Rafael Espindola 08aa78de63 Don't own the buffer in object::Binary.
Owning the buffer is somewhat inflexible. Some Binaries have sub Binaries
(like Archive) and we had to create dummy buffers just to handle that. It is
also a bad fit for IRObjectFile where the Module wants to own the buffer too.

Keeping this ownership would make supporting IR inside native objects
particularly painful.

This patch focuses in lib/Object. If something elsewhere used to own an Binary,
now it also owns a MemoryBuffer.

This patch introduces a few new types.

* MemoryBufferRef. This is just a pair of StringRefs for the data and name.
  This is to MemoryBuffer as StringRef is to std::string.
* OwningBinary. A combination of Binary and a MemoryBuffer. This is needed
  for convenience functions that take a filename and return both the
  buffer and the Binary using that buffer.

The C api now uses OwningBinary to avoid any change in semantics. I will start
a new thread to see if we want to change it and how.
