrency() -- which can only return processors from the current "processor group".
== The changes in this patch ==
To solve this situation, we capture (and retain) the initial intention until the point of usage, through a new ThreadPoolStrategy class. The number of threads to use is deferred as late as possible, until the moment where the std::threads are created (ThreadPool in the case of ThinLTO).
When using hardware_concurrency(), setting ThreadCount to 0 now means to use all the possible hardware CPU (SMT) threads. Providing a ThreadCount above to the maximum number of threads will have no effect, the maximum will be used instead.
The heavyweight_hardware_concurrency() is similar to hardware_concurrency(), except that only one thread per hardware *core* will be used.
When LLVM_ENABLE_THREADS is OFF, the threading APIs will always return 1, to ensure any caller loops will be exercised at least once.

Summary:
The old pass manager separated speed optimization and size optimization
levels into two unsigned values. Coallescing both in an enum in the new
pass manager may lead to unintentional casts and comparisons.
In particular, taking a look at how the loop unroll passes were constructed
previously, the Os/Oz are now (==new pass manager) treated just like O3,
likely unintentionally.
This change disallows raw comparisons between optimization levels, to
avoid such unintended effects. As an effect, the O{s|z} behavior changes
for loop unrolling and loop unroll and jam, matching O2 rather than O3.
The change also parameterizes the threshold values used for loop
unrolling, primarily to aid testing.

Currently CodeGenOpts like UnrollLoops/VectorizeLoop/VectorizeSLP in clang
are not passed down to pass builder in ltobackend when new pass manager is
used. This is inconsistent with the behavior when new pass manager is used
and thinlto is not used. Such inconsistency causes slp vectorization pass

Summary:
This adds support for embedding bitcode in a binary during LTO. The libLTO gains supports the `-lto-embed-bitcode` flag. The option allows users of the LTO library to embed a bitcode section. For example, LLD can pass the option via `ld.lld -mllvm=-lto-embed-bitcode`.
This feature allows doing something comparable to `clang -c -fembed-bitcode`, but on the (LTO) linker level. Having bitcode alongside native code has many use-cases. To give an example, the MacOS linker can create a `-bitcode_bundle` section containing bitcode. Also, having this feature built into LLVM is an alternative to 3rd party tools such as [[ https://github.com/travitch/whole-program-llvm | wllvm ]] or [[ https://github.com/SRI-CSL/gllvm | gllvm ]]. As with these tools, this feature simplifies creating "whole-program" llvm bitcode files, but in contrast to wllvm/gllvm it does not rely on a specific llvm frontend/driver.

Summary: IR printing has not been correctly supported with (Thin)LTO if the new pass manager is enabled. Previously we only get outputs from backend(codegen) passes, as they are still under legacy pass manager even when the new pass manager is enabled. This patch addresses the issue and enables IR printing for optimization passes with new pass manager + (Thin)LTO setting.

Summary:
With Split DWARF the resulting object file (then called skeleton CU)
contains the file name of another ("DWO") file with the debug info.
This can be a problem for remote compilation, as it will contain the
name of the file on the compilation server, not on the client.
To use Split DWARF with remote compilation, one needs to either
* make sure only relative paths are used, and mirror the build directory
structure of the client on the server,
* inject the desired file name on the client directly.
Since llc already supports the latter solution, we're just copying that
over. We allow setting the actual output filename separately from the
value of the DW_AT_[GNU_]dwo_name attribute in the skeleton CU.
Fixes PR40276.

Also add a test, strong_non_prevailing.ll, to ensure that multiple
copies of a strong symbol are dropped.
To fix the test regressions exposed by this fix,
- do not mark prevailing copies for symbols with 'appending' linkage.
There's no one prevailing copy for such symbols.
- fix the prevailing version in dead-strip-fulllto.ll
- explicitly pass exported symbols to llvm-lto in fumcimport.ll and
funcimport_var.ll

This can be used to preserve profiling information across codebase
changes that have widespread impact on mangled names, but across which
most profiling data should still be usable. For example, when switching
from libstdc++ to libc++, or from the old libstdc++ ABI to the new ABI,
or even from a 32-bit to a 64-bit build.
The user can provide a remapping file specifying parts of mangled names
that should be treated as equivalent (eg, std::__1 should be treated as
equivalent to std::__cxx11), and profile data will be treated as
applying to a particular function if its name is equivalent to the name
of a function in the profile data under the provided equivalences. See
the documentation change for a description of how this is configured.
Remapping is supported for both sample-based profiling and instruction
profiling. We do not support remapping indirect branch target
information, but all other profile data should be remapped
appropriately.
Support is only added for the new pass manager. If someone wants to also
add support for this for the old pass manager, doing so should be
straightforward.
