This is mostly useful for ARM64EC, which uses such symbols extensively.
One interesting quirk of ARM64EC is that we need to be able to emit weak
symbols that point at each other (so if either symbol is defined
elsewhere, both symbols point at the definition). This required a few
changes to the way we handle weak symbols on Windows.

All users of MCCodeEmitter::encodeInstruction use a raw_svector_ostream
to encode the instruction into a SmallVector. The raw_ostream however
incurs some overhead for the actual encoding.
This change allows an MCCodeEmitter to directly emit an instruction into
a SmallVector without using a raw_ostream and therefore allow for
performance improvments in encoding. A default path that uses existing
raw_ostream implementations is provided.

Before performing this change, I checked that `ByteAlignment` was never `0` inside `MCAsmStreamer:emitZeroFill` and `MCAsmStreamer::emitLocalCommonSymbol`.
I believe it is NFC as `0` values are illegal in `emitZeroFill` anyways, `Log2(ByteAlignment)` would be undefined.
And currently, all calls to `emitLocalCommonSymbol` are provably `>0`.

This breaks Windows bots with

Some shift operators are lacking a proper literal unit ('1ULL' instead of

There's a few relevant forward declarations in there that may require downstream
adding explicit includes:
llvm/MC/MCContext.h no longer includes llvm/BinaryFormat/ELF.h, llvm/MC/MCSubtargetInfo.h, llvm/MC/MCTargetOptions.h
llvm/MC/MCObjectStreamer.h no longer include llvm/MC/MCAssembler.h

Counting preprocessed lines required to rebuild llvm-project on my setup:

Which is significant and backs up the change in addition to the usual benefits of
decreasing coupling between headers and compilation units.

In preparation for passing the MCSubtargetInfo (STI) through to writeNops
so that it can use the STI in operation at the time, we need to record the
STI in operation when a MCAlignFragment may write nops as padding. The
STI is currently unused, a further patch will pass it through to
writeNops.
There are many places that can create an MCAlignFragment, in most cases
we can find out the STI in operation at the time. In a few places this
isn't possible as we are in initialisation or finalisation, or are
emitting constant pools. When possible I've tried to find the most
appropriate existing fragment to obtain the STI from, when none is
available use the per module STI.
For constant pools we don't actually need to use EmitCodeAlign as the
constant pools are data anyway so falling through into it via an
executable NOP is no better than falling through into data padding.
This is a prerequisite for D45962 which uses the STI to emit the
appropriate NOP for the STI. Which can differ per fragment.
Note that involves an interface change to InitSections. It is now
called initSections and requires a SubtargetInfo as a parameter.
Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D45961
This untangles the MCContext and the MCObjectFileInfo. There is a circular
dependency between MCContext and MCObjectFileInfo. Currently this dependency
also exists during construction: You can't contruct a MOFI without a MCContext
without constructing the MCContext with a dummy version of that MOFI first.
This removes this dependency during construction. In a perfect world,
MCObjectFileInfo wouldn't depend on MCContext at all, but only be stored in the
MCContext, like other MC information. This is future work.
This also shifts/adds more information to the MCContext making it more
available to the different targets. Namely:
- TargetTriple
- ObjectFileType
- SubtargetInfo

A SMLoc allows MCStreamer to report location-aware diagnostics, which
were previously done by adding SMLoc to various methods (e.g. emit*) in an ad-hoc way.
Since the file:line is most important, the column is less important and
the start token location suffices in many cases, this patch reverts

Summary:
This makes it so that IR files using triples without an environment work
out of the box, without normalizing them.
Typically, the MSVC behavior is more desirable. For example, it tends to
enable things like constant merging, use of associative comdats, etc.

to reflect the new license.
We understand that people may be surprised that we're moving the header
entirely to discuss the new license. We checked this carefully with the
Foundation's lawyer and we believe this is the correct approach.
Essentially, all code in the project is now made available by the LLVM
project under our new license, so you will see that the license headers
include that license only. Some of our contributors have contributed
code under our old license, and accordingly, we have retained a copy of
our old license notice in the top-level files in each project and
repository.

On darwin, all virtual sections have zerofill type, and having a
.zerofill directive in a non-virtual section is not allowed. Instead of
asserting, show a nicer error.
In order to use the equivalent of .zerofill in a non-virtual section,
the usage of .zero of .space is required.

On targets like Arm some relaxations may only be performed when certain
architectural features are available. As functions can be compiled with
differing levels of architectural support we must make a judgement on
whether we can relax based on the MCSubtargetInfo for the function. This
change passes through the MCSubtargetInfo for the function to
fixupNeedsRelaxation so that the decision on whether to relax can be made
per function. In this patch, only the ARM backend makes use of this
information. We must also pass the MCSubtargetInfo to applyFixup because
some fixups skip error checking on the assumption that relaxation has
occurred, to prevent code-generation errors applyFixup must see the same
MCSubtargetInfo as fixupNeedsRelaxation.
