This is phase 1 of multiple planned improvements on the sample profile loader. The major change is to use MD5 hash code ((instead of the function itself) as the key to look up the function offset table and the profiles, which significantly reduce the time it takes to construct the map.
The optimization is based on the fact that many practical sample profiles are using MD5 values for function names to reduce profile size, so we shouldn't need to convert the MD5 to a string and then to a SampleContext and use it as the map's key, because it's extremely slow.
Several changes to note:
(1) For non-CS SampleContext, if it is already MD5 string, the hash value will be its integral value, instead of hashing the MD5 again. In phase 2 this is going to be optimized further using a union to represent MD5 function (without converting it to string) and regular function names.
(2) The SampleProfileMap is a wrapper to *map<uint64_t, FunctionSamples>, while providing interface allowing using SampleContext as key, so that existing code still work. It will check for MD5 collision (unlikely but not too unlikely, since we only takes the lower 64 bits) and handle it to at least guarantee compilation correctness (conflicting old profile is dropped, instead of returning an old profile with inconsistent context). Other code should not try to use MD5 as key to access the map directly, because it will not be able to handle MD5 collision at all. (see exception at (5) )
(3) Any SampleProfileMap::emplace() followed by SampleContext assignment if newly inserted, should be replaced with SampleProfileMap::Create(), which does the same thing.
(4) Previously we ensure an invariant that in SampleProfileMap, the key is equal to the Context of the value, for profile map that is eventually being used for output (as in llvm-profdata/llvm-profgen). Since the key became MD5 hash, only the value keeps the context now, in several places where an intermediate SampleProfileMap is created, each new FunctionSample's context is set immediately after insertion, which is necessary to "remember" the context otherwise irretrievable.
(5) When reading a profile, we cache the MD5 values of all functions, because they are used at least twice (one to index into FuncOffsetTable, the other into SampleProfileMap, more if there are additional sections), in this case the SampleProfileMap is directly accessed with MD5 value so that we don't recalculate it each time (expensive)
Performance impact:
When reading a ~1GB extbinary profile (fixed length MD5, not compressed) with 10 million function names and 2.5 million top level functions (non CS functions, each function has varying nesting level from 0 to 20), this patch improves the function offset table loading time by 20%, and improves full profile read by 5%.

Cleanup profile reader classes to prepare for complex refactoring as propsed in D147740 (Use MD5 as key for profile map). Change is too complicated so I am cleaning up the reader implementation first with these goals.
- Reduce duplicated/similar logic
- Reduce virtual functions, changing them to non-virtual
- Reduce unnecessry checks, indirections, and dead writes.
This is patch 1/n. This patch refactors NameTable
Explaining several decisions here
1. useMD5() means whether names of the profiles (the ProfileMap) are represented as MD5. It is NOT whether the input profile format is MD5. This function is an interface for IPO passes to decide whether to match function names or function MD5. There are two motives here:
(a) Eventually we want to use MD5 to represent all function contexts because it is much faster to use it as a key for lookup tables (prototype implementation D147740), so in compilation mode we call setProfileUseMD5() to force use MD5. While in tools mode (llvm-profdata) we want to keep the function name info if it's in the input profile.
(b) We also propose to allow multiple name tables and profile sections in ExtBinary format, and it could consist of name tables with or without using MD5, in this case MD5 prevails and other name tables are converted to MD5.
2. MD5 handling logic is pushed up to BinaryReader base class, because this trades a non-devirtualized virtual function call with a predictable branch. ReadStringFromTable() accounts for >5% time when loading a full 1 GB profile, it should not be virtual.
