Some background: One can pass compiled resource files (.res files) directly
to the linker on Windows. If a resource file is given, the linker will run
"cvtres" command in background to convert the resource file to a COFF file
to link it.
What I'm trying to do with this patch is to make the linker to recognize
the resource file by file magic, so that it can run cvtres command.

This is a patch to add capability to llvm-objdump to dump COFF Import Table
entries, so that we can write tests for LLD checking Import Table contents.
llvm-objdump did not print anything but just file name if the format is COFF
and -private-headers option is given. This is a patch adds capability for
dumping DLL Import Table, which is specific to the COFF format.
In this patch I defined a new iterator to iterate over import table entries.
Also added a few functions to COFFObjectFile.cpp to access fields of the entry.

Right now we have two headers for the Mach-O format. I'd like to get rid
of one. Since the other object formats are all in Support, I chose to
keep the Mach-O header in Support, and discard the other one.

* ELFTypes.h contains template magic for defining types based on endianess, size, and alignment.
* ELFFile.h defines the ELFFile class which provides low level ELF specific access.
* ELFObjectFile.h contains ELFObjectFile which uses ELFFile to implement the ObjectFile interface.

this records relocation entries in the mach-o object file
for PIC code generation.

for StringRef with a StringMap
The bug is that the empty key compares equal to the tombstone key.
Also added an assertion to DenseMap to catch similar bugs in future.

If no other operation is specified, 's' becomes an operation instead of an
modifier. The s operation just creates a symbol table. It is the same as
running ranlib.
We assume the archive was created by a sane ar (like llvm-ar or gnu ar) and
if the symbol table is present, then it is current. We use that to optimize
the most common case: a broken build system that thinks it has to run ranlib.

The Binary constructor takes ownership of the memory buffer. This is a fairly
unfortunate interface, but for now make createObjectFile consistent with it
by also deleting the buffer if it fails.
Fixes a leak in llvm-ar found by the valgrind bots.

The original change was rolled back in r186627 because of test
failures on the big endian machine. I believe I fixed the issue
so re-submitting.

Summary:
Dump optional data directory entries in the PE/COFF header, so that
we can test the output of LLD linker. This patch updates the test binary
file, but the source of the binary is the same. I just re-linked the file.
I don't know how the previous file was linked, but the previous file did
not have any data directory entries for some reason.

This fixes two bugs is lib/Object that the use in llvm-ar found:
* In OS X created archives, the name can be padded with nulls. Strip them.
* In the constructor, remember the first non special member and use that in
begin_children. This makes sure we skip all special members, not just the
first one.
The change to llvm-ar itself consist of
* Using lib/Object for reading archives instead of ArchiveReader.cpp.
* Writing the modified archive directly, instead of creating an in memory
representation.
The old Archive library was way more general than what is needed, as can
be seen by the diffstat of this patch.
Having llvm-ar using lib/Object now opens the way for creating regular symbol
tables for both native objects and bitcode files so that we can use those
archives for LTO.
