Teresa Johnson 048eeff265 [ThinLTO] Move loading of cache entry to client 
Summary:
Have the cache pass back the path to the cache entry when it
is ready to be loaded, instead of a buffer.

For gold-plugin we can simply pass this file back to gold directly,
which avoids expensive writing of a separate tmp file. Ensure
the cache entry is not deleted on cleanup by adjusting the setting
of the IsTemporary flags.

Moved the loading of the buffer into llvm-lto2 to maintain current
behavior.

The LLVM Gold LTO Plugin
========================

This directory contains a plugin that is designed to work with binutils
gold linker. At present time, this is not the default linker in
binutils, and the default build of gold does not support plugins.

See docs/GoldPlugin.html for complete build and usage instructions.

NOTE: libLTO and LLVMgold aren't built without PIC because they would fail
to link on x86-64 with a relocation error: PIC and non-PIC can't be combined.
As an alternative to passing --enable-pic, you can use 'make ENABLE_PIC=1' in
your entire LLVM build.
