The llvm-ar command guide had not been updated in some time, it was
missing current functionality and contained information that was out
of date. This change:
- Updates the use of reStructuredText directives, as seen in other tools
command guides.
- Updates the command synopsis.
- Updates the descriptions of the tool behaviour.
- Updates the options section.
- Adds details of MRI script functionality.
- Removes the sections "Standards" and "File Format"

Summary: GNU objcopy accepts the --wildcard flag to allow wildcard matching on symbol-related flags. (Note: it's implicitly true for section flags).
The basic syntax is to allow *, ?, \, and [] which work similarly to how they work in a shell. Additionally, starting a wildcard with ! causes that wildcard to prevent it from matching a flag.
Use an updated GlobPattern in libSupport to handle these patterns. It does not fully match the `fnmatch` used by GNU objcopy since named character classes (e.g. `[[:digit:]]`) are not supported, but this should support most existing use cases (mostly just `*` is what's used anyway).

i believe it may be somewhat useful to show //some// aggregates

```
Average Wait times (based on the timeline view):
[0]: Executions
[1]: Average time spent waiting in a scheduler's queue
[2]: Average time spent waiting in a scheduler's queue while ready
[3]: Average time elapsed from WB until retire stage
[0] [1] [2] [3]
0. 3 1.0 1.0 4.7 vmulps %xmm0, %xmm1, %xmm2
1. 3 2.7 0.0 2.3 vhaddps %xmm2, %xmm2, %xmm3
2. 3 6.0 0.0 0.0 vhaddps %xmm3, %xmm3, %xmm4

GNU objcopy documents that -B is only useful with architecture-less
input (i.e. "binary" or "ihex"). After D67144, -O defaults to -I, and
-B is essentially a NOP.
* If -O is binary/ihex, GNU objcopy ignores -B.
* If -O is elf*, -B provides the e_machine field in GNU objcopy.
So to convert a blob to an ELF, `-I binary -B i386:x86-64 -O elf64-x86-64` has to be specified.
`-I binary -B i386:x86-64 -O elf64-x86-64` creates an ELF with its
e_machine field set to EM_NONE in GNU objcopy, but a regular x86_64 ELF
in elftoolchain elfcopy. Follow the elftoolchain approach (ignoring -B)
to simplify code. Users that expect their command line portable should
specify -B.

Summary:
Commit r366897 introduced the possibility to set a variable from an
expression, such as [[#VAR2:VAR1+3]]. While introducing this feature, it
introduced extra logic to allow using such a variable on the same line
later on. Unfortunately that extra logic is flawed as it relies on a
mapping from variable to expression defining it when the mapping is from
variable definition to expression. This flaw causes among other issues
PR42896.
This commit avoids the problem by forbidding all use of a variable
defined on the same line, and removes the now useless logic. Redesign
will be done in a later commit because it will require some amount of
refactoring first for the solution to be clean. One example is the need
for some sort of transaction mechanism to set a variable temporarily and
from an expression and rollback if the CHECK pattern does not match so
that diagnostics show the right variable values.

This is weirdly broken in different ways depending on which versions of sphinx and recommonmark are being used, so workaround the bug by using rst everywhere.

Flag -show-encoding enables the printing of instruction encodings as part of the
the instruction info view.
Example (with flags -mtriple=x86_64-- -mcpu=btver2):
Instruction Info:
[1]: #uOps
[2]: Latency
[3]: RThroughput
[4]: MayLoad
[5]: MayStore
[6]: HasSideEffects (U)
[7]: Encoding Size
[1] [2] [3] [4] [5] [6] [7] Encodings: Instructions:
1 2 1.00 4 c5 f0 59 d0 vmulps %xmm0, %xmm1, %xmm2
1 4 1.00 4 c5 eb 7c da vhaddps %xmm2, %xmm2, %xmm3
1 4 1.00 4 c5 e3 7c e3 vhaddps %xmm3, %xmm3, %xmm4
In this example, column Encoding Size is the size in bytes of the instruction
encoding. Column Encodings reports the actual instruction encodings as byte
sequences in hex (objdump style).
The computation of encodings is done by a utility class named mca::CodeEmitter.
In future, I plan to expose the CodeEmitter to the instruction builder, so that
information about instruction encoding sizes can be used by the simulator. That
would be a first step towards simulating the throughput from the decoders in the
hardware frontend.
