Summary:
Add support for --rename-section flags from gnu objcopy.
Not all flags appear to have an effect for ELF objects, but allowing them would allow easier drop-in replacement. Other unrecognized flags are rejected.
This was only tested by comparing flags printed by "readelf -e <.o>" against the output of gnu vs llvm objcopy, it hasn't been tested to be valid beyond that.

Summary:
See binutils-gdb/bfd/elf.c, GNU objcopy also strips .stab* (STABS)
.line* (DWARF 1) .gnu.linkonce.wi.* (linkonce section for .debug_info) but
I'm not sure we need to be compatible with it.

Summary:
Add basic support for --rename-section=old=new to llvm-objcopy.
A full replacement for GNU objcopy requires also modifying flags (i.e. --rename-section=old=new,flag1,flag2); I'd like to keep that in a separate change to keep this simple.

Anywhere in tools/llvm-objcopy where functions or classes are not referenced

or put inside an anonymous namespace.

Summary:
This option appears to have been dropped as part of the refactoring in
r331663. Unfortunately, if we want to use llvm-strip as a drop-in
replacement for strip, this option should still be available.

This is a small follow-up to the revisions r333117 and r331663.
1. Avoid the name conflicts of the generated variables for prefixes.
2. Apply clang-format -i -style=llvm to llvm-objcopy.cpp once again.
3. Add a test for the flag with double dash.

This option just keeps being a problem and really needs to be implemented
in some fashion. Implementing it properly requires some kind of
"replaceSectionReference" method because all the existing links need to be
maintained. The desired behavior is just for allocated sections to become
NOBITS but actually implementing that is rather tricky due to the current
design of llvm-objcopy. However converting allocated sections to NOBITS is
just an optimization and not something debuggers need. Debuggers can debug
a stripped executable and take an unstripped executable for that stripped
executable as input. Additionally allocated sections account for a very
small part of debug binaries so this optimization is quite small. I propose
that for the time being we implement this as a NOP so that people can use
llvm-objcopy where they need to, just in a sub-optimal way.
This option has already blocked a lot of people and its currently blocking me.

If the output file is not specified make the modifications in-place
(like binutils objcopy does). In particular, this fixes
the behavior of Clang -gsplit-dwarf (if Clang is configured to use llvm-objcopy),
previously it was creating .dwo files, but still leaving *dwo* sections in
the original binary.

While writing code for input and output formats in llvm-objcopy it became
apparent that there was a code health problem. This change attempts to solve
that problem by refactoring the code to use Reader and Writer objects that can
read in different objects in different formats, convert them to a single shared
internal representation, and then write them to any other representation.
New classes:
Reader: the base class used to construct instances of the internal
representation
Writer: the base class used to write out instances of the internal
representation
ELFBuilder: a helper class for ELFWriter that takes an ELFFile and converts it
to a Object
SectionVisitor: it became necessary to remove writeSection from SectionBase
because, under the new Reader/Writer scheme, it's possible to convert between
ELF Types such as ELF32LE and ELF32BE. This isn't possible with writeSection
because it (dynamically) depends on the underlying section type *and*
(statically) depends on the ELF type. Bad things would happen if the underlying
sections for ELF32LE were used for writing to ELF64BE. To avoid this code smell
(which would have compiled, run, and output some nonsesnse) I decoupled writing
of sections from a class.
SectionWriter: This is just the ELFT templated implementation of
SectionVisitor. Many classes now have this class as a friend so that the
writing methods in this class can write out private data.
ELFWriter: This is the Writer that outputs to ELF
BinaryWriter: This is the Writer that outputs to Binary
ElfType: Because the ELF Type is not a part of the Object anymore we need a way
to construct the correct default Writer based on properties of the Reader. This
enum just keeps track of the ELF type of the input so it can be used as the
default output type as well.
Object has correspondingly undergone some serious changes as well. It now has
more generic methods for building and manipulating ELF binaries. This interface
makes ELFBuilder easy enough to use and will make the BinaryReader/Builder easy
to create as well. Most changes in this diff are cosmetic and deal with the
fact that a method has been moved from one class to another or a change from a
pointer to a reference. Almost no changes should result in a functional
difference (this is after all a refactor). One minor functional change was made
and the result can be seen in remove-shstrtab-error.test. The fact that it
fails hasn't changed but the error message has changed because that failure is
detected at a later point in the code now (because WriteSectionHeaders is a
property of the ElfWriter *not* a property of the Object). I'd say roughly
80-90% of this code is cosmetically different, 10-19% is different but
functionally the same, and 1-5% is functionally different despite not causing a
change in tests.
