A more general name might be match-time error propagation. That is,
it's conceivable we'll one day have non-numeric errors that require
the handling fixed by this patch.
Without this patch, FileCheck behaves as follows:
```
$ cat check
CHECK-NOT: [[#0x8000000000000000+0x8000000000000000]]
$ FileCheck -vv -dump-input=never check < input
check:1:54: remark: implicit EOF: expected string found in input
CHECK-NOT: [[#0x8000000000000000+0x8000000000000000]]
^
<stdin>:2:1: note: found here
^
check:1:15: error: unable to substitute variable or numeric expression: overflow error
CHECK-NOT: [[#0x8000000000000000+0x8000000000000000]]
^
$ echo $?
0
```
Notice that the exit status is 0 even though there's an error.
Moreover, FileCheck doesn't print the error diagnostic unless both
`-dump-input=never` and `-vv` are specified.
The same problem occurs when `CHECK-NOT` does have a match but a
capture fails due to overflow: exit status is 0, and no diagnostic is
printed unless both `-dump-input=never` and `-vv` are specified. The
usefulness of capturing from `CHECK-NOT` is questionable, but this
case should certainly produce an error.
With this patch, FileCheck always includes the error diagnostic and
has non-zero exit status for the above examples. It's conceivable
that this change will cause some existing tests to fail, but my
assumption is that they should fail. Moreover, with nearly every
project enabled, this patch didn't produce additional `check-all`
failures for me.
This patch also extends input dumps to include such numeric error
diagnostics for both expected and excluded patterns.
As noted in fixmes in some of the tests added by this patch, this
patch worsens an existing issue with redundant diagnostics. I'll fix
that bug in a subsequent patch.

Introduce CHECK modifiers that change the behavior of the CHECK
directive. Also add a LITERAL modifier for cases where matching could
end requiring escaping strings interpreted as regex where only
literal/fixed string matching is desired (making the CHECK's more
difficult to write/fragile and difficult to interpret).
If more than a prefix is provided - e.g. --check-prefixes=CHECK,FOO - we
don't report if (say) FOO is never used. This may lead to a gap in our
test coverage.
This patch introduces a new option, --allow-unused-prefixes. It
currently is set to true, keeping today's behavior. After we explicitly
set it in tests where this behavior was actually intentional, we will
switch it to false by default.

This relands e9a3d1a401b07cbf7b11695637f1b549782a26cd which was originally
missing linking LLVMSupport into LLMVFileCheck which broke the SHARED_LIBS build.
Original summary:
The actual FileCheck logic seems to be implemented in LLVMSupport. I don't see a
good reason for having FileCheck implemented there as it has a very specific use
while LLVMSupport is a dependency of pretty much every LLVM tool there is. In
fact, the only use of FileCheck I could find (outside the FileCheck tool and the
FileCheck unit test) is a single call in GISelMITest.h.
This moves the FileCheck logic to its own LLVMFileCheck library. This way only
FileCheck and the GlobalISelTests now have a dependency on this code.
