This reverts commit dfbcee286b9b96751014ebc5ba5290e42796be37.
This was causing unit tests to fail on Gentoo, see comments on
https://reviews.llvm.org/D152696.
We have recently started seeing deadlocks in death tests while running in an internal test environment.
Per the documentation here, there are issues with death tests in the presence of threads:
https://github.com/google/googletest/blob/main/docs/advanced.md#death-tests-and-threads
To avoid the deadlocks, I first tried appending `DeathTest` to the relevant test suite names, which has the effect of running these test suites before all other tests. However, this did not prevent the deadlocks.
This patch therefore uses the option of setting the `death_test_style` flag to `"threadsafe"` (see description in the page linked above under "Death Test Styles"), and this prevents the deadlocks.
The documentation notes that the "threadsafe" death test style "trades increased test execution time (potentially dramatically so) for improved thread safety". This is because, to execute a death test, "threadsafe" does a "fork + exec", then re-executes the current test in the child process, whereas the default "fast" death test style does only a fork (on those platforms that support it). However, as we have relatively few death tests, the increased execution time does not make a big difference in total test execution time in my testing.
Note that other projects, such as Chromium, also choose to set the "threadsafe" death test style globally:

This reverts commit 59052468c3e38cab15582cefbb5133fd4c2ffce5.
It looks like this patch breaks the build when compiler-rt is passed to
LLVM_ENABLE_PROJECTS instead of LLVM_ENABLE_RUNTIMES.
This will help improve the project's layering, so that sub-projects
that don't actually need any llvm code can still use googletest
without having to reference code in the llvm directory.
This will also make it easier to consolidate and simplify the standalone
build configurations.
