Summary:
This change adds support for specifying a weight when merging profile data with the llvm-profdata tool.
Weights are specified by using the --weighted-input=<weight>,<filename> option. Input files not specified
with this option (normal positional list after options) are given a default weight of 1.
Adding support for arbitrary weighting of input profile data allows for relative importance to be placed on the
input data from multiple training runs.
Both sampled and instrumented profiles are supported.

This change adds support for an optional weight when merging profile data with the llvm-profdata tool.
Weights are specified by adding an option ':<weight>' suffix to the input file names.
Adding support for arbitrary weighting of input profile data allows for relative importance to be placed on the
input data from multiple training runs.
Both sampled and instrumented profiles are supported.

Consolidate the description of -binary/-text option description

The new option is similar to the SampleProfile dump option.
- dump raw/indexed format into text profile format
- merge the profile and output into text profile format.
Note that Value Profiling data text format is not yet designed.
That functionality will be added later.

These links seem broken on llvm.org/docs. Change them to use the
sphinx-recommended style to see if that helps.

Introducing llvm-profdata, a tool for merging profile data generated by
PGO instrumentation in clang.
- The name indicates a file extension of <name>.profdata. Eventually
profile data output by clang should be changed to that extension.
- llvm-profdata merges two profiles. However, the name is more general,
since it will likely pick up more tasks (such as summarizing a single
profile).
- llvm-profdata parses the current text-based format, but will be
updated once we settle on a binary format.
