1. Fix build breakage for non-ELF platforms, by defining the missing
functions {`__llvm_profile_begin_vtables`, `__llvm_profile_end_vtables`,
`__llvm_profile_begin_vtabnames `, `__llvm_profile_end_vtabnames`}
everywhere.
* Tested on mac laptop (for darwins) and Windows. Specifically,
functions in `InstrProfilingPlatformWindows.c` returns `NULL` to make it
more explicit that type prof isn't supported; see comments for the
reason.
* For the rest (AIX, other), mostly follow existing examples (like this
[one](f95b2f1acf))
2. Rename `__llvm_prf_vtabnames` -> `__llvm_prf_vns` for shorter section
name, and make returned pointers

**Original Description**
* Raw profile format
- Header: records the byte size of compressed vtable names, and the
number of profiled vtable entries (call it `VTableProfData`). Header
also records padded bytes of each section.
- Payload: adds a section for compressed vtable names, and a section to
store `VTableProfData`. Both sections are padded so the size is a
multiple of 8.
* Indexed profile format
- Header: records the byte offset of compressed vtable names.
- Payload: adds a section to store compressed vtable names. This section
is used by `llvm-profdata` to show the list of vtables profiled for an
instrumented site.
[The originally reviewed
patch](https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/66825) will have
profile reader/write change and llvm-profdata change.
- To ensure this PR has all the necessary profile format change along
with profile version bump, created a copy of the originally reviewed
patch in https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/80761. The copy
doesn't have profile format change, but it has the set of tests which
covers type profile generation, profile read and profile merge. Tests
pass there.

## Motivation
Since we don't need the metadata sections at runtime, we can somehow
offload them from memory at runtime. Initially, I explored [debug info
correlation](https://discourse.llvm.org/t/instrprofiling-lightweight-instrumentation/59113),
which is used for PGO with value profiling disabled. However, it
currently only works with DWARF and it's be hard to add such artificial
debug info for every function in to CodeView which is used on Windows.
So, offloading profile metadata sections at runtime seems to be a
platform independent option.
## Design
The idea is to use new section names for profile name and data sections
and mark them as metadata sections. Under this mode, the new sections
are non-SHF_ALLOC in ELF. So, they are not loaded into memory at runtime
and can be stripped away as a post-linking step. After the process
exits, the generated raw profiles will contains only headers + counters.
llvm-profdata can be used correlate raw profiles with the unstripped
binary to generate indexed profile.
## Data
For chromium base_unittests with code coverage on linux, the binary size
overhead due to instrumentation reduced from 64M to 38.8M (39.4%) and
the raw profile files size reduce from 128M to 68M (46.9%)

A few things to note:
1. llvm-profdata doesn't support filter raw profiles by binary id yet,
so when a raw profile doesn't belongs to the binary being digested by
llvm-profdata, merging will fail. Once this is implemented,
llvm-profdata should be able to only merge raw profiles with the same
binary id as the binary and discard the rest (with mismatched/missing
binary id). The workflow I have in mind is to have scripts invoke
llvm-profdata to get all binary ids for all raw profiles, and
selectively choose the raw pnrofiles with matching binary id and the
binary to llvm-profdata for merging.
2. Note: In COFF, currently they are still loaded into memory but not
used. I didn't do it in this patch because I noticed that `.lcovmap` and
`.lcovfunc` are loaded into memory. A separate patch will address it.
3. This should works with PGO when value profiling is disabled as debug
info correlation currently doing, though I haven't tested this yet.

As described in [0], this extends IRPGO to support //Temporal Profiling//.
When `-pgo-temporal-instrumentation` is used we add the `llvm.instrprof.timestamp()` intrinsic to the entry of functions which in turn gets lowered to a call to the compiler-rt function `INSTR_PROF_PROFILE_SET_TIMESTAMP()`. A new field in the `llvm_prf_cnts` section stores each function's timestamp. Then in `llvm-profdata merge` we convert these function timestamps into a //trace// and add it to the indexed profile.
Since these traces could significantly increase the profile size, we've added `-max-temporal-profile-trace-length` and `-temporal-profile-trace-reservoir-size` to limit the length of a trace and the number of traces in a profile, respectively.
In a future diff we plan to use these traces to construct an optimized function order to reduce the number of page faults during startup.
Special thanks to Julian Mestre for helping with reservoir sampling.

This patch adds support for optional memory profile information to be
included with and indexed profile. The indexed profile header adds a new
field which points to the offset of the memory profile section (if
present) in the indexed profile. For users who do not utilize this
feature the only overhead is a 64-bit offset in the header.
The memory profile section contains (1) profile metadata describing the
information recorded for each entry (2) an on-disk hashtable containing
the profile records indexed via llvm::md5(function_name). We chose to
introduce a separate hash table instead of the existing one since the
indexing for the instrumented fdo hash table is based on a CFG hash
which itself is perturbed by memprof instrumentation.

Use the llvm flag `-pgo-function-entry-coverage` to create single byte "counters" to track functions coverage. This mode has significantly less size overhead in both code and data because
* We mark a function as "covered" with a store instead of an increment which generally requires fewer assembly instructions
* We use a single byte per function rather than 8 bytes per block
The trade off of course is that this mode only tells you if a function has been covered. This is useful, for example, to detect dead code.
When combined with debug info correlation [0] we are able to create an instrumented Clang binary that is only 150M (the vanilla Clang binary is 143M). That is an overhead of 7M (4.9%) compared to the default instrumentation (without value profiling) which has an overhead of 31M (21.7%).

Existing code tended to assume that counters had type `uint64_t` and
computed size from the number of counters. Fix this code to directly
compute the counters size in number of bytes where possible. When the
number of counters is needed, use `__llvm_profile_counter_entry_size()`
or `getCounterTypeSize()`. In a later diff these functions will depend
on the profile mode.
Change the meaning of `DataSize` and `CountersSize` to make them more clear.
* `DataSize` (`CountersSize`) - the size of the data (counter) section in bytes.
* `NumData` (`NumCounters`) - the number of data (counter) entries.

Change `CountersPtr` in `__profd_` to a label difference, which is a link-time
constant. On ELF, when linking a shared object, this requires that `__profc_` is
either private or linkonce/linkonce_odr hidden. On COFF, we need D104564 so that
`.quad a-b` (64-bit label difference) can lower to a 32-bit PC-relative relocation.
```
# ELF: R_X86_64_PC64 (PC-relative)
.quad .L__profc_foo-.L__profd_foo
# Mach-O: a pair of 8-byte X86_64_RELOC_UNSIGNED and X86_64_RELOC_SUBTRACTOR
.quad l___profc_foo-l___profd_foo
# COFF: we actually use IMAGE_REL_AMD64_REL32/IMAGE_REL_ARM64_REL32 so
# the high 32-bit value is zero even if .L__profc_foo < .L__profd_foo
# As compensation, we truncate CountersDelta in the header so that
# __llvm_profile_merge_from_buffer and llvm-profdata reader keep working.
.quad .L__profc_foo-.L__profd_foo
```
(Note: link.exe sorts `.lprfc` before `.lprfd` even if the object writer
has `.lprfd` before `.lprfc`, so we cannot work around by reordering
`.lprfc` and `.lprfd`.)

Revert "[profile] Change linkage type of a compiler-rt func"

We need the compiler generated variable to override the weak symbol of
the same name inside the profile runtime, but using LinkOnceODRLinkage
results in weak symbol being emitted in which case the symbol selected
by the linker is going to depend on the order of inputs which can be
fragile.
This change replaces the use of weak definition inside the runtime with
a weak alias. We place the compiler generated symbol inside a COMDAT
group so dead definition can be garbage collected by the linker.
We also disable the use of runtime counter relocation on Darwin since
Mach-O doesn't support weak external references, but Darwin already uses
a different continous mode that relies on overmapping so runtime counter
relocation isn't needed there.

1. PGOMemOPSizeOpt grabs only the first, up to five (by default) entries from
the value profile metadata and preserves the remaining entries for the fallback
memop call site. If there are more than five entries, the rest of the entries
would get dropped. This is fine for PGOMemOPSizeOpt itself as it only promotes
up to 3 (by default) values, but potentially not for other downstream passes
that may use the value profile metadata.
2. PGOMemOPSizeOpt originally assumed that only values 0 through 8 are kept
track of. When the range buckets were introduced, it was changed to skip the
range buckets, but since it does not grab all entries (only five), if some range
buckets exist in the first five entries, it could potentially cause fewer
promotion opportunities (eg. if 4 out of 5 were range buckets, it may be able to
promote up to one non-range bucket, as opposed to 3.) Also, combined with 1, it
means that wrong entries may be preserved, as it didn't correctly keep track of
which were entries were skipped.
To fix this, PGOMemOPSizeOpt now grabs all the entries (up to the maximum number
of value profile buckets), keeps track of which entries were skipped, and
preserves all the remaining entries.

We currently always store absolute filenames in coverage mapping. This
is problematic for several reasons. It poses a problem for distributed
compilation as source location might vary across machines. We are also
duplicating the path prefix potentially wasting space.
This change modifies how we store filenames in coverage mapping. Rather
than absolute paths, it stores the compilation directory and file paths
as given to the compiler, either relative or absolute. Later when
reading the coverage mapping information, we recombine relative paths
with the working directory. This approach is similar to handling
ofDW_AT_comp_dir in DWARF.
Finally, we also provide a new option, -fprofile-compilation-dir akin
to -fdebug-compilation-dir which can be used to manually override the
compilation directory which is useful in distributed compilation cases.
