This commit provides linker support for Cortex-M Security Extensions (CMSE).
The specification for this feature can be found in ARM v8-M Security Extensions:
Requirements on Development Tools.
The linker synthesizes a security gateway veneer in a special section;
`.gnu.sgstubs`, when it finds non-local symbols `__acle_se_<entry>` and `<entry>`,
defined relative to the same text section and having the same address. The
address of `<entry>` is retargeted to the starting address of the
linker-synthesized security gateway veneer in section `.gnu.sgstubs`.
In summary, the linker translates input:
```
.text
entry:
__acle_se_entry:
[entry_code]
```
into:
```
.section .gnu.sgstubs
entry:
SG
B.W __acle_se_entry
.text
__acle_se_entry:
[entry_code]
```
If addresses of `__acle_se_<entry>` and `<entry>` are not equal, the linker
considers that `<entry>` already defines a secure gateway veneer so does not
synthesize one.
If `--out-implib=<out.lib>` is specified, the linker writes the list of secure
gateway veneers into a CMSE import library `<out.lib>`. The CMSE import library
will have 3 sections: `.symtab`, `.strtab`, `.shstrtab`. For every secure gateway
veneer <entry> at address `<addr>`, `.symtab` contains a `SHN_ABS` symbol `<entry>` with
value `<addr>`.
If `--in-implib=<in.lib>` is specified, the linker reads the existing CMSE import
library `<in.lib>` and preserves the entry function addresses in the resulting
executable and new import library.

Arm has BE8 big endian configuration called a byte-invariant(every byte has the same address on little and big-endian systems).
When in BE8 mode:
1. Instructions are big-endian in relocatable objects but
little-endian in executables and shared objects.
2. Data is big-endian.
3. The data encoding of the ELF file is ELFDATA2MSB.
To support BE8 without an ABI break for relocatable objects,the linker takes on the responsibility of changing the endianness of instructions. At a high level the only difference between BE32 and BE8 in the linker is that for BE8:
1. The linker sets the flag EF_ARM_BE8 in the ELF header.
2. The linker endian reverses the instructions, but not data.
This patch adds BE8 big endian support for Arm. To endian reverse the instructions we'll need access to the mapping symbols. Code sections can contain a mix of Arm, Thumb and literal data. We need to endian reverse Arm instructions as words, Thumb instructions
as half-words and ignore literal data.The only way to find these transitions precisely is by using mapping symbols. The instruction reversal will need to take place after relocation. For Arm BE8 code sections (Section has SHF_EXECINSTR flag ) we inserted a step after relocation to endian reverse the instructions. The implementation strategy i have used here is to write all sections BE32 including SyntheticSections then endian reverse all code in InputSections via mapping symbols.

--remap-inputs-file= can be specified multiple times, each naming a
remap file that contains `from-glob=to-file` lines or `#`-led comments.
('=' is used a separator a la -fdebug-prefix-map=)
--remap-inputs-file= can be used to:
* replace an input file. E.g. `"*/libz.so=exp/libz.so"` can replace a resolved
`-lz` without updating the input file list or (if used) a response file.
When debugging an application where a bug is isolated to one single
input file, this option gives a convenient way to test fixes.
* remove an input file with `/dev/null` (changed to `NUL` on Windows), e.g.
`"a.o=/dev/null"`. A build system may add unneeded dependencies.
This option gives a convenient way to test the result removing some inputs.
`--remap-inputs=a.o=aa.o` can be specified to provide one pattern without using
an extra file.
(bash/zsh process substitution is handy for specifying a pattern without using
a remap file, e.g. `--remap-inputs-file=<(printf 'a.o=aa.o')`, but it may be
unavailable in some systems. An extra file can be inconvenient for a build
system.)
Exact patterns are tested before wildcard patterns. In case of a tie, the first
patterns wins. This is an implementation detail that users should not rely on.

Allow controlling the CodeGenOpt::Level independent of the LTO
optimization level in LLD via new options for the COFF, ELF, MachO, and
wasm frontends to lld. Most are spelled as --lto-CGO[0-3], but COFF is
spelled as -opt:lldltocgo=[0-3].
See D57422 for discussion surrounding the issue of how to set the CG opt
level. The ultimate goal is to let each function control its CG opt
level, but until then the current default means it is impossible to
specify a CG opt level lower than 2 while using LTO. This option gives
the user a means to control it for as long as it is not handled on a
per-function basis.

Mach-O ld64 supports -w to suppress warnings. GNU ld 2.40 will support the
option as well (https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=29654).
This feature has some small value. E.g. when analyzing a large executable with
relocation overflow issues, we may use --noinhibit-exec --emit-relocs to get an
output file with static relocations despite relocation overflow issues. -w can
significantly improve the link time as printing the massive warnings is slow.

In GNU ld,
* --version skips linker input processing.
* -v and -V keep processing if there is any input file. -V has more
information we don't support.
We currently make -V an alias for --version which skips input processing.
On many `*-freebsd` and `powerpc-*` targets, `gcc -v` passes `-V` to ld
and expects to process input. Make -V an alias for -v to provide
compatibility.

`clang -gz=zstd a.o` passes this option to the linker. This option compresses output
debug sections with zstd and sets ch_type to ELFCOMPRESS_ZSTD. As of today, very
few DWARF consumers recognize ELFCOMPRESS_ZSTD.
Use the llvm::zstd::compress API with level llvm::zstd::DefaultCompression (5),
which we may tune after we have more experience with zstd output.
zstd has built-in parallel compression support (so we don't need to do D117853
for zlib), which is not leveraged yet.

Allows ThinLTO indices to be written to disk on-the-fly/as-part-of “normal” linker execution. Previously ThinLTO indices could be written via --thinlto-index-only but that would cause the linker to exit early. For MLGO specifically, this enables saving the ThinLTO index files without having to restart the linker to collect data only available at later stages (i.e. output of --save-temps) of the linker's execution.
Note, this option does not currently work with:
--thinlto-object-suffix-replace, as this is intended to be used to consume minimized IR bitcode files while --thinlto-emit-index-files is intended to be run together with InProcessThinLTO (which cannot parse minimized IR).

LTO code may end up mixing bitcode files from various sources varying in
their use of opaque pointer types. The current strategy to decide
between opaque / typed pointers upon the first bitcode file loaded does
not work here, since we could be loading a non-opaque bitcode file first
and would then be unable to load any files with opaque pointer types
later.
So for LTO this:
- Adds an `lto::Config::OpaquePointer` option and enforces an upfront
decision between the two modes.
- Adds `-opaque-pointers`/`-no-opaque-pointers` options to the gold
plugin; disabled by default.
- `--opaque-pointers`/`--no-opaque-pointers` options with
`-plugin-opt=-opaque-pointers`/`-plugin-opt=-no-opaque-pointers`
aliases to lld; disabled by default.
- Adds an `-lto-opaque-pointers` option to the `llvm-lto2` tool.
- Changes the clang driver to pass `-plugin-opt=-opaque-pointers` to
the linker in LTO modes when clang was configured with opaque
pointers enabled by default.

This flag is added by clang::driver::tools::addLTOOptions() and was causing

This ELF note is aarch64 and Android-specific. It specifies to the

protection of stack and heap regions.
Current synthesis of the ".note.android.memtag" ELF note is done in the
Android build system. We'd like to move that to the compiler. This patch
adds the --memtag-stack, --memtag-heap, and --memtag-mode={async, sync,
none} flags to the linker, which synthesises the note for us.
Future changes will add -fsanitize=memtag* flags to clang which will

In GNU ld, -dc only affects -r links and causes COMMON symbols to be allocated.
--no-define-common is defined to make COMMON symbols undefined for -shared.
AIUI --no-define-common is a workaround around glibc 2.1 time and not really useful.
gold confuses --define-common with -d/FORCE_COMMON_ALLOCATION and implements
--define-common with -d semantics. Its --no-define-common is incompatible with
GNU ld.
In ld.lld, b2a23cf3c08cee45614f27eb2c6d044e506aa6a6 fixed the default -r
behavior for COMMON symbols but ported the incompatible gold
--[no-]define-common. To the best of my knowledge, no project uses -dp
--[no-]define-common. So just remove these options.
-d/-dc are used by the following projects:
* grub grub-core/genmod.sh.in uses -Wl,-r,-d (https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/grub-devel/2022-02/msg00088.html)
* FreeBSD crunchgen uses -Wl,-dc (https://reviews.freebsd.org/D34215)
A no-op implementation works for them. Only when a program inspects relocatable
output by itself and does not recognize COMMON symbols, there may be a problem.
This is an extremely unlikely case.

They are LLD-specific and by convention we enforce the double-dash form to avoid
collision with short options (e.g. weird `-c olor-diagnostics` interpretation in
GNU ld). They are rarely used and to the best of my investigation the undesired
single-dash forms are not used in the wild.
Everyone uses -l -L instead of the long option counterparts.
Make help messages attach to -L -l and (--reproduce) use them for response.txt
command line options.
This allows --power10-stubs= and --[no-]power10-stubs to override each other
(they are position dependent in GNU ld).
Also improve --help messages and the manpage.
Note: GNU ld's default "auto" mode uses heuristics to decide whether Power10
instructions are used. Arguably it is a design mistake of R_PPC64_REL24_NOTOC
(acked by the relevant folks on a libc-alpha discussion). We don't implement
"auto", so the default --power10-stubs is the same as "yes".
The canonical term is "extract" (GNU ld documentation, Solaris's `-z *extract`
options). Avoid inventing a term and match --why-extract. (ld64 prefers "load"
but the word is overloaded too much)
Mostly MFC, except for --help messages and the header row in
--print-archive-stats output.
