Test updates were performed using:
https://gist.github.com/nikic/98357b71fd67756b0f064c9517b62a34
These are only the test updates where the test passed without
further modification (which is almost all of them, as the backend
is largely pointer-type agnostic).
This relands commit 4d8d2580c53e130c3c3dd3877384301e3c495554.
The major change here is using 'addUsedIfAvailable<BasicBlockSectionsProfileReader>()` to make sure we don't change the pipeline tests.

Today, text section prefixes (none, .unlikely, .hot, and .unkown) are determined based on PGO profile. However, Propeller may deem a function hot when PGO doesn't. Besides, when `-Wl,-keep-text-section-prefix=true` Propeller cannot enforce a global section ordering as the linker can only reorder sections within each output section (.text, .text.hot, .text.unlikely).
This patch promotes all functions with Propeller profiles (functions listed in the basic-block-sections profile) to .text.hot. The feature is hidden behind the flag `--bbsections-guided-section-prefix` which defaults to `true`.
The new implementation refactors the parsing of basic block sections profile into a new `BasicBlockSectionsProfileReader` analysis pass. This allows us to use the information earlier in `CodeGenPrepare` in order to set the functions text prefix. `BasicBlockSectionsProfileReader` will be used both by `BasicBlockSections` pass and `CodeGenPrepare`.

Every basic block section symbol created by -fbasic-block-sections will contain
".__part." to know that this symbol corresponds to a basic block fragment of
the function.
This patch solves two problems:
a) Like D89617, we want function symbols with suffixes to be properly qualified
so that external tools like profile aggregators know exactly what this
symbol corresponds to.
b) The current basic block naming just adds a ".N" to the symbol name where N is
some integer. This collides with how clang creates __cxx_global_var_init.N.
clang creates these symbol names to call constructor functions and basic
block symbol naming should not use the same style.
Fixed all the test cases and added an extra test for __cxx_global_var_init
breakage.

This patch changes the functionality of AsmPrinter to name the basic block end labels as LBB_END${i}_${j}, with ${i} being the identifier for the function and ${j} being the identifier for the basic block. The new naming scheme is consistent with how basic block labels are named (.LBB${i}_{j}), and how function end symbol are named (.Lfunc_end${i}) and helps to write stronger tests for the upcoming patch for BB-Info section (as proposed in https://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/llvm-dev/2020-July/143512.html). The end label is used with basicblock-labels (BB-Info section in future) and basicblock-sections to compute the size of basic blocks and basic block sections, respectively. For BB sections, the section containing the entry basic block will not have a BB end label since it already gets the function end-label.
This label is cached for every basic block (CachedEndMCSymbol) like the label for the basic block (CachedMCSymbol).

D68049 created options for basic block sections: -fbasic-block-sections=,
-funique-basic-block-section-names. Rename options in llc and lld (--lto-)
to be consistent. Specifically,
+ Rename basicblock-sections to basic-block-sections
+ Rename unique-bb-section-names to unique-basic-block-section-names
