`convertCallToIndirectCall` applies the PLTCall optimization and returns
an (updated if needed) iterator to the converted call instruction. Since
AArch64 requires to inject additional instructions to implement this
pass, the relevant BasicBlock and an iterator was passed to the
`convertCallToIndirectCall`.
`NumCallsOptimized` is updated only on successful application of the
pass.
Tests:
- Inputs/plt-tailcall.c: an example of a tail call optimized PLT call.
- AArch64/plt-call.test: it is the actual A64 test, that runs the
PLTCall optimization on the above input file and verifies the
application of the pass to the calls: 'printf' and 'puts'.
Make core BOLT functionality more friendly to being used as a
library instead of in our standalone driver llvm-bolt. To
accomplish this, we augment BinaryContext with journaling streams
that are to be used by most BOLT code whenever something needs to
be logged to the screen. Users of the library can decide if logs
should be printed to a file, no file or to the screen, as
before. To illustrate this, this patch adds a new option
`--log-file` that allows the user to redirect BOLT logging to a
file on disk or completely hide it by using
`--log-file=/dev/null`. Future BOLT code should now use
`BinaryContext::outs()` for printing important messages instead of
`llvm::outs()`. A new test log.test enforces this by verifying that
no strings are print to screen once the `--log-file` option is
used.
In previous patches we also added a new BOLTError class to report
common and fatal errors, so code shouldn't call exit(1) now. To
easily handle problems as before (by quitting with exit(1)),
callers can now use
`BinaryContext::logBOLTErrorsAndQuitOnFatal(Error)` whenever code
needs to deal with BOLT errors. To test this, we have fatal.s
that checks we are correctly quitting and printing a fatal error
to the screen.
Because this is a significant change by itself, not all code was
yet ported. Code from Profiler libs (DataAggregator and friends)
still print errors directly to screen.

As part of the effort to refactor old error handling code that
would directly call exit(1), in this patch we change the
interface to `BinaryFunctionPass` to return an Error on
`runOnFunctions()`. This gives passes the ability to report a
serious problem to the caller (RewriteInstance class), so the
caller may decide how to best handle the exceptional situation.

As we are moving towards support for multiple fragments, loops that
iterate over all basic blocks of a function, but do not depend on the
order of basic blocks in the final layout, should iterate over binary
functions directly, rather than the layout.
Eventually, all loops using the layout list should either iterate over
the function, or be aware of multiple layouts. This patch replaces
references to binary function's block layout with the binary function
itself where only little code changes are necessary.

Summary:
Moves source files into separate components, and make explicit
component dependency on each other, so LLVM build system knows how to
build BOLT in BUILD_SHARED_LIBS=ON.
Please use the -c merge.renamelimit=230 git option when rebasing your
work on top of this change.
To achieve this, we create a new library to hold core IR files (most
classes beginning with Binary in their names), a new library to hold
Utils, some command line options shared across both RewriteInstance
and core IR files, a new library called Rewrite to hold most classes
concerned with running top-level functions coordinating the binary
rewriting process, and a new library called Profile to hold classes
dealing with profile reading and writing.
To remove the dependency from BinaryContext into X86-specific classes,
we do some refactoring on the BinaryContext constructor to receive a
reference to the specific backend directly from RewriteInstance. Then,
the dependency on X86 or AArch64-specific classes is transfered to the
Rewrite library. We can't have the Core library depend on targets
because targets depend on Core (which would create a cycle).
Files implementing the entry point of a tool are transferred to the
tools/ folder. All header files are transferred to the include/
folder. The src/ folder was renamed to lib/.
