Rahman Lavaee 7841e21c98 Let -basic-block-sections=labels emit basicblock metadata in a new .bb_addr_map section, instead of emitting special unary-encoded symbols.
This patch introduces the new .bb_addr_map section feature which allows us to emit the bits needed for mapping binary profiles to basic blocks into a separate section.
The format of the emitted data is represented as follows. It includes a header for every function:

|  Address of the function                      |  -> 8 bytes (pointer size)
|  Number of basic blocks in this function (>0) |  -> ULEB128

The header is followed by a BB record for every basic block. These records are ordered in the same order as MachineBasicBlocks are placed in the function. Each BB Info is structured as follows:

|  Offset of the basic block relative to function begin |  -> ULEB128
|  Binary size of the basic block                       |  -> ULEB128
|  BB metadata                                          |  -> ULEB128  [ MBB.isReturn() OR MBB.hasTailCall() << 1  OR  MBB.isEHPad() << 2 ]

The new feature will replace the existing "BB labels" functionality with -basic-block-sections=labels.
The .bb_addr_map section scrubs the specially-encoded BB symbols from the binary and makes it friendly to profilers and debuggers.
Furthermore, the new feature reduces the binary size overhead from 70% bloat to only 12%.
