Shoaib Meenai c6c2e0aed2 [runtimes] Allow LLVM_BUILTIN_TARGETS to include Darwin
We have two ways of using the runtimes build setup to build the
builtins. You can either have an empty LLVM_BUILTIN_TARGETS (or have it
include the "default" target), in which case builtin_default_target is
called to set up the default target, or you can have actual triples in
LLVM_BUILTIN_TARGETS, in which case builtin_register_target is called
for each triple. builtin_default_target lets you build the builtins for
Darwin (assuming your default triple is Darwin); builtin_register_target
does not.

I don't understand the reason for this distinction. The Darwin builtins
build is special in that a single CMake configure handles building the
builtins for multiple platforms (e.g. macOS, iPhoneSimulator, and iOS)
and architectures (e.g. arm64, armv7, and x86_64). Consequently, if you
specify multiple Darwin triples in LLVM_BUILTIN_TARGETS, expecting each
configure to only build for that particular triple, it won't work.
However, if you specify a *single* x86_64-apple-darwin triple in
LLVM_BUILTIN_TARGETS, that single configure will build the builtins for
all Darwin targets, exactly the same way that the default target would.
The only difference between the configuration for the default target and
the x86_64-apple-darwin triple is that the latter runs the configuration
with `-DCOMPILER_RT_DEFAULT_TARGET_ONLY=ON`, but that makes no
difference for Apple targets (none of the CMake codepaths which have
different behavior based on that variable are run for Apple targets).

I tested this by running two builtins builds on my Mac, one with the
default target and one with the x86_64-apple-darwin19.5.0 target (which
is the default target triple for my clang). The only relevant
CMakeCache.txt difference was the following, and as discussed above, it
has no effect on the actual build for Apple targets:

```
-//Default triple for which compiler-rt runtimes will be built.
-COMPILER_RT_DEFAULT_TARGET_TRIPLE:STRING=x86_64-apple-darwin19.5.0
+//No help, variable specified on the command line.
+COMPILER_RT_DEFAULT_TARGET_ONLY:UNINITIALIZED=ON
```

Furthermore, when I add the `-D` flag to compiler-rt's libtool
invocations, the libraries produced by the two builds are *identical*.

If anything, I would expect builtin_register_target to complain if you
tried specifying a triple for a particular Apple platform triple (e.g.
macosx), since that's the scenario in which it won't work as you want.
The generic darwin triple should be fine though, as best as I can tell.
I'm happy to add the error for specific Apple platform triples, either
in this diff or in a follow-up.
