It is sometimes useful to have the C++ standard library linked into the
assembly when compiling clang, particularly when distributing a compiler
onto systems that don't have a copy of stdlibc++ or libc++ installed.
This functionality should work with either GCC or Clang as the host
compiler, though statically linking libc++ (as may be required for
licensing purposes) is only possible if the host compiler is Clang with
a copy of libc++ available.

Summary: When libc++ is used to build CLANG, its XRay libraries libclang_rt.xray-*.a have dependencies on libc++. Therefore, libc++ is needed to link and run XRay test cases. For Linux -rpath is also needed to specify where to load libc++. This change sets macro LLVM_LIBCXX_USED to 1 if libc++ is actually used in the build. XRay tests then check the flag and add -L<llvm_shlib_dir> -lc++ and -Wl,-rpath=<llvm_shlib_dir> if needed.

-stdlib=libc++ is added to both the compilation and the link flags, but
the logic for adding it was only checking if it was supported during
compilation and not linking. This could lead to false positives, for
example when using clang with libstdc++ (where the compiler would
support -stdlib=libc++ but then linking would fail because of libc++
actually being unavailable).

Currently LLVM_COMPILER_IS_GCC_COMPATIBLE is set as a side-effect of determining
the stdlib to use in HandleLLVMStdlib, which causes problems when attempting to
use AddLLVM from an installed LLVM toolchain, as HandleLLVMStdlib is not used.
Move the setting of this variable into DetermineGCCCompatible and include that
from both AddLLVM and HandleLLVMStdlib.

libc++. This lets me almost self-host on Linux with libc++ and libc++abi
very simply.
Currently, MCJIT and OrcJIT are failing due to uncaught exceptions, and
the Go binding tests are failing to build due to not linking in the
correct C++ standard library.

r200744 moved this into cmake/config-ix.cmake, so that it would happen very
early in the build process. However, standalone builds of Clang and other
external projects never include this file (which is correct).
Now, -stdlib=libc++ and the LLVM_COMPILER_IS_GCC_COMPATIBLE option are
both set in a new include file, HandleLLVMStdlib, which is included by
both config-ix.cmake and HandleLLVMOptions.cmake. This preserves existing
behavior for projects relying on HandleLLVMOptions and still does the
right thing for builds of LLVM itself.
