[BOLT] Expose external entry count for functions (#141674)
Record the number of function invocations from external code - code
outside the binary, which may include JIT code and DSOs. Accounting
external entry counts improves the fidelity of call graph flow 
conservation analysis.

Test Plan: updated shrinkwrapping.test

[BOLT] Improve profile quality reporting (#130810)
Improve profile quality reporting by 1) fixing a format issue for small
binaries, 2) adding new stats for exception handling usage, 3) excluding
selected blocks when computing the CFG flow conservation score.

More specifically for 3), we are excluding blocks that satisfy at least
one of the following characteristics: a) is a landing pad, b) has at
least one landing pad with non-zero execution counts, c) ends with a
recursive call. The reason for a) and b) is because the thrower -->
landing pad edges are not explicitly represented in the CFG. The reason
for c) is because the call-continuation fallthrough edge count is not
important in case of recursive calls.

Modified test `bolt/test/X86/profile-quality-reporting.test`.
Added test `bolt/test/X86/profile-quality-reporting-small-binary.s`.

[BOLT] Report flow conservation scores (#127954)
Add two additional profile quality stats for CG (call graph) and CFG
(control flow graph) flow conservations besides the CFG discontinuity
stats introduced in #109683. The two new stats quantify how different
"in-flow" is from "out-flow" in the following cases where they should be
equal. The smaller the reported stats, the better the flow conservations
are.

CG flow conservation: for each function that is not a program entry, the
number of times the function is called according to CG ("in-flow")
should be equal to the number of times the transition from an entry
basic block of the function to another basic block within the function
is recorded ("out-flow").

CFG flow conservation: for each basic block that is not a function entry
or exit, the number of times the transition into this basic block from
another basic block within the function is recorded ("in-flow") should
be equal to the number of times the transition from this basic block to
another basic block within the function is recorded ("out-flow").

Use `-v=1` for more detailed bucketed stats, and use `-v=2` to dump
functions / basic blocks with bad flow conservations.
