When using debug info for profile correlation, avoid adding duplicate
functions in the synthetic Data section.
Before this patch, n duplicate function entries in the Data section would
cause counter values to be a factor of n larger. I built instrumented
clang with and without debug info correlation and got these summaries.
```
# With Debug Info Correlate
$ llvm-profdata show default.profdata
Instrumentation level: IR entry_first = 0
Total functions: 182530
Maximum function count: 52034
Maximum internal block count: 5763
# Without
$ llvm-profdata show default.profdata
Instrumentation level: IR entry_first = 0
Total functions: 183212
Maximum function count: 52034
Maximum internal block count: 5766
```
The slight difference in counts seem to be mostly from FileSystem and
Map functions and the difference in the number of instrumented functions
seems to come from missing debug info like destructors without source.

For some reason, the user-defined implicit conversion from StringRef to
std::string is not invoked by std::map::emplace in libstdc++ 5.4.0, even
though it works fine on modern systems.
CSSPGO currently employs a flat profile format for context-sensitive profiles. Such a flat profile allows for precisely manipulating contexts that is either inlined or not inlined. This is a benefit over the nested profile format used by non-CS AutoFDO. A downside of this is the longer build time due to parsing the indexing the full CS contexts.
For a CS flat profile, though only the context profiles relevant to a module are loaded when that module is compiled, the cost to figure out what profiles are relevant is noticeably high when there're many contexts, since the sample reader will need to scan all context strings anyway. On the contrary, a nested function profile has its related inline subcontexts isolated from other unrelated contexts. Therefore when compiling a set of functions, unrelated contexts will never need to be scanned.
In this change we are exploring using nested profile format for CSSPGO. This is expected to work based on an assumption that with a preinliner-computed profile all contexts are precomputed and expected to be inlined by the compiler. Contexts not expected to be inlined will be cut off and returned to corresponding base profiles (for top-level outlined functions). This naturally forms a nested profile where all nested contexts are expected to be inlined. The compiler will less likely optimize on derived contexts that are not precomputed.
A CS-nested profile will look exactly the same with regular nested profile except that each nested profile can come with an attributes. With pseudo probes, a nested profile shown as below can also have a CFG checksum.
```
main:1968679:12

Specific work included in this change:
- A recursive profile converter to convert CS flat profile to nested profile.
- Extend function checksum and attribute metadata to be stored in nested way for text profile and extbinary profile.
- Unifiy sample loader inliner path for CS and preinlined nested profile.
- Changes in the sample loader to support probe-based nested profile.
I've seen promising results regarding build time. A nested profile can result in a 20% shorter build time than a CS flat profile while keep an on-par performance. This is with -duplicate-contexts-into-base=1.

Some tests with binary IDs would fail with error: no profile can be merged.
This is because raw profiles could have unaligned headers when emitting binary
IDs. This means padding should be emitted after binary IDs are emitted to
ensure everything else is aligned. This patch adds padding after each binary ID
to ensure the next binary ID size is 8-byte aligned. This also adds extra
checks to ensure we aren't reading corrupted data when printing binary IDs.

With the context split work, the context-based (an array of strings) sorting performed at profile load time is way more expansive than single-string-based sorting. This is likely due to auxiliary operations done on each array element, such as indirect references, std::min operations, also likely cache misses. In this change I'm presorting profiles during profile generation time to avoid sorting at compile time.
Compared to the previous context-split work, this effectively cuts down compile time by 20% for one of our large services and brings us closer to non-CS build, with still a small gap in build time.

Currently context strings contain a lot of duplicated function names and that significantly increase the profile size. This change split the context into a series of {name, offset, discriminator} tuples so function names used in the context can be replaced by the index into the name table and that significantly reduce the size consumed by context.
A follow-up improvement made in the compiler and profiling tools is to avoid reconstructing full context strings which is time- and memory- consuming. Instead a context vector of `StringRef` is adopted to represent the full context in all scenarios. As a result, the previous prevalent profile map which was implemented as a `StringRef` is now engineered as an unordered map keyed by `SampleContext`. `SampleContext` is reshaped to using an `ArrayRef` to represent a full context for CS profile. For non-CS profile, it falls back to use `StringRef` to represent a contextless function name. Both the `ArrayRef` and `StringRef` objects are underpinned by real array and string objects that are stored in producer buffers. For compiler, they are maintained by the sample reader. For llvm-profgen, they are maintained in `ProfiledBinary` and `ProfileGenerator`. Full context strings can be generated only in those cases of debugging and printing.
When it comes to profile format, nothing has changed to the text format, though internally CS context is implemented as a vector. Extbinary format is only changed for CS profile, with an additional `SecCSNameTable` section which stores all full contexts logically in the form of `vector<int>`, which each element as an offset points to `SecNameTable`. All occurrences of contexts elsewhere are redirected to using the offset of `SecCSNameTable`.
Testing
This is no-diff change in terms of code quality and profile content (for text profile).
For our internal large service (aka ads), the profile generation is cut to half, with a 20x smaller string-based extbinary format generated.
The compile time of ads is dropped by 25%.

The change adds a switch to allow sample loader to use global pre-inliner's decision instead. The pre-inliner in llvm-profgen makes inline decision globally based on whole program profile and function byte size as cost proxy.
Since pre-inliner also adjusts/merges context profile based on its inline decision, honoring its inline decision in sample loader would lead to better post-inline profile quality especially for thinlto where cross module profile merging isn't possible without pre-inliner.
Minor fix in profile reader is also included. When pre-inliner is use, we now also turn off the default merging and trimming logic unless it's explicitly asked.

.quad l___profc_foo-l___profd_foo
# COFF: we actually use IMAGE_REL_AMD64_REL32/IMAGE_REL_ARM64_REL32 so
# the high 32-bit value is zero even if .L__profc_foo < .L__profd_foo
# As compensation, we truncate CountersDelta in the header so that
# __llvm_profile_merge_from_buffer and llvm-profdata reader keep working.
.quad .L__profc_foo-.L__profd_foo

(Note: link.exe sorts `.lprfc` before `.lprfd` even if the object writer
has `.lprfd` before `.lprfc`, so we cannot work around by reordering
`.lprfc` and `.lprfd`.)
