According to the ABI for the Arm Architecture, the value for the
Tag_also_compatible_with eabi attribute is represented by an NTBS entry.
This string value, in turn, is composed of a pair of tag+value encoded
in one of two formats:
- ULEB128: tag, ULEB128: value, 0.
- ULEB128: tag, NBTS: data.
(See [[ 60a8eb8c55/addenda32/addenda32.rst (3373secondary-compatibility-tag) | section 3.3.7.3 on the Addenda to, and Errata in, the ABI for the Arm Architecture ]].)
Currently the Arm assembly parser and streamer ignore the encoding of
the attribute's NTBS value, which can result in incorrect attributes
being emitted in both assembly and object file outputs.
This patch fixes these issues by properly handing the value's encoding.
An update to llvm-readobj to properly handle the attribute's value will be
covered by a separate patch.

We use both -long-option and --long-option in tests. Switch to --long-option for consistency.
In the "llvm-readelf" mode, -long-option is discouraged as it conflicts with grouped short options and it is not accepted by GNU readelf.
While updating the tests, change llvm-readobj -s to llvm-readobj -S to reduce confusion ("s" is --section-headers in llvm-readobj but --symbols in llvm-readelf).

This patch was originally committed as r257885, but was reverted due to windows
failures. The cause of these failures has been fixed under r258677, hence
re-committing the original patch.

The string data for string-valued build attributes were being unconditionally
uppercased. There is no mention in the ARM ABI addenda about case conventions,
so it's technically implementation defined as to whether the data are
capitialised in some way or not. However, there are good reasons not to
captialise the data.
* It's less work.
* Some vendors may legitimately have case-sensitive checks for these
attributes which would fail on LLVM generated object files.
* There could be locale issues with uppercasing.
The original reasons for uppercasing appear to have stemmed from an
old codesourcery toolchain behaviour, see
http://comments.gmane.org/gmane.comp.compilers.llvm.cvs/87133
This patch makes the object file emitted no longer captialise string
data, it encodes as seen in the assembly source.

Parse tag names as well as expressions. The former is part of the
specification, the latter is for improved compatibility with the GNU assembler.
Fix attribute value handling to be comformant to the specification.

Add a Virtualization ARM subtarget feature along with adding proper build
attribute emission for Tag_Virtualization_use (encodes Virtualization and
TrustZone) and Tag_MPextension_use.
Also rework test/CodeGen/ARM/2010-10-19-mc-elf-objheader.ll testcase to
something that is more maintainable. This changes the focus of this
testcase away from testing CPU defaults (which is tested elsewhere), onto
specifically testing that attributes are encoded correctly.
