llvm-gsymutil was maintaining an address ranges collection behind a mutex and having the multi-threaded code access this and hold the mutex was causing slowdown when converting DWARF to GSYM. This patch does the following:
- removes the "Ranges" variable from the GsymCreator and any functions and places that used it
- clients don't try to detect if a function has been added for an address range, we now remove any inferior copies of information in the GsymCreator::finalize() routine as was done before, we just have more items to remove, though performance is greator due to less mutex thread locking
- after I started adding all of the inferior funtion info objects the previous patch that tried to remove infrior debug info had bugs in it, so I replace the removeIfBinary() function in GsymCreator with a more efficient and easier to debug way to do things which copies items from the GsymCreator::Funcs into a new vector of FunctionInfo objects and then replaces GsymCreator::Funcs at the end.
- Sorting of FunctionInfo objects has been modified to also compare InlineInfo objects. We found cases where LTO was ruining inline function address ranges and we ended up with a variety of FunctionInfo objects for the same range that had varying amounts of valid debug info. This patch now ensure that two function info objects with different inline info for the same function address range, the best one will be picked to ensure the greatest fidelity.
- If we detect that a DW_TAG_subprogram has inline functions and after parsing it, we don't end up with any valid inline information, we set the optional to std::nullopt to avoid emitting empty inline information and wasting space.
My tests show a 200% perf increase on M1 macs and a 100% performance increase on linux machines for the same complex large DWARF input binary.

This patch mechanically replaces None with std::nullopt where the
compiler would warn if None were deprecated. The intent is to reduce
the amount of manual work required in migrating from Optional to
std::optional.
This is part of an effort to migrate from llvm::Optional to
std::optional:

llvm-gsymutil has an implementation of AddressRange and AddressRanges
classes. That implementation might be reused in other parts of llvm.
This patch moves AddressRange and AddressRanges classes into llvm/ADT.

Summary:
The Offset provides the offset within the function in a SourceLocation struct. This allows us to show the byte offset within a function. We also track offsets within inline functions as well. Updated the lookup tests to verify the offset for functions and inline functions.

Summary:
The DWARF transformer is added as a class so it can be unit tested fully.
The DWARF is converted to GSYM format and handles many special cases for functions:
- omit functions in compile units with 4 byte addresses whose address is UINT32_MAX (dead stripped)
- omit functions in compile units with 8 byte addresses whose address is UINT64_MAX (dead stripped)
- omit any functions whose high PC is <= low PC (dead stripped)
- StringTable builder doesn't copy strings, so we need to make backing copies of strings but only when needed. Many strings come from sections in object files and won't need to have backing copies, but some do.
- When a function doesn't have a mangled name, store the fully qualified name by creating a string by traversing the parent decl context DIEs and then. If we don't do this, we end up having cases where some function might appear in the GSYM as "erase" instead of "std::vector<int>::erase".
- omit any functions whose address isn't in the optional TextRanges member variable of DwarfTransformer. This allows object file to register address ranges that are known valid code ranges and can help omit functions that should have been dead stripped, but just had their low PC values set to zero. In this case we have many functions that all appear at address zero and can omit these functions by making sure they fall into good address ranges on the object file. Many compilers do this when the DWARF has a DW_AT_low_pc with a DW_FORM_addr, and a DW_AT_high_pc with a DW_FORM_data4 as the offset from the low PC. In this case the linker can't write the same address to both the high and low PC since there is only a relocation for the DW_AT_low_pc, so many linkers tend to just zero it out.

Summary:
Lookup functions are designed to not fully decode a FunctionInfo, LineTable or InlineInfo, they decode only what is needed into a LookupResult object. This allows lookups to avoid costly memory allocations and avoid parsing large amounts of information one a suitable match is found.
LookupResult objects contain the address that was looked up, the concrete function address range, the name of the concrete function, and a list of source locations. One for each inline function, and one for the concrete function. This allows one address to turn into multiple frames and improves the signal you get when symbolicating addresses in GSYM files.

This patch adds the ability to encode and decode InlineInfo objects and adds test coverage. Error handling is introduced in the encoding and decoding which will be used from here on out for remaining patches.

The full GSYM patch started with: https://reviews.llvm.org/D53379
In that patch we wanted to split up getting GSYM into the LLVM code base so we are not committing too much code at once.
This is a first in a series of patches where I only add the foundation classes along with complete unit tests. They provide the foundation for encoding and decoding a GSYM file.
File entries are defined in llvm::gsym::FileEntry. This class splits the file up into a directory and filename represented by uniqued string table offsets. This allows all files that are referred to in a GSYM file to be encoded as 1 based indexes into a global file table in the GSYM file.
Function information in stored in llvm::gsym::FunctionInfo. This object represents a contiguous address range that has a name and range with an optional line table and inline call stack information.
Line table entries are defined in llvm::gsym::LineEntry. They store only address, file and line information to keep the line tables simple and allows the information to be efficiently encoded in a subsequent patch.
Inline information is defined in llvm::gsym::InlineInfo. These structs store the name of the inline function, along with one or more address ranges, and the file and line that called this function. They also contain any child inline information.
There are also utility classes for address ranges in llvm::gsym::AddressRange, and string table support in llvm::gsym::StringTable which are simple classes.
The unit tests test all the APIs on these simple classes so they will be ready for the next patches where we will create GSYM files and parse GSYM files.
