.gnu_debuglink section contains information regarding file with
debugging symbols, identified by its CRC32. This target file is not
intended to ever change or it would invalidate the stored checksum, yet
the checksum is calculated over and over again for each of the objects
inside the archive, usually hundreds of times.
This patch precomputes the CRC32 of the target once and then reuses the
value where required, saving lots of redundant I/O.
The error message reported should stay the same, although now it might
be reported earlier.

This patch adds support for --prefix-alloc-sections, which adds a prefix
to every allocated section names.
It adds a prefix after renaming section names by --rename-section as GNU
objcopy does.

If certain switches are not specified, llvm-strip behaves as if
--strip-all were specified. This means that for testing, when we don't
want the stripping behaviour, we have to specify one of these switches,
which can be confusing. This change adds --no-strip-all to allow an
alternative way of suppressing the default stripping, in a less
confusing manner.

llvm-objcopy currently emits an error if a section to be removed is
referenced by another section. This is a reasonable thing to do, but is
different to GNU objcopy. We should allow users who know what they are
doing to have a way to produce the invalid ELF. This change adds a new
switch --allow-broken-links to both llvm-strip and llvm-objcopy to do
precisely that. The corresponding sh_link field is then set to 0 instead
of an error being emitted.
I cannot use llvm-readelf/readobj to test the link fields because they
emit an error if any sections, like the .dynsym, cannot be properly
loaded.

Summary:
This change takes the full list of bfd targets that lld supports (see `ScriptParser.cpp`), including generic handling for `*-freebsd` targets (which uses the same settings but with a FreeBSD OSABI). In particular this adds mips support for `--output-target` (but not yet via `--binary-architecture`).
lld and llvm-objcopy use their own different custom data structures, so I'd prefer to check this in as-is (add support directly in llvm-objcopy, including all the test coverage) and do a separate NFC patch(s) that consolidate the two by putting this mapping into libobject.

GNU objcopy can support output formats like elf32-i386-freebsd and
elf64-x86-64-freebsd. The only difference from their regular non-freebsd
counterparts that I have observed is that the freebsd versions set the
OS/ABI field to ELFOSABI_FREEBSD. This patch sets the OS/ABI field
according based on the format whenever --output-format is specified.

This removes calls to `error()`/`reportError()` in the main driver (llvm-objcopy.cpp) as well as the associated argv-parsing (CopyConfig.cpp). `logAllUnhandledErrors()` is now the main way to print errors.
There are still a few uses from within the per-arch drivers, so we can't delete them yet... but almost!

Summary:
This adds support for the --discard-locals flag, which acts similarly to --discard-all, except it only applies to compiler-generated symbols (i.e. symbols starting with `.L` in ELF).
I am not sure about COFF local symbols: those appear to also use `.L` in most cases, but also use just `L` in other cases, so for now I am just leaving it unimplemented there.

Summary:
--set-section-flags is used to change the section flags (e.g. SHF_ALLOC) for given sections. The flags allowed are the same from the existing --rename-section=.old=.new[,flags] feature.
Additionally, make sure that --set-section-flag cannot be used with --rename-section (either the source or destination), since --rename-section accepts flags. This avoids ambiguity for something like "--rename-section=.foo=.bar,alloc --set-section-flag=.bar,code".

to reflect the new license.
We understand that people may be surprised that we're moving the header
entirely to discuss the new license. We checked this carefully with the
Foundation's lawyer and we believe this is the correct approach.
Essentially, all code in the project is now made available by the LLVM
project under our new license, so you will see that the license headers
include that license only. Some of our contributors have contributed
code under our old license, and accordingly, we have retained a copy of
our old license notice in the top-level files in each project and

I just hard core goofed when I wrote this and created a different name
for no good reason. I'm failry aware of most "fresh" users of llvm-objcopy

objcopy) and can say that only "-j" is being used by such people so this
patch should strictly increase compatibility and not remove it.

This flag does not exist in GNU objcopy but has a major use case.
Debugging tools support the .build-id directory structure to find
debug binaries. There is no easy way to build this structure up
however. One way to do it is by using llvm-readelf and some crazy
shell magic. This implements the feature directly. It is most often
the case that you'll want to strip a file and send the original to
the .build-id directory but if you just want to send a file to the
.build-id directory you can copy to /dev/null instead.

In fact, for GNU compatability, -K is --keep-symbol, so it's weird that the alias `-K` is not the same as the short-ish `--keep`.

Summary:
GNU strip supports both `-s` and `-S` as aliases for `--strip-all` and `--strip-debug`, respectfully.
As part of this, it turns out that strip/objcopy were accepting case insensitive command line args. I'm not sure if there was an explicit reason for this. The only others uses of this are llvm-cvtres/llvm-mt/llvm-lib, which are all tools specific for windows support. Forcing case sensitivity allows both aliases to exist, but seems like a good idea anyway.
And as a surprise test case adjustment, the llvm-strip unit test was running with `-keep=unavailable_symbol`, despite `keep` not be a valid flag for strip. This is because there is a flag `-K` which, when case insensitivity is permitted, allows it to be interpreted as `-K` = `eep=unavailable_symbol` (e.g. to allow `-Kfoo` == `--keep-symbol=foo`).

Summary:
This change adds support for the GNU --target flag, which sets both --input-target and --output-target.
GNU objcopy doesn't do any checking for whether both --target and --{input,output}-target are used, and so it allows both, e.g. "--target A --output-target B" is equivalent to "--input-target A --output-target B" since the later command line flag would override earlier ones. This may be error prone, so I chose to implement it as an error if both are used. I'm not sure if anyone is actually using both.
