Add the necessary sanitizer interface decls required when the memprof
runtime is built in dynamic mode. This was a latent issue since we didn't
add tests for the histogram feature in compiler-rt. These tests are run
with `ninja check-memprof-dynamic`. I discovered this after the CI
failures for #147854.
Add the `__memprof_default_options_str` variable, initialized via the
`-memprof-runtime-default-options` LLVM flag, to hold the default options string
for memprof. This allows us to set these options during compile time in
the clang invocation.
Also update the docs to describe the various ways to set these options.
Add __memprof_profile_reset() interface which can be used to facilitate
dumping multiple rounds of profiles from a single binary run. This
closes the current file descriptor and resets the internal file
descriptor to invalid (-1), which ensures the underlying writer reopens
the recorded profile filename. This can be used once the client is done
moving or copying a dumped profile, to prepare for reinvoking profile
dumping.
This will allow the output directory to be specified by a build time
option, similar to the directory specified for regular PGO profiles via
-fprofile-generate=. The memory profiling instrumentation pass will
set up the variable. This is the same mechanism used by the PGO
instrumentation and runtime.
Depends on D87120 and D89629.

Follow on companion to the clang/llvm instrumentation support in D85948
and committed earlier.
This patch adds the compiler-rt runtime support for the memory
profiling.
Note that much of this support was cloned from asan (and then greatly
simplified and renamed). For example the interactions with the
sanitizer_common allocators, error handling, interception, etc.
The bulk of the memory profiling specific code can be found in the
MemInfoBlock, MemInfoBlockCache, and related classes defined and used
in memprof_allocator.cpp.
For now, the memory profile is dumped to text (stderr by default, but
honors the sanitizer_common log_path flag). It is dumped in either a
default verbose format, or an optional terse format.
This patch also adds a set of tests for the core functionality.
