At the last LLVM dev meeting we had a debug info for optimized code
BoF session. In that session I presented some graphs that showed how
the quality of the debug info produced by LLVM changed over the last
couple of years. This is a cleaned up version of the patch I used to
collect the this data. It is implemented as an extension of
llvm-dwarfdump, adding a new --statistics option. The intended
use-case is to automatically run this on the debug info produced by,
e.g., our bots, to identify eyebrow-raising changes or regressions
introduced by new transformations that we could act on.
In the current form, two kinds of data are being collected:
- The number of variables that have a debug location versus the number
of variables in total (this takes into account inlined instances of
the same function, so if a variable is completely missing form only
one instance it will be found).
- The PC range covered by variable location descriptions versus the PC
range of all variables' containing lexical scopes.
The output format is versioned and extensible, so I'm looking forward
to both bug fixes and ideas for other data that would be interesting
to track.

This moves the cmake configuration for fuzzers in LLVM to a new macro,
add_llvm_fuzzer. This will make it easier to keep things consistent
while implementing llvm.org/pr34314.
I've also made a couple of minor functional changes here:
- the fuzzers now use add_llvm_executable rather than add_llvm_tool.
This means they won't create install targets and stuff like that,
because those made little sense for these fuzzers.
- I've grouped these under "Fuzzers" rather than in with "Tools" for
people who build with IDEs.

Summary:
Based on Fred's patch here: https://reviews.llvm.org/D6771
I can't seem to commandeer the old review, so I'm creating a new one.
With that change the locations exrpessions are pretty printed inline in the
DIE tree. The output looks like this for debug_loc entries:
DW_AT_location [DW_FORM_data4] (0x00000000
0x0000000000000001 - 0x000000000000000b: DW_OP_consts +3
0x000000000000000b - 0x0000000000000012: DW_OP_consts +7
0x0000000000000012 - 0x000000000000001b: DW_OP_reg0 RAX, DW_OP_piece 0x4
0x000000000000001b - 0x0000000000000024: DW_OP_breg5 RDI+0)
And like this for debug_loc.dwo entries:
DW_AT_location [DW_FORM_sec_offset] (0x00000000
Addr idx 2 (w/ length 190): DW_OP_consts +0, DW_OP_stack_value
Addr idx 3 (w/ length 23): DW_OP_reg0 RAX, DW_OP_piece 0x4)
Simple locations without ranges are printed inline:
DW_AT_location [DW_FORM_block1] (DW_OP_reg4 RSI, DW_OP_piece 0x4, DW_OP_bit_piece 0x20 0x0)
The debug_loc(.dwo) dumping in changed accordingly to factor the code.

The fuzzer is very simple, but not quite useful at the moment: it's unable
to discover "interesting" examples, as LLVMObject library is terrible at
error recovery, calling "report_fatal_error()" far too often.

In preparation for adding PDB support to LLVM, this moves the
DWARF parsing code to its own subdirectory under DebugInfo, and
renames LLVMDebugInfo to LLVMDebugInfoDWARF.
This is purely a mechanical / build system change.

This introduces a new library to LLVM: libDebugInfo. It will provide debug information
parsing to LLVM. Much of the design and some of the code is taken from the LLDB project.
It also contains an llvm-dwarfdump tool that can dump the abbrevs and DIEs from an
object file. It can be used to write tests for DWARF input and output easily.
