Previously, when loading an object file, RuntimeDyld (1) took ownership of the
ObjectFile instance (and associated MemoryBuffer), (2) potentially modified the
object in-place, and (3) returned an ObjectImage that managed ownership of the
now-modified object and provided some convenience methods. This scheme accreted
over several years as features were tacked on to RuntimeDyld, and was both
unintuitive and unsafe (See e.g. http://llvm.org/PR20722).
This patch fixes the issue by removing all ownership and in-place modification
of object files from RuntimeDyld. Existing behavior, including debugger
registration, is preserved.
Noteworthy changes include:
(1) ObjectFile instances are now passed to RuntimeDyld by const-ref.
(2) The ObjectImage and ObjectBuffer classes have been removed entirely, they
existed to model ownership within RuntimeDyld, and so are no longer needed.
(3) RuntimeDyld::loadObject now returns an instance of a new class,
RuntimeDyld::LoadedObjectInfo, which can be used to construct a modified
object suitable for registration with the debugger, following the existing
debugger registration scheme.
(4) The JITRegistrar class has been removed, and the GDBRegistrar class has been
re-written as a JITEventListener.
This should fix http://llvm.org/PR20722 .

This patch removes the old JIT memory manager (which does not provide any
useful functionality now that the old JIT is gone), and migrates the few
remaining clients over to SectionMemoryManager.

MCJIT remote execution (ChildTarget+RemoteTargetExternal) protocol was in
dire need of refactoring. It was fail-prone, had no error reporting and
implemented the same message logic on every single function.
This patch rectifies it, and makes it work on ARM, where it was randomly
failing. Other architectures shall profit from this change as well, making
their buildbots and releases more reliable.

- Mark tests as XFAIL:cygming in test/ExecutionEngine/MCJIT/remote.
Rather to suppress them, I'd like to leave them running as XFAIL.
- Revert r193472. RecordMemoryManager no longer resolves __main on cygming.
There are a couple of issues.
- X86 Codegen emits "call __main" in @main for targeting cygming.
It is useless in JIT. FYI, tests are passing when emitting __main is disabled.
- Current remote JIT does not resolve any symbols in child context.
FIXME: __main should be disabled, or remote JIT should resolve __main.
