Using this, you can use llvm-pdbutil to export the contents of a
stream to a binary file, then run explain on the binary file so
that it treats the offset as an offset into the stream instead
of an offset into a file. This makes it easy to compare the
contents of the same stream from two different files.

This will show more detail when using `llvm-pdbutil explain` on an
offset in the DBI or PDB streams. Specifically, it will dig into
individual header fields and substreams to give a more precise
description of what the byte represents.

When we determine that a field belongs to an MSF super block or
the free page map, we wouldn't print any additional information.
With this patch, we now print the value of the field (for super
block fields) or the allocation status of the specified byte (in
the case of offsets in the FPM).

We were trying to dig into the super block fields and print a
description of the field at the specified offset, but we were
printing the wrong field due to an off-by-one-field-error.

When investigating various things, we often have a file offset
and what to know what's in the PDB at that address. For example
we may be doing a binary comparison of two LLD-generated PDBs
to look for sources of non-determinism, or we may wish to compare
an LLD-generated PDB with a Microsoft generated PDB for sources
of byte-for-byte incompatibility. In these cases, we can do a
binary diff of the two files, and once we find a mismatched byte
we can use explain to figure out what that byte is, immediately
honining in on the problem.
This patch implements this by trying to narrow the meaning of
a particular file offset down as much as possible.
