The GSYM code alwasy logging to streams even in quiet mode. When in quiet mode we would use the "nulls()" stream to avoid logging to the terminal, but this still caused logging functions to be called on DWARFDie objects and other messages which were quite expensive and not needed if we weren't logging anything. This patch switches some logs in performant areas to be "raw_ostream *" values and if the ostream pointer is NULL, then we don't call the expensive logging functions on DWARFDie and other objects which will improve performance.

llvm-gsymutil was maintaining an address ranges collection behind a mutex and having the multi-threaded code access this and hold the mutex was causing slowdown when converting DWARF to GSYM. This patch does the following:
- removes the "Ranges" variable from the GsymCreator and any functions and places that used it
- clients don't try to detect if a function has been added for an address range, we now remove any inferior copies of information in the GsymCreator::finalize() routine as was done before, we just have more items to remove, though performance is greator due to less mutex thread locking
- after I started adding all of the inferior funtion info objects the previous patch that tried to remove infrior debug info had bugs in it, so I replace the removeIfBinary() function in GsymCreator with a more efficient and easier to debug way to do things which copies items from the GsymCreator::Funcs into a new vector of FunctionInfo objects and then replaces GsymCreator::Funcs at the end.
- Sorting of FunctionInfo objects has been modified to also compare InlineInfo objects. We found cases where LTO was ruining inline function address ranges and we ended up with a variety of FunctionInfo objects for the same range that had varying amounts of valid debug info. This patch now ensure that two function info objects with different inline info for the same function address range, the best one will be picked to ensure the greatest fidelity.
- If we detect that a DW_TAG_subprogram has inline functions and after parsing it, we don't end up with any valid inline information, we set the optional to std::nullopt to avoid emitting empty inline information and wasting space.
My tests show a 200% perf increase on M1 macs and a 100% performance increase on linux machines for the same complex large DWARF input binary.

Summary:
In D77860, we have changed `getSymbolFlags()` return type to `Expected<uint32_t>`.
This change helps bubble the error further up the stack.

Summary:
This patch creates the llvm-gsymutil binary that can convert object files to GSYM using the --convert <path> option. It can also dump and lookup addresses within GSYM files that have been saved to disk.
To dump a file:
llvm-gsymutil /path/to/a.gsym
To perform address lookups, like with atos, on GSYM files:
llvm-gsymutil --address 0x1000 --address 0x1100 /path/to/a.gsym
To convert a mach-o or ELF file, including any DWARF debug info contained within the object files:
llvm-gsymutil --convert /path/to/a.out --out-file /path/to/a.out.gsym
Conversion highlights:
- convert DWARF debug info in mach-o or ELF files to GSYM
- convert symbols in symbol table to GSYM and don't convert symbols that overlap with DWARF debug info
- extract UUID from object files
- extract .text (read + execute) section address ranges and filter out any DWARF or symbols that don't fall in those ranges.
- if .text sections are extracted, and if the last gsym::FunctionInfo object has no size, cap the size to the end of the section the function was contained in
Dumping GSYM files will dump all sections of the GSYM file in textual format.
