This reverts commit b6ba804f7775f89f230ee1e62526a2f8225c7966, effectively relanding commit 7d1565727dad3acb54fe76a908630843835d7bc8.
The original commit incorrectly called `ASTWriter::writeUnhashedControlBlock()` before `ASTWriter::collectNonAffectingInputFiles()`, causing SourceLocations/FileIDs in the pragma diagnostic mappings block to be invalid. This is now tested by `clang/test/Modules/diag-mappings-affecting.c`.
When loading (transitively) imported AST file, `ModuleManager::addModule()` first checks it has the expected signature via `readASTFileSignature()`. The signature is part of `UNHASHED_CONTROL_BLOCK`, which is placed at the end of the AST file. This means that just to verify signature of an AST file, we need to skip over all top-level blocks, paging in the whole AST file from disk. This is pretty slow.
This patch moves `UNHASHED_CONTROL_BLOCK` to the start of the AST file, so that it can be read more efficiently. To achieve this, we use dummy signature when first emitting the unhashed control block, and then backpatch the real signature at the end of the serialization process.
This speeds up dependency scanning by over 9% and significantly reduces run-to-run variability of my benchmarks.
Depends on D158572.

Summary:
This record is constructed by hashing the bytes of the AST block in a similiar
fashion to the SIGNATURE record. This new signature only means anything if the
AST block is fully relocatable, i.e. it does not embed absolute offsets within
the PCM file. This change ensure this does not happen by replacing these offsets
with offsets relative to the nearest relevant subblock of the AST block.
