[SampleFDO] New hierarchical discriminator for Flow Sensitive SampleFDO
This is mainly for ProfileData part of change. It will load
FS Profile when such profile is detected. For an extbinary format profile,
create_llvm_prof tool will add a flag to profile summary section.
For other format profiles, the users need to use an internal option
(-profile-isfs) to tell the compiler that the profile uses FS discriminators.
This patch also simplified the bit API used by FS discriminators.

This patch implements first part of Flow Sensitive SampleFDO (FSAFDO).
It has the following changes:
(1) disable current discriminator encoding scheme,
(2) new hierarchical discriminator for FSAFDO.
For this patch, option "-enable-fs-discriminator=true" turns on the new
functionality. Option "-enable-fs-discriminator=false" (the default)
keeps the current SampleFDO behavior. When the fs-discriminator is
enabled, we insert a flag variable, namely, llvm_fs_discriminator, to
the object. This symbol will checked by create_llvm_prof tool, and used
to generate a profile with FS-AFDO discriminators enabled. If this
happens, for an extbinary format profile, create_llvm_prof tool
will add a flag to profile summary section.
