Windows doesn't properly support pass plugins (as a shared library
can't have undefined references, which pass plugins assume, being
loaded into a host process that contains provides them), thus
disable building it and the corresponding test.
This matches what was done for the passes unit test in
bc8e44218810c0db6328b9809c959ceb7d43e3f5.

This reverts parts of commit 609ef948387ba40e3693c2bd693d82ca34dcdc02,
as it caused build failures on windows if LLVM_BUILD_EXAMPLES was
enabled, due to Bye being added as a dependency of the lit tests.
Set the right target name in clang/examples/Attribute.
Add a missing dependency in the TableGen GlobalISel sublibrary.
Skip building the Bye pass plugin example on windows; plugins
that should have undefined symbols that are found in the host
process aren't supported on windows - this matches what was done
for a unit test in bc8e44218810c0db6328b9809c959ceb7d43e3f5.
This should make both static and dynamic NewPM plugins work with LTO.
And as a bonus, it makes static linking of OldPM plugins more reliable
for plugins with both an OldPM and NewPM interface.
I only implemented the command-line flag to specify NewPM plugins in
llvm-lto2, to show it works. Support can be added for other tools later.

- Update documentation now that the move to monorepo has been made
- Do not tie compiler extension testing to LLVM_BUILD_EXAMPLES
- No need to specify LLVM libraries for plugins
- Add NO_MODULE option to match Polly specific requirements (i.e. building the
module *and* linking it statically)
- Issue a warning when building the compiler extension with
LLVM_BYE_LINK_INTO_TOOLS=ON, as it modifies the behavior of clang, which only
makes sense for testing purpose.
Still mark llvm/test/Feature/load_extension.ll as XFAIL because of a
ManagedStatic dependency that's going to be fixed in a seperate commit.

There's quite a lot of references to Polly in the LLVM CMake codebase. However
the registration pattern used by Polly could be useful to other external
projects: thanks to that mechanism it would be possible to develop LLVM
extension without touching the LLVM code base.
This patch has two effects:
1. Remove all code specific to Polly in the llvm/clang codebase, replaicing it
with a generic mechanism
2. Provide a generic mechanism to register compiler extensions.
A compiler extension is similar to a pass plugin, with the notable difference
that the compiler extension can be configured to be built dynamically (like
plugins) or statically (like regular passes).
As a result, people willing to add extra passes to clang/opt can do it using a
separate code repo, but still have their pass be linked in clang/opt as built-in
passes.
