Summary:
Instead of adding a ".unlikely" or ".eh" suffix for machine basic blocks,
this change updates the behaviour to use an appropriate prefix
instead. This allows lld to group basic block sections together
when -z,keep-text-section-prefix is specified and matches the behaviour
observed in gcc.

in the same section.
This allows specifying BasicBlock clusters like the following example:
!foo
!!0 1 2
!!4
This places basic blocks 0, 1, and 2 in one section in this order, and
places basic block #4 in a single section of its own.
This is the second patch in a series of patches to enable basic block
sections support.
This patch adds support for:
* Creating direct jumps at the end of basic blocks that have fall
through instructions.
* New pass, bbsections-prepare, that analyzes placement of basic blocks
in sections.
* Actual placing of a basic block in a unique section with special
handling of exception handling blocks.
* Supports placing a subset of basic blocks in a unique section.
* Support for MIR serialization and deserialization with basic block
sections.
