Instruction bundling is only supported on descendants of the
MCEncodedFragment type. By moving the bundling functionality and
MCSubtargetInfo to this class it makes it easier to set and extract the
MCSubtargetInfo when it is necessary.
This is a refactoring change that will make it easier to pass the
MCSubtargetInfo through to writeNops when nop padding is required.

On targets like Arm some relaxations may only be performed when certain
architectural features are available. As functions can be compiled with
differing levels of architectural support we must make a judgement on
whether we can relax based on the MCSubtargetInfo for the function. This
change passes through the MCSubtargetInfo for the function to
fixupNeedsRelaxation so that the decision on whether to relax can be made
per function. In this patch, only the ARM backend makes use of this
information. We must also pass the MCSubtargetInfo to applyFixup because
some fixups skip error checking on the assumption that relaxation has
occurred, to prevent code-generation errors applyFixup must see the same
MCSubtargetInfo as fixupNeedsRelaxation.

For RISC-V it is desirable to have relaxation happen in the linker once
addresses are known, and as such the size between two instructions/byte
sequences in a section could change.
For most assembler expressions, this is fine, as the absolute address results
in the expression being converted to a fixup, and finally relocations.
However, for expressions such as .quad .L2-.L1, the assembler folds this down
to a constant once fragments are laid out, under the assumption that the
difference can no longer change, although in the case of linker relaxation the
differences can change at link time, so the constant is incorrect. One place
where this commonly appears is in debug information, where the size of a
function expression is in a form similar to the above.
This patch extends the assembler to allow an AsmBackend to declare that it
does not want the assembler to fold down this expression, and instead generate
a pair of relocations that allow the linker to carry out the calculation. In
this case, the expression is not folded, but when it comes to emitting a
fixup, the generic FK_Data_* fixups are converted into a pair, one for the
addition half, one for the subtraction, and this is passed to the relocation
generating methods as usual. I have named these FK_Data_Add_* and
FK_Data_Sub_* to indicate which half these are for.
For RISC-V, which supports this via e.g. the R_RISCV_ADD64, R_RISCV_SUB64 pair
of relocations, these are also set to always emit relocations relative to
local symbols rather than section offsets. This is to deal with the fact that
if relocations were calculated on e.g. .text+8 and .text+4, the result 12
would be stored rather than 4 as both addends are added in the linker.

For RISCV branch instructions, we need to preserve relocation types when linker
relaxation enabled, so then linker could modify offset when the branch offsets
changed.
We preserve relocation types by define shouldForceRelocation.
IsResolved return by evaluateFixup will always false when shouldForceRelocation
return true. It will make RISCV MC Branch Relaxation always relax 16-bit
branches to 32-bit form, even if the symbol actually could be resolved.
To avoid 16-bit branches always relax to 32-bit form when linker relaxation
enabled, we add a new parameter WasForced to indicate that the symbol actually
couldn't be resolved and not forced by shouldForceRelocation return true.
RISCVAsmBackend::fixupNeedsRelaxationAdvanced could relax branches with
unresolved symbols by (!IsResolved && !WasForced).
RISCV MC Branch Relaxation is needed because RISCV could perform 32-bit
to 16-bit transformation in MC layer.

I did this a long time ago with a janky python script, but now
clang-format has built-in support for this. I fed clang-format every
line with a #include and let it re-sort things according to the precise
LLVM rules for include ordering baked into clang-format these days.
I've reverted a number of files where the results of sorting includes
isn't healthy. Either places where we have legacy code relying on
particular include ordering (where possible, I'll fix these separately)
or where we have particular formatting around #include lines that
I didn't want to disturb in this patch.
This patch is *entirely* mechanical. If you get merge conflicts or
anything, just ignore the changes in this patch and run clang-format
over your #include lines in the files.
Sorry for any noise here, but it is important to keep these things
stable. I was seeing an increasing number of patches with irrelevant
re-ordering of #include lines because clang-format was used. This patch
at least isolates that churn, makes it easy to skip when resolving
conflicts, and gets us to a clean baseline (again).

A number of backends (AArch64, MIPS, ARM) have been using
MCContext::reportError to report issues such as out-of-range fixup values in
their TgtAsmBackend. This is great, but because MCContext couldn't easily be
threaded through to the adjustFixupValue helper function from its usual
callsite (applyFixup), these backends ended up adding an MCContext* argument
and adding another call to applyFixup to processFixupValue. Adding an
MCContext parameter to applyFixup makes this unnecessary, and even better -
applyFixup can take a reference to MCContext rather than a potentially null
pointer.

@ABS8 can be applied to symbols which appear as immediate operands to
instructions that have a 8-bit immediate form for that operand. It causes
the assembler to use the 8-bit form and an 8-bit relocation (e.g. R_386_8
or R_X86_64_8) for the symbol.

Currently, the error messages we emit for the .org directive when the
expression is not absolute or is out of range do not include the line
number of the directive, so it can be hard to track down the problem if
a file contains many .org directives.
This patch stores the source location in the MCOrgFragment, so that it
can be used for diagnostics emitted during layout.
Since layout is an iterative process, and the errors are detected during
each iteration, it would have been possible for errors to be reported
multiple times. To prevent this, I've made the assembler bail out after
each iteration if any errors have been reported. This will still allow
multiple unrelated errors to be reported in the common case where they
are all detected in the first round of layout.

CodeView, like most other debug formats, represents the live range of a
variable so that debuggers might print them out.
They use a variety of records to represent how a particular variable
might be available (in a register, in a frame pointer, etc.) along with
a set of ranges where this debug information is relevant.
However, the format only allows us to use ranges which are limited to a
maximum of 0xF000 in size. This means that we need to split our debug
information into chunks of 0xF000.
Because the layout of code is not known until *very* late, we must use a
new fragment to record the information we need until we can know
*exactly* what the range is.

header to its own header, allowing users of fragments to have a narrower
header file, and avoid circular header dependencies when getting the
definition of MCSection prior to inspecting traits on MCSection
pointers.
This is part of a series of patches to allow LLVM to check for complete
pointee types when computing its pointer traits. This is absolutely
necessary to get correct (or reproducible) results for things like how
many low bits are guaranteed to be zero.
Note that this doesn't in any way change the design of MC, it is just
moving code around to allow the *header files* to be more fine grained.
Without this, it is impossible to get a complete type for MCSection
where it is needed.
If anyone would prefer a different slicing of the header files, I'm
happy to oblige of course. =]

Today, we always take into account the possibility that object files
produced by MC may be consumed by an incremental linker. This results
in us initialing fields which vary with time (TimeDateStamp) which harms
hermetic builds (e.g. verifying a self-host went well) and produces
sub-optimal code because we cannot assume anything about the relative
position of functions within a section (call sites can get redirected
through incremental linker thunks).
Let's provide an MCTargetOption which controls this behavior so that we
can disable this functionality if we know a-priori that the build will
not rely on /incremental.

Currently, if the assembler encounters an error after parsing (such as an
out-of-range fixup), it reports this as a fatal error, and so stops after the
first error. However, for most of these there is an obvious way to recover
after emitting the error, such as emitting the fixup with a value of zero. This
means that we can report on all of the errors in a file, not just the first
one. MCContext::reportError records the fact that an error was encountered, so
we won't actually emit an object file with the incorrect contents.

Stop using `getNextNode()` to get an iterator to a fragment (at least,
in this one place). Instead, use iterator logic directly.
The `getNextNode()` interface isn't actually supposed to work for
creating iterators; it's supposed to return `nullptr` (not a real
iterator) if this is the last node. It's currently broken and will
"happen" to work, but if we ever fix the function, we'll get some
strange failures in places like this.

This extends the work done in r233995 so that now getFragment (in addition to
getSection) also works for variable symbols.
With that the existing logic to decide if a-b can be computed works even if
a or b are variables. Given that, the expression evaluation can avoid expanding
variables as aggressively and that in turn lets the relocation code see the
original variable.
In order for this to work with the asm streamer, there is now a dummy fragment
per section. It is used to assign a section to a symbol when no other fragment
exists.

Split a MCAssembler::layout() method out of MCAssembler::finish(). This allows
