BlockFrequencyInfo calculates block frequencies as Scaled64 numbers but as a last step converts them to unsigned 64bit integers (`BlockFrequency`). This improves the factors picked for this conversion so that:
* Avoid big numbers close to UINT64_MAX to avoid users overflowing/saturating when adding multiply frequencies together or when multiplying with integers. This leaves the topmost 10 bits unused to allow for some room.
* Spread the difference between hottest/coldest block as much as possible to increase precision.
* If the hot/cold spread cannot be represented loose precision at the lower end, but keep the frequencies at the upper end for hot blocks differentiable.
This was reverted because it was breaking when targeting Darwin which
tried to export these symbols which are now hidden. It should be safe
to just stop attempting to export these symbols in the clang driver,
though Apple folks will need to change their TAPI allow list described
in the commit where these symbols were originally exported
f538018562
Then reverted again because it broke tests on MacOS, they should be
fixed now.

Looks like this is still breaking the test

(see comment on https://reviews.llvm.org/D135340).

This breaks on Darwin which tries to export these symbols
ebb258d3b0/clang/lib/Driver/ToolChains/Darwin.cpp (L1363)
I'll try to reland which that removed and approval from
Apple folks.
This enabled opaque pointers by default in LLVM. The effect of this
is twofold:
* If IR that contains *neither* explicit ptr nor %T* types is passed
to tools, we will now use opaque pointer mode, unless
-opaque-pointers=0 has been explicitly passed.
* Users of LLVM as a library will now default to opaque pointers.
It is possible to opt-out by calling setOpaquePointers(false) on
LLVMContext.
A cmake option to toggle this default will not be provided. Frontends
or other tools that want to (temporarily) keep using typed pointers
should disable opaque pointers via LLVMContext.

CallInst::updateProfWeight() creates branch_weights with i64 instead of i32.
To be more consistent everywhere and remove lots of casts from uint64_t
to uint32_t, use i64 for branch_weights.

This is to avoid the need to update a bunch of test files when the PGO
instrumentation function hashing changes.
Split off of D84782.
Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D84865
This patch includes the supporting code that enables always
instrumenting the function entry block by default.
This patch will NOT the default behavior.
It adds a variant bit in the profile version, adds new directives in
text profile format, and changes llvm-profdata tool accordingly.
This patch is a split of D83024 (https://reviews.llvm.org/D83024)
Many test changes from D83024 are also included.

This patch uses one bit in profile version to differentiate Clang
instrumentation and IR level instrumentation profiles.
PGOInstrumenation generates a COMDAT variable __llvm_profile_raw_version so
that the compiler runtime can set the right profile kind.
For Maco-O platform, we generate the variable as linkonce_odr linkage as
COMDAT is not supported.
PGOInstrumenation now checks this bit to make sure it's an IR level
instrumentation profile.
The patch was submitted as r260164 but reverted due to a Darwin test breakage.

Profile symbols have long prefixes which waste space and creating pressure for linker.
This patch shortens the prefixes to minimal length without losing verbosity.

This new patch fixes a few bugs that exposed in last submit. It also improves
the test cases.
--Original Commit Message--
This patch implements a minimum spanning tree (MST) based instrumentation for
PGO. The use of MST guarantees minimum number of CFG edges getting
instrumented. An addition optimization is to instrument the less executed
edges to further reduce the instrumentation overhead. The patch contains both the
instrumentation and the use of the profile to set the branch weights.
