This untangles the MCContext and the MCObjectFileInfo. There is a circular
dependency between MCContext and MCObjectFileInfo. Currently this dependency
also exists during construction: You can't contruct a MOFI without a MCContext
without constructing the MCContext with a dummy version of that MOFI first.
This removes this dependency during construction. In a perfect world,
MCObjectFileInfo wouldn't depend on MCContext at all, but only be stored in the
MCContext, like other MC information. This is future work.
This also shifts/adds more information to the MCContext making it more
available to the different targets. Namely:
- TargetTriple
- ObjectFileType
- SubtargetInfo

As a resolution to https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=25295 , GNU as
from binutils 2.35 supports the optional third argument for the .symver directive.
'remove' for a non-default version is useful:
`.symver def_v1, def@v1, remove` => def_v1 is not retained in the symbol table.
Previously the user has to strip the original symbol or specify a `local:`
version node in a version script to localize the symbol.
`.symver def, def@@v1, remove` and `.symver def, def@@@v1, remove` are supported
as well, though they are identical to `.symver def, def@@@v1`.
local/hidden are not useful so this patch does not implement them.
GNU as supports this. This mode silently ignores
.cfi_startproc/.cfi_endproc and .cfi_* in between.
Also drop a diagnostic `in '.cfi_sections' directive`: the diagnostic
already includes the line and it is clear the line is a `.cfi_sections` directive.

No behavior change.
This change implements pseudo probe encoding and emission for CSSPGO. Please see RFC here for more context: https://groups.google.com/g/llvm-dev/c/1p1rdYbL93s
Pseudo probes are in the form of intrinsic calls on IR/MIR but they do not turn into any machine instructions. Instead they are emitted into the binary as a piece of data in standalone sections. The probe-specific sections are not needed to be loaded into memory at execution time, thus they do not incur a runtime overhead.
**ELF object emission**
The binary data to emit are organized as two ELF sections, i.e, the `.pseudo_probe_desc` section and the `.pseudo_probe` section. The `.pseudo_probe_desc` section stores a function descriptor for each function and the `.pseudo_probe` section stores the actual probes, each fo which corresponds to an IR basic block or an IR function callsite. A function descriptor is stored as a module-level metadata during the compilation and is serialized into the object file during object emission.
Both the probe descriptors and pseudo probes can be emitted into a separate ELF section per function to leverage the linker for deduplication. A `.pseudo_probe` section shares the same COMDAT group with the function code so that when the function is dead, the probes are dead and disposed too. On the contrary, a `.pseudo_probe_desc` section has its own COMDAT group. This is because even if a function is dead, its probes may be inlined into other functions and its descriptor is still needed by the profile generation tool.
The format of `.pseudo_probe_desc` section looks like:
```
.section .pseudo_probe_desc,"",@progbits
.quad 6309742469962978389 // Func GUID
.quad 4294967295 // Func Hash
.byte 9 // Length of func name
.ascii "_Z5funcAi" // Func name

.quad -2016976694713209516
.quad 72617220756
.byte 7
.ascii "_Z3fibi"
```
For each `.pseudoprobe` section, the encoded binary data consists of a single function record corresponding to an outlined function (i.e, a function with a code entry in the `.text` section). A function record has the following format :
```
FUNCTION BODY (one for each outlined function present in the text section)
GUID (uint64)
GUID of the function
NPROBES (ULEB128)
Number of probes originating from this function.
NUM_INLINED_FUNCTIONS (ULEB128)
Number of callees inlined into this function, aka number of
first-level inlinees
PROBE RECORDS
A list of NPROBES entries. Each entry contains:
INDEX (ULEB128)
TYPE (uint4)
0 - block probe, 1 - indirect call, 2 - direct call
ATTRIBUTE (uint3)
reserved
ADDRESS_TYPE (uint1)
0 - code address, 1 - address delta
CODE_ADDRESS (uint64 or ULEB128)
code address or address delta, depending on ADDRESS_TYPE
INLINED FUNCTION RECORDS
A list of NUM_INLINED_FUNCTIONS entries describing each of the inlined
callees. Each record contains:
INLINE SITE
GUID of the inlinee (uint64)
ID of the callsite probe (ULEB128)
FUNCTION BODY
A FUNCTION BODY entry describing the inlined function.
```
To support building a context-sensitive profile, probes from inlinees are grouped by their inline contexts. An inline context is logically a call path through which a callee function lands in a caller function. The probe emitter builds an inline tree based on the debug metadata for each outlined function in the form of a trie tree. A tree root is the outlined function. Each tree edge stands for a callsite where inlining happens. Pseudo probes originating from an inlinee function are stored in a tree node and the tree path starting from the root all the way down to the tree node is the inline context of the probes. The emission happens on the whole tree top-down recursively. Probes of a tree node will be emitted altogether with their direct parent edge. Since a pseudo probe corresponds to a real code address, for size savings, the address is encoded as a delta from the previous probe except for the first probe. Variant-sized integer encoding, aka LEB128, is used for address delta and probe index.
**Assembling**
Pseudo probes can be printed as assembly directives alternatively. This allows for good assembly code readability and also provides a view of how optimizations and pseudo probes affect each other, especially helpful for diff time assembly analysis.
A pseudo probe directive has the following operands in order: function GUID, probe index, probe type, probe attributes and inline context. The directive is generated by the compiler and can be parsed by the assembler to form an encoded `.pseudoprobe` section in the object file.
A example assembly looks like:
```
foo2: # @foo2
# %bb.0: # %bb0
pushq %rax
testl %edi, %edi
.pseudoprobe 837061429793323041 1 0 0

**Disassembling**

printInst prints a branch/call instruction as `b offset` (there are many
variants on various targets) instead of `b address`.
It is a convention to use address instead of offset in most external
symbolizers/disassemblers. This difference makes `llvm-objdump -d`
output unsatisfactory.
Add `uint64_t Address` to printInst(), so that it can pass the argument to
printInstruction(). `raw_ostream &OS` is moved to the last to be
consistent with other print* methods.
The next step is to pass `Address` to printInstruction() (generated by
tablegen from the instruction set description). We can gradually migrate
targets to print addresses instead of offsets.
In any case, downstream projects which don't know `Address` can pass 0 as
the argument.
