In D130807 we added the `skipprofile` attribute. This commit
changes the format so we can either `forbid` or `skip` profiling
functions by adding the `noprofile` or `skipprofile` attributes,
respectively. The behavior of the original format remains
unchanged.
Also, add the `skipprofile` attribute when using
`-fprofile-function-groups`.
This was originally landed as https://reviews.llvm.org/D130808 but was
reverted due to a Windows test failure.

As discussed in [0], this diff adds the `skipprofile` attribute to
prevent the function from being profiled while allowing profiled
functions to be inlined into it. The `noprofile` attribute remains
unchanged.
The `noprofile` attribute is used for functions where it is
dangerous to add instrumentation to while the `skipprofile` attribute is
used to reduce code size or performance overhead.

Add two options, `-fprofile-function-groups=N` and `-fprofile-selected-function-group=i` used to partition functions into `N` groups and only instrument the functions in group `i`. Similar options were added to xray in https://reviews.llvm.org/D87953 and the goal is the same; to reduce instrumented size overhead by spreading the overhead across multiple builds. Raw profiles from different groups can be added like normal using the `llvm-profdata merge` command.
