We have a few functions that virtually all command wants to run on
process startup/shutdown. This patch adds InitLLVM class to do that
all at once, so that we don't need to copy-n-paste boilerplate code
to each llvm command's main() function.

They don't actually change nay behaviour, as llvm-strings currently
checks the whole object without looking at individual sections anyway.
This allows using llvm-strings in a context that explicitly passes
the -a option.

The LLVM tools can be used as a replacement for binutils, in which case
it's convenient to create symlinks with the binutils names. Add support
for these symlinks in the build system. As with any other llvm tool
symlinks, the user can limit the installed symlinks by only adding the
desired ones to `LLVM_TOOLCHAIN_TOOLS`.

Permit specifying the match length (the `-n` or `--bytes` option). The
deprecated `-[length]` form is not supported as an option. This allows the
strings tool to display only the specified length strings rather than the
hardcoded default length of >= 4.

Also,
Revert "test: remove the archive before modifying it"
Revert "test: explicitly use gnu format"
This reverts commits r286778, r286729 and r286767, as they are randomly failing
on many bots (AArch64, x86_64).

Until we have handling for ignoring unloaded sections, simplify the logic to
the point of triviality. This fixes the scanning of archives, particularly when
embedded in archives.

This is a replacement to binutils' string tool. It prints strings found in a
binary (object file, executable, or archive library). It is rather bare and
not functionally equivalent, however, it lays the groundwork necessary for the
strings tool, enabling iterative development of features to reach feature
parity.
