Some of the wording in the doc (taken largely from the help text), was a
little imprecise in some cases, so this patch makes it a little more
precise.

The --show-children option description describes what it does, and
references the =<offset> parameter of section dump switches. I don't
think it needs to be explained again in the documentation of the
section dump switches too.

Sphinx allows for definitions of command-line options using
`.. option <name>` and references to those options via `:option:<name>`.
However, it looks like there is no scoping of these options by default,
meaning that links can end up pointing to incorrect documents. See for
example the llvm-mca document, which contains references to -o that,
prior to this patch, pointed to a different document. What's worse is
that these links appear to be non-deterministic in which one is picked
(on my machine, some references end up pointing to opt, whereas on the
live docs, they point to llvm-dwarfdump, for example).
The fix is to add the .. program <name> tag. This essentially namespaces
the options (definitions and references) to the named program, ensuring
that the links are kept correct.

The docs and help text for --show-parents and --show-children were a bit
inconsistent. The help text claimed they had an effect when "=<offset>"
was used, whereas the doc said it had an effect when "--find" or
"--name" were used. This change changes the doc to mention "=<offset>"
and removes this reference from the help text, to avoid having a very
long description in the help text (it still says "when selectively
printing entries").

There was a typo in the --ignore-case help text that was copied into the
llvm-dwarfdump command-guide. Additionally, this patch simplifies the
wording, since it was unnecessarily verbose: the switch applies for
searching in general and doesn't need explicitly stating different
search modes (which might go out-of-date as options are added or
removed).

-o is in the documentation, but not in the llvm-dwarfdump help text.
This patch adds it by inverting the -o and --out-file aliasing. It also
removes --out-file from the documentation, since we don't really want
people to be using this switch in practice.

At the last LLVM dev meeting we had a debug info for optimized code
BoF session. In that session I presented some graphs that showed how
the quality of the debug info produced by LLVM changed over the last
couple of years. This is a cleaned up version of the patch I used to
collect the this data. It is implemented as an extension of
llvm-dwarfdump, adding a new --statistics option. The intended
use-case is to automatically run this on the debug info produced by,
e.g., our bots, to identify eyebrow-raising changes or regressions
introduced by new transformations that we could act on.
In the current form, two kinds of data are being collected:
- The number of variables that have a debug location versus the number
of variables in total (this takes into account inlined instances of
the same function, so if a variable is completely missing form only
one instance it will be found).
- The PC range covered by variable location descriptions versus the PC
range of all variables' containing lexical scopes.
The output format is versioned and extensible, so I'm looking forward
to both bug fixes and ideas for other data that would be interesting
to track.
