Pavel Labath 0d0270ebc8 [Support] Use outs() in ToolOutputFile
Summary:
If the output filename was specified as "-", the ToolOutputFile class
would create a brand new raw_ostream object referring to the stdout.
This patch changes it to reuse the llvm::outs() singleton.

At the moment, this change should be "NFC", but it does enable other
enhancements, like the automatic stdout/stderr synchronization as
discussed on D80803.

I've checked the history, and I did not find any indication that this
class *has* to use a brand new stream object instead of outs() --
indeed, it is special-casing "-" in a number of places already, so this
change fits the pattern pretty well. I suspect the main reason for the
current state of affairs is that the class was originally introduced
(r111595, in 2010) as a raw_fd_ostream subclass, which made any other
solution impossible.

Another potential benefit of this patch is that it makes it possible to
move the raw_ostream class out of the business of special-casing "-" for
stdout handling. That state of affairs does not seem appropriate because
"-" is a valid filename (albeit hard to access with a lot of command
line tools) on most systems. Handling "-" in ToolOutputFile seems more
appropriate.

To make this possible, this patch changes the return type of
llvm::outs() and errs() to raw_fd_ostream&. Previously the functions
were constructing objects of that type, but returning a generic
raw_ostream reference. This makes it possible for new ToolOutputFile and
other code to use raw_fd_ostream methods like error() on the outs()
object. This does not seem like a bad thing (since stdout is a file
descriptor which can be redirected to anywhere, it makes sense to ask it
whether the writing was successful or if it supports seeking), and
indeed a lot of code was already depending on this fact via the
ToolOutputFile "back door".
