When GNU_PROPERTY_X86_FEATURE_1_IBT is enabled, ld.lld will create .plt output
section even if there is no PLT entry. Fix this by implementing
IBTPltSection::isNeeded instead of using the default code path (which always
returns true).

ObjFile::parse combines symbol initialization and resolution. Many tasks
unrelated to symbol resolution can be postponed and parallelized. This patch
extracts local symbol initialization and parallelizes it.
Technically the new function initializeLocalSymbols can be merged into
ObjFile::postParse, but functions like getSrcMsg may access the
uninitialized (all nullptr) local part of InputFile::symbols.

* detect `def_tls.o undef_nontls.o` violation
* place error checking code (checking duplicate symbol) together
* allow `--defsym tls1=tls2 def_tls.o`
As a degraded error checking, `--defsym tls1=42` violation will not be detected.
Symbol.h depends on InputFiles.h. This change moves us toward dropping the
weird dependency.
The call sites will become slightly uglier (`cast<SharedFile>(s->file)`), but
the compromise is acceptable.
In GNU ld, the definition precedence is: regular symbol assignment > relocatable object definition > `PROVIDE` symbol assignment.
GNU ld's internal linker scripts define the non-reserved (by C and C++)
edata/end/etext with `PROVIDE` so the relocatable object definition takes
precedence. This makes sense because `int end;` is valid.
We currently redefine such symbols if they are COMMON, but not if they are
regular definitions, so `int end;` with -fcommon is essentially a UB in ld.lld.
Fix this (also improve consistency and match GNU ld) by using the
`isDefined` code path for `isCommon`. In GNU ld, reserved identifiers like
`__ehdr_start` do not use `PROVIDE`, while we treat them all as `PROVIDE`, this
seems fine.

To decouple symbol initialization and section initialization, `Defined::section`
assignment should be postponed after input file parsing. To avoid spurious
duplicate definition error due to two definitions in COMDAT groups of the same
signature, we should postpone the duplicate symbol check.
The function is called postScan instead of a more specific name like
checkDuplicateSymbols, because we may merge Symbol::mergeProperties into
postScan. It is placed after compileBitcodeFiles to apply to ET_REL files
produced by LTO. This causes minor diagnostic regression
for skipLinkedOutput configurations: ld.lld --thinlto-index-only a.bc b.o
(bitcode definition prevails) won't detect duplicate symbol error. I think this
is an acceptable compromise. The important cases where (a) both files are
bitcode or (b) --thinlto-index-only is unused are still detected.

In many call sites we know uncompression cannot happen (non-SHF_ALLOC, or the
data (even if compressed) must have been uncompressed by a previous pass).
Prefer rawData in these cases. data() increases code size and prevents
optimization on rawData.

Making a (NOLOAD) section SHT_PROGBITS is fishy (the user may expect all-zero
content, but the linker does not check that), but some projects (e.g. Linux
kernel https://github.com/ClangBuiltLinux/linux/issues/1597) traditionally rely
on the behavior. Issue a warning to not break them.
Symbols for which `canBeOmittedFromSymbolTable()` is true should be
treated as private externs. This diff tries to do that by unsetting the
ExportDynamic bit. It seems to mostly work with the FullLTO backend, but
with the ThinLTO backend, the `local_unnamed_addr` symbols still fail to
be properly hidden. Nonetheless, this is a step in the right direction.
I've documented all the remaining differences between our behavior and
LD64's in the lto-internalized-unnamed-addr.ll test.

The current output section type allows to set the ELF section type to
SHT_PROGBITS or SHT_NOLOAD. This patch allows an arbitrary section value
to be specified. Some common SHT_* literal names are supported as well.
```
SECTIONS {
note (TYPE=SHT_NOTE) : { BYTE(8) *(note) }
init_array ( TYPE=14 ) : { QUAD(14) }
fini_array (TYPE = SHT_FINI_ARRAY) : { QUAD(15) }
}
```
When `sh_type` is specified, it is an error if an input section has a different type.
Our syntax is compatible with GNU ld 2.39 (https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=28841).

If both an order file and a call graph profile are present, the edges of the
call graph which use symbols present in the order file are not used. All of
the symbols in the order file will appear at the beginning of the section just
as they do currently. In other words, the highest priority derived from the
call graph will be below the lowest priority derived from the order file.
Practically, this change renames CallGraphSort.{h,cpp} to SectionPriorities.{h,cpp},
and most order file and call graph profile related code is moved into the new
file to reduce duplication.

Main motivation: including `llvm/CodeGen/CommandFlags.h` in
`CommonLinkerContext.h` means that the declaration of `llvm::Reloc` is
visible in any file that includes `CommonLinkerContext.h`. Since our
cpp files have both `using namespace llvm` and `using namespace
lld::macho`, this results in conflicts with `lld::macho::Reloc`.
I suppose we could put `llvm::Reloc` into a nested namespace, but in general,
I think we should avoid transitively including too many header files in
a very widely used header like `CommonLinkerContext.h`.
RegisterCodeGenFlags' ctor initializes a bunch of function-`static`
structures and does nothing else, so it should be fine to "initialize"
it as a temporary stack variable rather than as a file static.
