Atmn Patel ec8f4a38c8 [OpenMP][Libomptarget] Introduce Remote Offloading Plugin
This introduces a remote offloading plugin for libomptarget. This
implementation relies on gRPC and protobuf, so this library will only
build if both libraries are available on the system. The corresponding
server is compiled to `openmp-offloading-server`.

This is a large change, but the only way to split this up is into RTL/server
but I fear that could introduce an inconsistency amongst them.

Ideally, tests for this should be added to the current ones that but that is
problematic for at least one reason. Given that libomptarget registers plugin
on a first-come-first-serve basis, if we wanted to offload onto a local x86
through a different process, then we'd have to either re-order the plugin list
in `rtl.cpp` (which is what I did locally for testing) or find a better
solution for runtime plugin registration in libomptarget.

OpenMP LLVM Documentation
==================

OpenMP LLVM's documentation is written in reStructuredText, a lightweight
plaintext markup language (file extension `.rst`). While the
reStructuredText documentation should be quite readable in source form, it
is mostly meant to be processed by the Sphinx documentation generation
system to create HTML pages which are hosted on <https://llvm.org/docs/> and
updated after every commit. Manpage output is also supported, see below.

If you instead would like to generate and view the HTML locally, install
Sphinx <http://sphinx-doc.org/> and then do:

    cd <build-dir>
    cmake -DLLVM_ENABLE_SPHINX=true -DSPHINX_OUTPUT_HTML=true <src-dir>
    make
    $BROWSER <build-dir>/projects/openmp/docs//html/index.html

The mapping between reStructuredText files and generated documentation is
`docs/Foo.rst` <-> `<build-dir>/projects/openmp/docs//html/Foo.html` <->
`https://openmp.llvm.org/docs/Foo.html`.

If you are interested in writing new documentation, you will want to read
`llvm/docs/SphinxQuickstartTemplate.rst` which will get you writing
documentation very fast and includes examples of the most important
reStructuredText markup syntax.

Manpage Output
===============

Building the manpages is similar to building the HTML documentation. The
primary difference is to use the `man` makefile target, instead of the
default (which is `html`). Sphinx then produces the man pages in the
directory `<build-dir>/docs/man/`.

    cd <build-dir>
    cmake -DLLVM_ENABLE_SPHINX=true -DSPHINX_OUTPUT_MAN=true <src-dir>
    make
    man -l >build-dir>/docs/man/FileCheck.1

The correspondence between .rst files and man pages is
`docs/CommandGuide/Foo.rst` <-> `<build-dir>/projects/openmp/docs//man/Foo.1`.
These .rst files are also included during HTML generation so they are also
viewable online (as noted above) at e.g.
`https://openmp.llvm.org/docs/CommandGuide/Foo.html`.
