This patch is part of a series to support driver managed module builds for C++ named modules and Clang modules. This introduces a scanner that detects C++ named module usage early in the driver with only negligible overhead. For now, it is enabled only with the `-fmodules-driver` flag and serves solely diagnostic purposes. In the future, the scanner will be enabled for any (modules-driver compatible) compilation with two or more inputs, and will help the driver determine whether to implicitly enable the modules driver. Since the scanner adds very little overhead, we are also exploring enabling it for compilations with only a single input. This approach could allow us to detect `import std` usage in a single-file compilation, which would then activate the modules driver. For performance measurements on this, see https://github.com/naveen-seth/llvm-dev-cxx-modules-check-benchmark.

The earlier reland failed due to a missing link dependency on `clangLex`. This reland fixes the issue by adding the link dependency after discussing it in the following RFC: https://discourse.llvm.org/t/rfc-driver-link-the-driver-against-clangdependencyscanning-clangast-clangfrontend-clangserialization-and-clanglex
The LLVM Compiler Infrastructure
Welcome to the LLVM project!
This repository contains the source code for LLVM, a toolkit for the construction of highly optimized compilers, optimizers, and run-time environments.
The LLVM project has multiple components. The core of the project is itself called "LLVM". This contains all of the tools, libraries, and header files needed to process intermediate representations and convert them into object files. Tools include an assembler, disassembler, bitcode analyzer, and bitcode optimizer.
C-like languages use the Clang frontend. This component compiles C, C++, Objective-C, and Objective-C++ code into LLVM bitcode -- and from there into object files, using LLVM.
Other components include: the libc++ C++ standard library, the LLD linker, and more.
