The entries inside a "target data end" is processed in three steps:
1. Query internal data maps for the entries and dispatch any necessary
device-side operations (i.e., data retrieval);
2. Synchronize the such operations;
3. Update the host-side pointers and remove any entry which reference
counter reached zero.
Such steps may be executed by multiple threads which may even operate on
the same entries. The current implementation (D121058) tries to
synchronize these threads by tracking the "owner" for the deletion of
each entry using their thread ID. Unfortunately it may failed to do so
because of the following reasons:
1. The owner is always assigned at the first step only if the
reference count is 0 when the map is queried. This does not work
when such owner thread is faster than a previous one that is also
processing the same entry on another "target data end", leading to
user-after-free problems.
2. The entry is only added for post-processing (step 3) if its
reference count was 0 at query time (step 1). This does not allow
for threads to exchange responsibility for the deletion, leading
again to user-after-free problems.
3. An entry may appear multiple times in the arguments array of a
"target data end", which may lead to deleting the entry
prematurely, leading, again, to user-after-free problems.
This patch addresses these problems by tracking all the threads that are
using an entry at "target data end" region through a counter, ensuring
only the last one deletes it when needed. It also ensures that all
entries that are successfully found inside the data maps in step 1 are
also processed in step 3, regardless if their reference count was zeroed
or not at query time. This ensures the deletion ownership may be passed
to any thread that is using such entry.

Recently OpenMP has transitioned to using the "new" driver which
primarily merges the device and host linking phases into a single
wrapper that handles both at the same time. This replaced a few tools
that were only used for OpenMP offloading, such as the
`clang-offload-wrapper` and `clang-nvlink-wrapper`. The new driver
carries some marked benefits compared to the old driver that is now
being deprecated. Things like device-side LTO, static library
support, and more compatible tooling. As such, we should be able to
completely deprecate the old driver, at least for OpenMP. The old driver
support will still exist for CUDA and HIP, although both of these can
currently be compiled on Linux with `--offload-new-driver` to use the new
method.
Note that this does not deprecate the `clang-offload-bundler`, although
it is unused by OpenMP now, it is still used by the HIP toolchain both
as their device binary format and object format.
When I proposed deprecating this code I heard some vendors voice
concernes about needing to update their code in their fork. They should
be able to just revert this commit if it lands.

This test hasn't been fixed and causes spurious failures when testing.
This patch sets it as unsupported until we have a reliable fix.

We are planning on making LTO the default compilation mode for
offloading. In order to make sure it works we should run these tests on
the test suite. AMDGPU already uses the LTO compilation path for its
linking, but in LTO mode it also links the static library late.
Performing LTO requires the static library to be built, if we make the
change this will be a hard requirement and the old bitcode library will
go away. This means users will need to use either a two-step build or a
runtimes build for libomptarget.

Summary:
One test had an old "unsupported" string that used the old `newDriver`
string which was removed. This test should be updated to use the
`oldDriver` one instead.
If we decided to delete a mapping entry we did not act on it right away
but first issued and waited for memory copies. In the meantime some
other thread might reuse the entry. While there was some logic to avoid
colliding on the actual "deletion" part, there were two races happening:
1) The data transfer back of the thread deleting the entry and
the data transfer back of the thread taking over the entry raced.
2) The update to the shadow map happened regardless if the entry was
actually reused by another thread which left the shadow map in a
inconsistent state.
To fix both issues we will now update the shadow map and delete the
entry only if we are sure the thread is responsible for deletion, hence
no other thread took over the entry and reused it. We also wait for a
potential former data transfer from the device to finish before we issue
another one that would race with it.
