9d0754ada5dbbc0c009bcc2f7824488419cc5530 dropped MC support required for
optimal macro-fusion alignment in BOLT. Remove the support in BOLT as
performance measurements with large binaries didn't show a significant
improvement.
Test Plan:
macro-fusion alignment was never upstreamed, so no upstream tests are
affected.
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.

Test Plan: NFC
BOLT uses `MCAsmLayout` to calculate the output values of functions and
basic blocks. This means output values are calculated based on a
pre-linking state and any changes to symbol values during linking will
cause incorrect values to be used.
This issue can be triggered by enabling linker relaxation on RISC-V.
Since linker relaxation can remove instructions, symbol values may
change. This causes, among other things, the symbol table created by
BOLT in the output executable to be incorrect.
This patch solves this issue by using `BOLTLinker` to get symbol values
instead of `MCAsmLayout`. This way, output values are calculated based
on a post-linking state. To make sure the linker can update all
necessary symbols, this patch also makes sure all these symbols are not
marked as temporary so that they end-up in the object file's symbol
table.
Note that this patch only deals with symbols of binary functions
(`BinaryFunction::updateOutputValues`). The technique described above
turned out to be too expensive for basic block symbols so those are
handled differently in D155604.

BOLT uses MCAsmLayout to calculate the output values of basic blocks.
This means output values are calculated based on a pre-linking state and
any changes to symbol values during linking will cause incorrect values
to be used.
This issue was first addressed in D154604 by adding all basic block
symbols to the symbol table for the linker to resolve them. However, the
runtime overhead of handling this huge symbol table turned out to be
prohibitively large.
This patch solves the issue in a different way. First, a temporary
section containing [input address, output symbol] pairs is emitted to the
intermediary object file. The linker will resolve all these references
so we end up with a section of [input address, output address] pairs.
This section is then parsed and used to:
- Replace BinaryBasicBlock::OffsetTranslationTable
- Replace BinaryFunction::InputOffsetToAddressMap
- Update BinaryBasicBlock::OutputAddressRange
Note that the reason this is more performant than the previous attempt
is that these symbol references do not cause entries to be added to the
symbol table. Instead, section-relative references are used for the
relocations.

This has the following advantages:
- std::shared_timed_mutex is macOS 10.12+ only. llvm::sys::RWMutex
automatically switches to a different implementation internally
when targeting older macOS versions.
- bolt only needs std::shared_mutex, not std::shared_timed_mutex.
llvm::sys::RWMutex automatically uses std::shared_mutex internally
where available.
std::shared_mutex and RWMutex have the same API, so no code changes
other than types and includes are needed.

A const-qualified reference to function layout allows accessing
non-const qualified basic blocks on a const-qualified function. This
patch adds or removes const-qualifiers where necessary to indicate where
basic blocks are used in a non-const manner.

When a jump table is recovered in postProcessIndirectBranches(),
successors for the containing basic block are added in random order.
Make the order deterministic.

Summary:
If `addUnknownControlFlow` in `BinaryFunction::postProcessIndirectBranches`
is invoked with a basic block that has multiple edges to the same successor,
it leads to an assertion in `BinaryBasicBlock::removePredecessor`.
For basic blocks with multiple edges to the same successor, the default
behavior of removePredecessor is to remove all occurrences of the
predecessor block in its predecessor list (Multiple=true).
Example:
```A -> B (two edges)
A->removeAllSuccessors()
for each successor of block A: // B twice
// this removes both occurrences of A in B's predecessors list
B->removePredecessor(A);
// this invocation triggers an assert as A is no longer in B's
// predecessor list
B->removePredecessor(A);
```
This issue is not fixed by NormalizeCFG as `removeAllSuccessor` is called
earlier (from `buildCFG` -> `postProcessIndirectBranches`).
Solve this issue by collecting the successors into a set (`SmallPtrSet`) first,
before invoking `SuccessorBB->removePredecessor(this)`.

component dependency on each other, so LLVM build system knows how to
build BOLT in BUILD_SHARED_LIBS=ON.

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/.
