Function lto_module_create_in_local_context() would previously
rely on the default LLVMContext being created for it by
LTOModule::makeLTOModule(). This context exits the program on
error and is not arranged to update sLastStringError in
tools/lto/lto.cpp.
Function lto_module_create_in_local_context() now creates an
LLVMContext by itself, sets it up correctly to its needs and then
passes it to LTOModule::createInLocalContext() which takes
ownership of the context and keeps it present for the lifetime of
the returned LTOModule.
Function LTOModule::makeLTOModule() is modified to take a
reference to LLVMContext (instead of a pointer) and no longer
creates a default context when nullptr is passed to it. Method
LTOModule::createInContext() that takes a pointer to LLVMContext
is removed because it allows to pass a nullptr to it. Instead
LTOModule::createFromBuffer() (that takes a reference to
LLVMContext) should be used.

Summary:
This patch adds support to llvm-lto that mirrors the support added by
r249270 to the gold plugin. This enables better testing of combined
index generation for ThinLTO.
Added a new test, and this support will be used in the test in D13515.
