Summary:
There are a few LLVM projects that produce runtime libraries. Ideally
runtime libraries should be built differently than other projects,
specifically they should be built using the just-built toolchain.
There is support for building compiler-rt in this way from the clang
build. Moving this logic into the LLVM build is interesting because it
provides a simpler way to extend the just-built toolchain to include
LLD and the LLVM object file tools.
Once this functionality is better fleshed out and tested we’ll want to
encapsulate it in a module that can be used for clang standalone
builds, and we’ll want to make it the default way to build compiler-rt.
With this patch applied there is no immediate change in the build.
Moving compiler-rt out from llvm/projects into llvm/runtimes enables
the functionality.
This code has a few improvements over the method provided by
LLVM_BUILD_EXTERNAL_COMPILER_RT. Specifically the sub-ninja command is
always invoked, so changes to compiler-rt source files will get built
properly, so this patch can be used for iterative development with
just-built tools.
This first patch only works with compiler-rt. Support for other
runtime projects will be coming in follow-up patches.

Avoid listing inclusions (like `!projects/LLVMBuild.txt`) for files
directly underneath `projects/` in `.gitignore`. Instead, change the
`projects/*` exclusion to the more specific `projects/*/`.

Often, we miss committing new files, and 'arc diff' is supposed to warn
us about this. Unfortunately, because of the spurious output of the
command (due to unignored untracked files), we tend to ignore it and
lose information.

This code is based on the existing LLVM Go bindings project hosted at:
https://github.com/go-llvm/llvm
Note that all contributors to the gollvm project have agreed to relicense
their changes under the LLVM license and submit them to the LLVM project.

As an example that was not actually being used, it suffered from a slow bitrot.
The two main issues with it were that it had no cmake support and
included a copy of the autoconf directory. The reality is that
autoconf is not easily composable. The lack of composabilty is why we
have clang options in llvm's configure. Suggesting that users include
a copy of autoconf/ in their projects seems a bad idea.
We are also in the process of switching to cmake, so pushing autoconf
to new project is probably not what we want.

According to http://clang.llvm.org/docs/HowToSetupToolingForLLVM.html
it's suggested that compile_commands.json in the root of the LLVM source tree
should be a symlink to the json file produced by your build system of choice.
So here's a patch so it doesn't turn up in git status, etc.
