Summary:
ELF linkers generate __start_<secname> and __stop_<secname> symbols
when there is a value in a section <secname> where the name is a valid
C identifier. If dead stripping determines that the values declared
in section <secname> are dead, and we then internalize (and delete)
such a symbol, programs that reference the corresponding start and end
section symbols will get undefined reference linking errors.
To fix this, add the section name to the IRSymtab entry when a symbol is
defined in a specific section. Then use this in the gold-plugin to mark
the symbol as external and visible from outside the summary when the
section name is a valid C identifier.

Introduce symbol table data structures that can be potentially written to
disk, have the LTO library build those data structures using temporarily
constructed modules and redirect the LTO library implementation to go through
those data structures. This allows us to remove the LLVMContext and Modules
owned by InputFile.
With this change I measured a peak memory consumption decrease from 5.4GB to
2.8GB in a no-op incremental ThinLTO link of Chromium on Linux. The impact on
memory consumption is larger in COFF linkers where we are currently forced
to materialize all metadata in order to read linker options. Peak memory
consumption linking a large piece of Chromium for Windows with full LTO and
debug info decreases from >64GB (OOM) to 15GB.

Summary:
The cumulative size of the bitcode files for a very large application
can be huge, particularly with -g. In a distributed build environment,
all of these files must be sent to the remote build node that performs
the thin link step, and this can exceed size limits.
The thin link actually only needs the summary along with a bitcode
symbol table. Until we have a proper bitcode symbol table, simply
stripping the debug metadata results in significant size reduction.
Add support for an option to additionally emit minimized bitcode
modules, just for use in the thin link step, which for now just strips
all debug metadata. I plan to add a cc1 option so this can be invoked
easily during the compile step.
However, care must be taken to ensure that these minimized thin link
bitcode files produce the same index as with the original bitcode files,
as these original bitcode files will be used in the backends.
Specifically:
1) The module hash used for caching is typically produced by hashing the
written bitcode, and we want to include the hash that would correspond
to the original bitcode file. This is because we want to ensure that
changes in the stripped portions affect caching. Added plumbing to emit
the same module hash in the minimized thin link bitcode file.
2) The module paths in the index are constructed from the module ID of
each thin linked bitcode, and typically is automatically generated from
the input file path. This is the path used for finding the modules to
import from, and obviously we need this to point to the original bitcode
files. Added gold-plugin support to take a suffix replacement during the
thin link that is used to override the identifier on the MemoryBufferRef
constructed from the loaded thin link bitcode file. The assumption is
that the build system can specify that the minimized bitcode file has a
name that is similar but uses a different suffix (e.g. out.thinlink.bc
instead of out.o).
Added various tests to ensure that we get identical index files out of
the thin link step.

After the call to sys::fs::exists succeeds, indicating a cache hit, we call
AddFile and the client will open the file using the supplied path. If the
client is using cache pruning, there is a potential race between the pruner
and the client. To avoid this, change the caching API so that it provides
a MemoryBuffer to the client, and have clients use that MemoryBuffer where
possible.
This scheme won't work with the gold plugin because the plugin API expects a
file path. So we have the gold plugin use the buffer identifier as a path and
live with the race for now. (Note that the gold plugin isn't actually affected
by the problem at the moment because it doesn't support cache pruning.)
This effectively reverts r279883 modulo the change to use the existing path
in the gold plugin.

Summary:
Split ReaderWriter.h which contains the APIs into both the BitReader and
BitWriter libraries into BitcodeReader.h and BitcodeWriter.h.
This is to address Chandler's concern about sharing the same API header
between multiple libraries (BitReader and BitWriter). That concern is
why we create a single bitcode library in our downstream build of clang,
which led to r286297 being reverted as it added a dependency that
created a cycle only when there is a single bitcode library (not two as
in upstream).

In an IR symbol table I would expect the comdats to be represented as:
- A table of strings, one for each comdat name.
- Each symbol has an optional index into that table.
The natural api for accessing that would be
InputFile:
ArrayRef<StringRef> getComdatTable() const;
Symbol:
int getComdatIndex() const;
This patch implements an API as close to that as possible. The
implementation on top of the current IRObjectFile is a bit hackish,
but should map just fine over a symbol table and is very convenient to
use.

The NativeObjectOutput class has a design problem: it mixes up the caching
policy with the interface for output streams, which makes the client-side
code hard to follow and would for example make it harder to replace the
cache implementation in an arbitrary client.
This change separates the two aspects by moving the caching policy
to a separate field in Config, replacing NativeObjectOutput with a
NativeObjectStream class which only deals with streams and does not need to
be overridden by most clients and introducing an AddFile callback for adding
files (e.g. from the cache) to the link.

With the new LTO API in r278338, we stopped emitting the individual
index files and imports files for some modules in the distributed backend
case (thinlto-index-only plugin option).
Specifically, this is when the linker decides not to include a module in the
link, because it was in an archive library and did not have a strong
reference to it. Not creating the expected output files makes the
distributed build system implementation more difficult, in terms of
checking for the expected outputs of the thin link, and scheduling the
backend jobs. To address this, the gold-plugin will write dummy empty
.thinlto.bc and .imports files for modules not included in the link
(which LTO never sees).
Augmented a gold v1.12+ test, since that version of gold has the handling
for notifying on modules not being included in the link.

Summary:
Have the cache pass back the path to the cache entry when it
is ready to be loaded, instead of a buffer.
For gold-plugin we can simply pass this file back to gold directly,
which avoids expensive writing of a separate tmp file. Ensure
the cache entry is not deleted on cleanup by adjusting the setting
of the IsTemporary flags.
Moved the loading of the buffer into llvm-lto2 to maintain current
behavior.

Skip the merging of common symbols for ThinLTO modules, they will be

create a combined module for ThinLTO distributed builds.

- Fix a bunch of Windows bot failures with "ambiguous call to overloaded

std::make_unique (preface the new make_unique calls with "llvm::")
- Attempt to fix a modules bot failure by adding a missing include

Original change:
Resolution-based LTO API.
Summary:
This introduces a resolution-based LTO API. The main advantage of this API over
existing APIs is that it allows the linker to supply a resolution for each
symbol in each object, rather than the combined object as a whole. This will
become increasingly important for use cases such as ThinLTO which require us
to process symbol resolutions in a more complicated way than just adjusting
linkage.
