This patch moves the CommonArgs utilities into a location visible by the
Frontend Drivers, so that the Frontend Drivers may share option parsing
code with the Compiler Driver. This is useful when the Frontend Drivers
would like to verify that their incoming options are well-formed and
also not reinvent the option parsing wheel.
We already see code in the Clang/Flang Drivers that is parsing and
verifying its incoming options. E.g. OPT_ffp_contract. This option is
parsed in the Compiler Driver, Clang Driver, and Flang Driver, all with
slightly different parsing code. It would be nice if the Frontend
Drivers were not required to duplicate this Compiler Driver code. That
way there is no/low maintenance burden on keeping all these parsing
functions in sync.
Along those lines, the Frontend Drivers will now have a useful mechanism
to verify their incoming options are well-formed. Currently, the
Frontend Drivers trust that the Compiler Driver is not passing back junk
in some cases. The Language Drivers may even accept junk with no error
at all. E.g.:
`clang -cc1 -mprefer-vector-width=junk test.c'
With this patch, we'll now be able to tighten up incomming options to
the Frontend drivers in a lightweight way.

This new representation means that a valid command line option may
potentially be used directly as a multilib flag without any translation.
To indicate that a flag is required not to be present, its first
character is replaced with '!', which is intended for consistency with
the logical not operator in many programming languages.

Decouple the interface of the MultilibBuilder flag method from how flags
are stored internally. Likewise change the addMultilibFlag function.
Currently a multilib flag like "-fexceptions" means a multilib is
*incompatible* with the -fexceptions command line option, which is
counter-intuitive. This change is a step towards changing this scheme.

The new algorithm is:
1. Find all multilibs with flags that are a subset of the requested
flags.
2. If more than one multilib matches, choose the last.
In addition a new selection mechanism is permitted via an overload of
MultilibSet::select() for which multiple multilibs are returned.
This allows layering multilibs on top of each other.
Since multilibs are now ordered within a list, they no longer need a
Priority field.
The new algorithm is different to the old algorithm, but in practise
the old algorithm was always used in such a way that the effect is the
same.
The old algorithm was to find the set intersection of the requested
flags (with the first character of each removed) with each multilib's
flags (ditto), and for that intersection check whether the first
character matched. However, ignoring the first characters, the
requested flags were always a superset of all the multilibs flags.
Therefore the new algorithm can be used as a drop-in replacement.
The exception is Fuchsia, which needs adjusting slightly to set both
fexceptions and fno-exceptions flags.

The functionality in MultilibSet for creating it is tied to its current
implementation. Putting that code in a separate class is an enabler for
changing the MultilibSet implementation.
