Summary:
This patch changes a few methods to return Error instead of manually calling error/reportError to abort. This will make it easier to extract into a library.
Note that error() takes just a string (this patch also adds an overload that takes an Error), while reportError() takes string + [error/code]. To help unify things, use FileError to associate a given filename with an error. Note that this takes some special care (for now), e.g. calling reportError(FileName, <something that could be FileError>) will duplicate the filename. The goal is to eventually remove reportError() and have every error associated with a file to be a FileError, and just one error handling block at the tool level.
This change was suggested in D56806. I took it a little further than suggested, but completely fixing llvm-objcopy will take a couple more patches. If this approach looks good, I'll commit this and apply similar patche(s) for the rest.
This change is NFC in terms of non-error related code, although the error message changes in one context.

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.

In a lot of places an empty string was passed as the ErrorBanner to
logAllUnhandledErrors. This patch makes that argument optional to
simplify the call sites.

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.

This reverts commit 4e4ee1c507e2707bb3c208e1e1b6551c3015cbf5.
This is failing due to some code that isn't built on MSVC
so I didn't catch. Not immediately obvious how to fix this
at first glance, so I'm reverting for now.

There's a lot of misuse of Twine scattered around LLVM. This
ranges in severity from benign (returning a Twine from a function
by value that is just a string literal) to pretty sketchy (storing
a Twine by value in a class). While there are some uses for
copying Twines, most of the very compelling ones are confined
to the Twine class implementation itself, and other uses are
either dubious or easily worked around.
This patch makes Twine's copy constructor private, and fixes up
all callsites.

As discussed on llvm-dev I've implemented the first basic steps towards
llvm-objcopy/llvm-objtool (name pending).
This change adds the ability to copy (without modification) 64-bit
little endian ELF executables that have SHT_PROGBITS, SHT_NOBITS,
SHT_NULL and SHT_STRTAB sections.
