Remove support for obfuscated bitcode in dsymutil and the DWARF linker.
We no longer support bitcode submissions and the obfuscation support has
been removed from the rest of the compiler.

The base class llvm::ThreadPoolInterface will be renamed
llvm::ThreadPool in a subsequent commit.
This is a breaking change: clients who use to create a ThreadPool must
now create a DefaultThreadPool instead.
DWARFLinkerImpl::DWARFLinkerImpl initializes
DebugStrStrings/DebugLineStrStrings/CommonSections using GlobalData
but GlobalData is initialized after the three members.
Move GlobalData before.
Fix#81110
This implements the ideas discussed in [1].
To summarize, this commit changes AsmPrinter so that it outputs
DW_IDX_parent information for debug_name entries. It will enable
debuggers to speed up queries for fully qualified types (based on a
DWARFDeclContext) significantly, as debuggers will no longer need to
parse the entire CU in order to inspect the parent chain of a DIE.
Instead, a debugger can simply take the parent DIE offset from the
accelerator table and peek at its name in the debug_info/debug_str
sections.
The implementation uses two types of DW_FORM for the DW_IDX_parent
attribute:
1. DW_FORM_ref4, which points to the accelerator table entry for the
parent.
2. DW_FORM_flag_present, when the entry has a parent that is not in the
table (that is, the parent doesn't have a name, or isn't allowed to be
in the table as per the DWARF spec). This is space-efficient, since it
takes 0 bytes.
The implementation works by:
1. Changing how abbreviations are encoded (so that they encode which
form, if
any, was used to encode IDX_Parent)
2. Creating an MCLabel per accelerator table entry, so that they may be
referred by IDX_parent references.
When all patches related to this are merged, we are able to show that
evaluating an expression such as:
```
lldb --batch -o 'b CodeGenFunction::GenerateCode' -o run -o 'expr Fn' -- \
clang++ -c -g test.cpp -o /dev/null
```
is far faster: from ~5000 ms to ~1500ms.
Building llvm-project + clang with and without this patch, and looking
at its impact on object file size:
```
ls -la $(find build_stage2_Debug_idx_parent_assert_dwarf5 -name \*.cpp.o) | awk '{s+=$5} END {printf "%\047d\n", s}'
11,507,327,592
-la $(find build_stage2_Debug_no_idx_parent_assert_dwarf5 -name \*.cpp.o) | awk '{s+=$5} END {printf "%\047d\n", s}'
11,436,446,616
```
That is, an increase of 0.62% in total object file size.
Looking only at debug_names:
```
$stage1_build/bin/llvm-objdump --section-headers $(find build_stage2_Debug_idx_parent_assert_dwarf5 -name \*.cpp.o) | grep __debug_names | awk '{s+="0x"$3} END {printf "%\047d\n", s}'
440,772,348
$stage1_build/bin/llvm-objdump --section-headers $(find build_stage2_Debug_no_idx_parent_assert_dwarf5 -name \*.cpp.o) | grep __debug_names | awk '{s+="0x"$3} END {printf "%\047d\n", s}'
369,867,920
```
That is an increase of 19%.
DWARF Linkers need to be changed in order to support this. This commit
already brings support to "base" linker, but it does not attempt to
modify the parallel linker. Accelerator entries refer to the
corresponding DIE offset, and this patch also requires the parent DIE
offset -- it's not clear how the parallel linker can access this. It may
be obvious to someone familiar with it, but it would be nice to get help
from its authors.

This patch is extracted from #74725.
The DwarfStreamer interface looks overcomplicated and has unnecessary
dependencies. This patch avoids creation of DwarfStreamer by DWARFLinker and
simplifies interface.
It was noted that new DWARFLinker libraries do not follow naming
agreement -
https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/75925#issuecomment-1883301659
This patch rename libraries to match with the agreement.
Rename LLVMDWARFLinkerBase library into the LLVMDWARFLinker. Rename
LLVMDWARFLinker library into the LLVMDWARFLinkerClassic. Correct include
path according to the new directory structure.
This patch creates DWARFLinkerBase library, places DWARFLinker code into
DWARFLinker\Classic, places DWARFLinkerParallel into DWARFLinker\Parallel.
updates BOLT to use new library. This patch is NFC.
