Summary:
Now CVType and CVSymbol are effectively type-safe wrappers around
ArrayRef<uint8_t>. Make the kind() accessor load it from the
RecordPrefix, which is the same for types and symbols.

to reflect the new license.
We understand that people may be surprised that we're moving the header
entirely to discuss the new license. We checked this carefully with the
Foundation's lawyer and we believe this is the correct approach.
Essentially, all code in the project is now made available by the LLVM
project under our new license, so you will see that the license headers
include that license only. Some of our contributors have contributed
code under our old license, and accordingly, we have retained a copy of
our old license notice in the top-level files in each project and
repository.

VarStreamArray was built on the assumption that it is backed by a
StreamRef, and offset 0 of that StreamRef is the first byte of the first
record in the array.
This is a logical and intuitive assumption, but unfortunately we have
use cases where it doesn't hold. Specifically, a PDB module's symbol
stream is prefixed by 4 bytes containing a magic value, and the first
byte of record data in the array is actually at offset 4 of this byte
sequence.
Previously, we would just truncate the first 4 bytes and then construct
the VarStreamArray with the resulting StreamRef, so that offset 0 of the
underlying stream did correspond to the first byte of the first record,
but this is problematic, because symbol records reference other symbol
records by the absolute offset including that initial magic 4 bytes. So
if another record wants to refer to the first record in the array, it
would say "the record at offset 4".
This led to extremely confusing hacks and semantics in loading code, and
after spending 30 minutes trying to get some math right and failing, I
decided to fix this in the underlying implementation of VarStreamArray.
Now, we can say that a stream is skewed by a particular amount. This
way, when we access a record by absolute offset, we can use the same
values that the records themselves contain, instead of having to do
fixups.

Type records have a unique type index, but symbol records do
not. Instead, symbol records refer to other symbol records
by referencing their offset in the symbol stream. In a sense
this is the analogue of the TypeIndex, but we are not printing
it in the dumper. Printing it not only gives us more useful
information when manually investigating the contents of a PDB,
but also allows us to write better tests by enabling us to
verify that fields that reference other symbol records do
so correctly.

This is the beginning of an effort to move the codeview yaml
reader / writer into ObjectYAML so that it can be shared.
Currently the only consumer / producer of CodeView YAML is
llvm-pdbdump, but CodeView can exist outside of PDB files, and
indeed is put into object files and passed to the linker to
produce PDB files. Furthermore, there are subtle differences
in the types of records that show up in object file CodeView
vs PDB file CodeView, but they are otherwise 99% the same.
By having this code in ObjectYAML, we can have llvm-pdbdump
reuse this code, while teaching obj2yaml and yaml2obj to use
this syntax for dealing with object files that can contain
CodeView.
This patch only adds support for CodeView type information
to ObjectYAML. Subsequent patches will add support for
CodeView symbol information.

After several smaller patches to get most of the core improvements
finished up, this patch is a straight move and header fixup of
the source.

This is part of a larger effort to get the Stream code moved
up to Support. I don't want to do it in one large patch, in
part because the changes are so big that it will treat everything
as file deletions and add, losing history in the process.
Aside from that though, it's just a good idea in general to
make small changes.
So this change only changes the names of the Stream related
source files, and applies necessary source fix ups.

Type visitor code had already been refactored previously to
decouple the visitor and the visitor callback interface. This
was necessary for having the flexibility to visit in different
ways (for example, dumping to yaml, reading from yaml, dumping
to ScopedPrinter, etc).
This patch merely implements the same visitation pattern for
symbol records that has already been implemented for type records.
