## Purpose
This patch is one in a series of code-mods that annotate LLVM’s public
interface for export. This patch annotates the `llvm/ObjCopy` and
`llvm/Object` libraries. These annotations currently have no meaningful
impact on the LLVM build; however, they are a prerequisite to support an
LLVM Windows DLL (shared library) build.
## Background
This effort is tracked in #109483. Additional context is provided in
[this
discourse](https://discourse.llvm.org/t/psa-annotating-llvm-public-interface/85307),
and documentation for `LLVM_ABI` and related annotations is found in the
LLVM repo
[here](https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/blob/main/llvm/docs/InterfaceExportAnnotations.rst).
The bulk of these changes were generated automatically using the
[Interface Definition Scanner (IDS)](https://github.com/compnerd/ids)
tool, followed formatting with `git clang-format`.
The following manual adjustments were also applied after running IDS on
Linux:
- Add `#include "llvm/Support/Compiler.h"` to files where it was not
auto-added by IDS due to no pre-existing block of include statements.
- Manually annotate template class `CommonArchiveMemberHeader` with
`LLVM_ABI` since IDS ignores templates and this is the simplest solution
for DLL-exporting its child classes because it has methods defined
out-of-line. Seems to be an uncommon situation.
- Explicitly make `Archive` class non-copyable due to the class-level
`LLVM_ABI` annotation.
- Add default constructor to `ELFFile` so it can be instantiated for
DLL-export as a base class.
- Add `LLVM_TEMPLATE_ABI` and `LLVM_EXPORT_TEMPLATE` to exported
instantiated templates.
## Validation
Local builds and tests to validate cross-platform compatibility. This
included llvm, clang, and lldb on the following configurations:
- Windows with MSVC
- Windows with Clang
- Linux with GCC
- Linux with Clang
- Darwin with Clang
ErrorAsOutParameter's Error* constructor supports cases where an Error might not
be passed in (because in the calling context it's known that this call won't
fail). Most clients always have an Error present however, and for them an Error&
overload is more convenient.
These symbols are implicitly imported from the LLVM shared library by
llvm-objdump on ELF like platforms, but for windows they need to be
explicitly exported when LLVM is built as shared library.
I also add visibility macros for XCOFFObjectFile::getExceptionEntries
that can't automatically be added by clang tooling since it doesn't
store the source locations for explicit function template
instantiations.
The section headers for XCOFF files have a subtype flag for Dwarf
sections. This PR updates obj2yaml, yaml2obj, and llvm-readobj so that
they recognize the subtype.

This is actually not an NFC as isFunction() does not return false for
some "invalid" object, instead it returns the errors to its caller. But
since there is no such invalid object in the LIT tests, so no case
changes.
Computing the symbol size as the gap between sorted symbols are not
right for XCOFF.
For XCOFF, the size info is stored in aux symbol and can be got from
existing XCOFF interface `getSymbolSize()`.
This patch changes XCOFFObjectFile to call this API to get sizes for
symbols.
For Power on Linux (both LE and BE), ELFObjectFile returns 'future' as
default CPU type if mcpu is not specified, so that all necessary
features will be enabled in MC.
While for XCOFF, the default CPU type is always null, which makes tools
like llvm-objdump not able to recognize prefixed instructions, unless
specifying --mcpu=pwr10 or --mattr=+prefix-instrs manually.

SubtargetFeature.h is currently part of MC while it doesn't depend on
anything in MC. Since some LLVM components might have the need to work
with target features without necessarily needing MC, it might be
worthwhile to move SubtargetFeature.h to a different location. This will
reduce the dependencies of said components.
Note that I choose TargetParser as the destination because that's where
Triple lives and SubtargetFeatures feels related to that.
This issues came up during a JITLink review (D149522). JITLink would
like to avoid a dependency on MC while still needing to store target
features.

Use deduction guides instead of helper functions.
The only non-automatic changes have been:
1. ArrayRef(some_uint8_pointer, 0) needs to be changed into ArrayRef(some_uint8_pointer, (size_t)0) to avoid an ambiguous call with ArrayRef((uint8_t*), (uint8_t*))
2. CVSymbol sym(makeArrayRef(symStorage)); needed to be rewritten as CVSymbol sym{ArrayRef(symStorage)}; otherwise the compiler is confused and thinks we have a (bad) function prototype. There was a few similar situation across the codebase.
3. ADL doesn't seem to work the same for deduction-guides and functions, so at some point the llvm namespace must be explicitly stated.
4. The "reference mode" of makeArrayRef(ArrayRef<T> &) that acts as no-op is not supported (a constructor cannot achieve that).
Per reviewers' comment, some useless makeArrayRef have been removed in the process.
This is a follow-up to https://reviews.llvm.org/D140896 that introduced
the deduction guides.

The Object library currently has three identical functions that translate a
Twine into a parser error. Until recently these functions have coexisted
peacefully, but since D110320 Clang with enabled modules is now diagnosing that
we have several definitions of `createError` in Object.
This patch just merges them all and puts them into Object's `Error.h` where the
error code for `parse_failed` is also defined which seems cleaner and unbreaks
the bots.
