Use deduction guides instead of helper functions.
The only non-automatic changes have been:
1. ArrayRef(some_uint8_pointer, 0) needs to be changed into ArrayRef(some_uint8_pointer, (size_t)0) to avoid an ambiguous call with ArrayRef((uint8_t*), (uint8_t*))
2. CVSymbol sym(makeArrayRef(symStorage)); needed to be rewritten as CVSymbol sym{ArrayRef(symStorage)}; otherwise the compiler is confused and thinks we have a (bad) function prototype. There was a few similar situation across the codebase.
3. ADL doesn't seem to work the same for deduction-guides and functions, so at some point the llvm namespace must be explicitly stated.
4. The "reference mode" of makeArrayRef(ArrayRef<T> &) that acts as no-op is not supported (a constructor cannot achieve that).
Per reviewers' comment, some useless makeArrayRef have been removed in the process.
This is a follow-up to https://reviews.llvm.org/D140896 that introduced
the deduction guides.

Once an LLVMContext has been told it needs to track pointer types, it can no
longer be used to parse opaque modules. However, we are likely (at least for a
while) to have old LTO .o files in the SDK that need to interoperate with
just-generated ones, so deciding opaqueness based on the first module read
causes linker failures.
This makes the llvm-c LTO interface parse any object it sees in opaque mode,
even if type data is present, which guarantees compatibility.
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:

According to the documentation, lto_module_create_in_codegen_context

On AIX, the linker needs to check whether a given lto_module_t contains

In llvm IR, constructor (destructor) functions are added to a special

MCTargetOptionsCommandFlags.inc and CommandFlags.inc are headers which contain
cl::opt with static storage.
These headers are meant to be incuded by tools to make it easier to parametrize
codegen/mc.
However, these headers are also included in at least two libraries: lldCommon
and handle-llvm. As a result, when creating DYLIB, clang-cpp holds a reference
to the options, and lldCommon holds another reference. Linking the two in a
single executable, as zig does[0], results in a double registration.
This patch explores an other approach: the .inc files are moved to regular
files, and the registration happens on-demand through static declaration of
options in the constructor of a static object.

Dependent libraries support for the legacy api was committed in a
broken state (see: https://reviews.llvm.org/D60274). This was missed
due to the painful nature of having to integrate the changes into a
linker in order to test. This change implements support for dependent
libraries in the legacy LTO api:
- I have removed the current api function, which returns a single
string, and added functions to access each dependent library
specifier individually.
- To reduce the testing pain, I have made the api functions as thin as
possible to maximize coverage from llvm-lto.
- When doing ThinLTO the system linker will load the modules lazily
when scanning the input files. Unfortunately, when modules are
lazily loaded there is no access to module level named metadata. To
fix this I have added api functions that allow querying the IRSymtab
for the dependent libraries. I hope to expand the api in the future
so that, eventually, all the information needed by a client linker
during scan can be retrieved from the IRSymtab.

This patch implements a limited form of autolinking primarily designed to allow
either the --dependent-library compiler option, or "comment lib" pragmas (
https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/cpp/preprocessor/comment-c-cpp?view=vs-2017) in
C/C++ e.g. #pragma comment(lib, "foo"), to cause an ELF linker to automatically
add the specified library to the link when processing the input file generated
by the compiler.
Currently this extension is unique to LLVM and LLD. However, care has been taken
to design this feature so that it could be supported by other ELF linkers.
The design goals were to provide:
- A simple linking model for developers to reason about.
- The ability to to override autolinking from the linker command line.
- Source code compatibility, where possible, with "comment lib" pragmas in other
environments (MSVC in particular).
Dependent library support is implemented differently for ELF platforms than on
the other platforms. Primarily this difference is that on ELF we pass the
dependent library specifiers directly to the linker without manipulating them.
This is in contrast to other platforms where they are mapped to a specific
linker option by the compiler. This difference is a result of the greater
variety of ELF linkers and the fact that ELF linkers tend to handle libraries in
a more complicated fashion than on other platforms. This forces us to defer
handling the specifiers to the linker.
In order to achieve a level of source code compatibility with other platforms
we have restricted this feature to work with libraries that meet the following
"reasonable" requirements:
1. There are no competing defined symbols in a given set of libraries, or
if they exist, the program owner doesn't care which is linked to their
program.
2. There may be circular dependencies between libraries.
The binary representation is a mergeable string section (SHF_MERGE,
SHF_STRINGS), called .deplibs, with custom type SHT_LLVM_DEPENDENT_LIBRARIES
(0x6fff4c04). The compiler forms this section by concatenating the arguments of
the "comment lib" pragmas and --dependent-library options in the order they are
encountered. Partial (-r, -Ur) links are handled by concatenating .deplibs
sections with the normal mergeable string section rules. As an example, #pragma
comment(lib, "foo") would result in:
.section ".deplibs","MS",@llvm_dependent_libraries,1
.asciz "foo"
For LTO, equivalent information to the contents of a the .deplibs section can be
retrieved by the LLD for bitcode input files.
LLD processes the dependent library specifiers in the following way:
1. Dependent libraries which are found from the specifiers in .deplibs sections
of relocatable object files are added when the linker decides to include that
file (which could itself be in a library) in the link. Dependent libraries
behave as if they were appended to the command line after all other options. As
a consequence the set of dependent libraries are searched last to resolve
symbols.
2. It is an error if a file cannot be found for a given specifier.
3. Any command line options in effect at the end of the command line parsing apply
to the dependent libraries, e.g. --whole-archive.
4. The linker tries to add a library or relocatable object file from each of the
strings in a .deplibs section by; first, handling the string as if it was
specified on the command line; second, by looking for the string in each of the
library search paths in turn; third, by looking for a lib<string>.a or
lib<string>.so (depending on the current mode of the linker) in each of the
library search paths.
5. A new command line option --no-dependent-libraries tells LLD to ignore the
dependent libraries.
Rationale for the above points:
1. Adding the dependent libraries last makes the process simple to understand
from a developers perspective. All linkers are able to implement this scheme.
2. Error-ing for libraries that are not found seems like better behavior than
failing the link during symbol resolution.
3. It seems useful for the user to be able to apply command line options which
will affect all of the dependent libraries. There is a potential problem of
surprise for developers, who might not realize that these options would apply
to these "invisible" input files; however, despite the potential for surprise,
this is easy for developers to reason about and gives developers the control
that they may require.
4. This algorithm takes into account all of the different ways that ELF linkers
find input files. The different search methods are tried by the linker in most
obvious to least obvious order.
5. I considered adding finer grained control over which dependent libraries were
ignored (e.g. MSVC has /nodefaultlib:<library>); however, I concluded that this
is not necessary: if finer control is required developers can fall back to using
the command line directly.

The maximum cache size in terms of bytes is a 64-bit number. However,
the methods to set it only took unsigned previously, which meant that
the maximum cache size could not be specified above 4GB. That's quite
small compared to the output of some projects, so it makes sense to
provide the ability to set larger values in that field.
We also needed a C-interface function that provides a greater range

takes an unsigned, so this change also adds
