Previously, the llvm-readelf documentation was essentially just a list
of differences to llvm-readobj. Since llvm-readelf is the more likely
goto tool for many people migrating to the LLVM toolchain, it seems like
it would be helpful to document all the switches in the llvm-readelf
document too. This change expands the options listed accordingly.
Additionally, they are unlikely to care what the differences are to
llvm-readobj, since they won't be familiar with the latter as there is
no GNU equivalent, so this change moves the "differences" section to
llvm-readobj's documentation.

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.

There were a number of issues with the llvm-readobj documentation. The
following points were raised in https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=42255,
and have been fixed in this patch:
1. The description section claimed "The tool and its output is
primarily designed for use in FileCheck-based tests" which is not
really the case any more.
2. The documentation used single-dash long options for option names,
but references in the help text to other options exclusively used
double-dashes. Fixed by standardising on double-dashes for all
long-form options.
3. The majority of options available and in the help text were not
present in the documentation. This patch adds them.
4. Several aliases, both long and short, were missing, e.g. --relocs.
Additionally, this patch improves the documentation by:
1. Splitting the options into categories based on the file format they
are specific to.
2. Updating the Exit Status section to correctly mention that errors
lead to a non-zero exit code.
3. Adding a See Also section referencing other similar LLVM tools.
4. Improving/correcting some of the descriptions of options that did
not quite match up with what llvm-readobj does.

Many LLVM-based tools already support response files (i.e. files
containing a list of options, specified with '@'). This change simply
updates the documentation and help text for some of these tools to
include it. I haven't attempted to fix all tools, just a selection that
I am interested in.
I've taken the opportunity to add some tests for --help behaviour, where
they were missing. We could expand these tests, but I don't think that's
within scope of this patch.

This change adds demangling support to the ELF side of llvm-readobj,
under the switch --demangle/-C.
The following places are demangled: symbol table dumps (static and
dynamic), relocation dumps (static and dynamic), addrsig dumps, call
graph profile dumps, and group section signature symbols.
Although GNU readelf doesn't support demangling, it is still a useful
feature to have, and brings it on a par with llvm-objdump's
capabilities.
This fixes https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=40054.
