Without this extra flag we can't distingish between stub functions and
functions that happen to have address 0 (relative to __table_base).
Adding this flag bit the base symbol class actually avoids growing the
SymbolUnion struct which would not be true if we added it to the
FunctionSymbol subclass (due to bitbacking).
The previous approach of setting it's table index to zero worked for
normal static relocations but not for `-fPIC` code.

In https://reviews.llvm.org/D89072 I added static const data members

This patch fixes the empty subsection issue.

Local values are constants or addresses that can't be folded into
the instruction that uses them. FastISel materializes these in a
"local value" area that always dominates the current insertion
point, to try to avoid materializing these values more than once
(per block).
https://reviews.llvm.org/D43093 added code to sink these local
value instructions to their first use, which has two beneficial
effects. One, it is likely to avoid some unnecessary spills and
reloads; two, it allows us to attach the debug location of the
user to the local value instruction. The latter effect can
improve the debugging experience for debuggers with a "set next
statement" feature, such as the Visual Studio debugger and PS4
debugger, because instructions to set up constants for a given
statement will be associated with the appropriate source line.
There are also some constants (primarily addresses) that could be
produced by no-op casts or GEP instructions; the main difference
from "local value" instructions is that these are values from
separate IR instructions, and therefore could have multiple users
across multiple basic blocks. D43093 avoided sinking these, even
though they were emitted to the same "local value" area as the
other instructions. The patch comment for D43093 states:
Local values may also be used by no-op casts, which adds the
register to the RegFixups table. Without reversing the RegFixups
map direction, we don't have enough information to sink these
instructions.
This patch undoes most of D43093, and instead flushes the local
value map after(*) every IR instruction, using that instruction's
debug location. This avoids sometimes incorrect locations used
previously, and emits instructions in a more natural order.
This does mean materialized values are not re-used across IR
instruction boundaries; however, only about 5% of those values
were reused in an experimental self-build of clang.
(*) Actually, just prior to the next instruction. It seems like
it would be cleaner the other way, but I was having trouble
getting that to work.

This patch:
- adds an ld64.lld.darwinnew symlink for lld, to go with f2710d4b576,
so that `clang -fuse-ld=lld.darwinnew` can be used to test new
Mach-O lld while it's in bring-up. (The expectation is that we'll
remove this again once new Mach-O lld is the defauld and only Mach-O
lld.)
- lets the clang driver know if the linker is lld (currently
only triggered if `-fuse-ld=lld` or `-fuse-ld=lld.darwinnew` is
passed). Currently only used for the next point, but could be used
to implement other features that need close coordination between
compiler and linker, e.g. having a diag for calling `clang++` instead
of `clang` when link errors are caused by a missing C++ stdlib.
- lets the clang driver pass `-demangle` to Mach-O lld (both old and
new), in addition to ld64
- implements -demangle for new Mach-O lld
- changes demangleItanium() to accept _Z, __Z, ___Z, ____Z prefixes
(and updates one test added in D68014). Mach-O has an extra
underscore for symbols, and the three (or, on Mach-O, four)
underscores are used for block names.

This patch adds support for creating Guard Address-Taken IAT Entry Tables (.giats$y sections) in object files, matching the behavior of MSVC. These contain lists of address-taken imported functions, which are used by the linker to create the final GIATS table.

This is a more full featured version of ``--allow-undefined``.
The semantics of the different methods are as follows:
report-all:
Report all unresolved symbols. This is the default. Normally the
linker will generate an error message for each reported unresolved
symbol but the option ``--warn-unresolved-symbols`` can change this
to a warning.
ignore-all:
Resolve all undefined symbols to zero. For data and function
addresses this is trivial. For direct function calls, the linker
will generate a trapping stub function in place of the undefined
function.
import-functions:
Generate WebAssembly imports for any undefined functions. Undefined
data symbols are resolved to zero as in `ignore-all`. This
corresponds to the legacy ``--allow-undefined`` flag.
The plan is to followup with a new mode called `import-dynamic` which
allows for statically linked binaries to refer to both data and
functions symbols from the embedder.

`try ... catch` in an inline function produces `.gcc_except_table.*` in a COMDAT
group with GCC or newer Clang (since D83655). For --gc-sections, currently we
scan `.eh_frame` pieces and mark liveness of such a `.gcc_except_table.*` and
then the associated `.text.*` (if a member in a section group is retained, the
others should be retained as well).
Essentially all `.text.*` and `.gcc_except_table.*` compiled from inline
functions with `try ... catch` cannot be discarded by the imprecise
--gc-sections. Compared with the state before D83655, the output
`.gcc_except_table` is smaller (non-prevailing copies in COMDAT groups can now
be discarded) but `.text` may be larger, i.e. size regression.
This patch teaches the .eh_frame piece scanning code to not mark
`.gcc_except_table` in a section group, thus allow unused `.text.*` and
`.gcc_except_table.*` in a section group to be discarded.
Note, non-group `.gcc_except_table` can still not be discarded. That is the status quo.

Input sections `.ctors/.ctors.N` may go to either the output section `.init_array` or the output section `.ctors`:
* output `.ctors`: currently we sort them by name. This patch changes to sort by priority from high to low. If N in `.ctors.N` is in the form of %05u, there is no semantic difference. Actually GCC and Clang do use %05u. (In the test `ctors_dtors_priority.s` and Gold's test `gold/testsuite/script_test_14.s`, we can see %03u, but they are not really produced by compilers.)
* output `.init_array`: users can provide an input section description `SORT_BY_INIT_PRIORITY(.init_array.* .ctors.*)` to mix `.init_array.*` and `.ctors.*`. This can make .init_array.N and .ctors.(65535-N) interchangeable.
With this change, users can mix `.ctors.N` and `.init_array.N` in `.init_array` (PR44698 and PR48096) with linker scripts. As an example:
```
SECTIONS {
.init_array : {
*(SORT_BY_INIT_PRIORITY(.init_array.* .ctors.*))

According to
https://sourceware.org/binutils/docs/ld/Input-Section-Basics.html#Input-Section-Basics
for `*(.a .b)`, the order should match the input order:
* for `ld 1.o 2.o`, sections from 1.o precede sections from 2.o
* within a file, `.a` and `.b` appear in the section header table order
This patch implements the behavior. The interaction with `SORT*` and --sort-section is:
Matched sections are ordered by radix sort with the keys being `(SORT*, --sort-section, input order)`,
where `SORT*` (if present) is most significant.
> Note, multiple `SORT*` within an input section description has undocumented and
> confusing behaviors in GNU ld:
> https://sourceware.org/pipermail/binutils/2020-November/114083.html
> Therefore multiple `SORT*` is not the focus for this patch but
> this patch still strives to have an explainable behavior.
As an example, we partition `SORT(a.*) b.* c.* SORT(d.*)`, into
`SORT(a.*) | b.* c.* | SORT(d.*)` and perform sorting within groups. Sections
matched by patterns between two `SORT*` are sorted by input order. If
--sort-alignment is given, they are sorted by --sort-alignment, breaking tie by
input order.
This patch also allows a section to be matched by multiple patterns, previously
duplicated sections could occupy more space in the output and had erroneous zero bytes.
The patch is in preparation for support for
`*(SORT_BY_INIT_PRIORITY(.init_array.* .ctors.*)) *(.init_array .ctors)`,
which will allow LLD to mix .ctors*/.init_array* like GNU ld (gold's --ctors-in-init-array)

This is a follow-up for D70378 (Cover usage of LLD as a library).
While debugging an intermittent failure on a bot, I recalled this scenario which
causes the issue:
1.When executing lld/test/ELF/invalid/symtab-sh-info.s L45, we reach
lld:🧝:Obj-File::ObjFile() which goes straight into its base ELFFileBase(),
then ELFFileBase::init().
2.At that point fatal() is thrown in lld/ELF/InputFiles.cpp L381, leaving a
half-initialized ObjFile instance.
3.We then end up in lld::exitLld() and since we are running with LLD_IN_TEST, we
hapily restore the control flow to CrashRecoveryContext::RunSafely() then back
in lld::safeLldMain().
4.Before this patch, we called errorHandler().reset() just after, and this
attempted to reset the associated SpecificAlloc<ObjFile<ELF64LE>>. That tried
to free the half-initialized ObjFile instance, and more precisely its
ObjFile::dwarf member.
Sometimes that worked, sometimes it failed and was catched by the
CrashRecoveryContext. This scenario was the reason we called
errorHandler().reset() through a CrashRecoveryContext.
But in some rare cases, the above repro somehow corrupted the heap, creating a
stack overflow. When the CrashRecoveryContext's filter (that is,
__except (ExceptionFilter(GetExceptionInformation()))) tried to handle the
exception, it crashed again since the stack was exhausted -- and that took the
whole application down. That is the issue seen on the bot. Locally it happens
about 1 times out of 15.
Now this situation can happen anywhere in LLD. Since catching stack overflows is
not a reliable scenario ATM when using CrashRecoveryContext, we're now
preventing further re-entrance when such failures occur, by signaling
lld::SafeReturn::canRunAgain=false. When running with LLD_IN_TEST=2 (or above),
only one iteration will be executed, instead of two.

However, as of https://reviews.llvm.org/D79530 we now allow

For this to be useful we also want to all TLS usage in such

we simply include the TLS data as a regular active segment
and create an immutable `__tls_base` global that point to the
start of this segment.

The UUID is computed based on an MD5 hash of the binary's contents. In order to
hash the contents, we must first write them, but LC_UUID itself must be part of
the written contents in order for all the offsets to be calculated correctly.
We resolve this circular paradox by first writing an LC_UUID with an all-zero

stub dylibs, but those lack LC_ID_DYLIB load commands and are considered
invalid by most tooling. Newer versions of `lipo` aren't able to create
stub dylibs at all. However, recent SDKs in XCode still come with valid
