Instead of requiring every non-COFF MCObjectStreamer to implement the
COFF hooks just to do an llvm_unreachable to say that they're not
supported, do the llvm_unreachable in the default implementation, as
suggested by rnk in https://reviews.llvm.org/D26722.

This makes sure we get the same redefinition rules regardless of who
is printing (asm parser, codegen) and to what (asm, obj).
This fixes an unintentional regression in r293936.

On ELF every section can have a corresponding section symbol. When in
an assembly file we have
.quad .text
the '.text' refers to that symbol.
The way we used to handle them is to leave .text an undefined symbol
until the very end when the object writer would map them to the
actual section symbol.
The problem with that is that anything before the end would see an
undefined symbol. This could result in bad diagnostics
(test/MC/AArch64/label-arithmetic-diags-elf.s), or incorrect results
when using the asm streamer (est/MC/Mips/expansion-jal-sym-pic.s).
Fixing this will also allow using the section symbol earlier for
setting sh_link of SHF_METADATA sections.
This patch includes a few hacks to avoid changing our behaviour when
handling conflicts between section symbols and other symbols. I
reported pr31850 to track that.

Move the cast<MCSymbolELF> inside emitELFSize, so that:
- it's done in one place instead of at each call
- it's more consistent with similar functions like EmitCOFFSafeSEH
- ambiguity between cast<> and dyn_cast<> is avoided (which also
eliminates an unnecessary dyn_cast call)
This also makes it easier to experiment with using ".size" directives on
non-ELF targets.

Summary:
This is much closer to the way MIPS relocation expressions work
(%hi(foo + 2) rather than %hi(foo) + 2) and removes the need for the
various bodges in MipsAsmParser::evaluateRelocExpr().
Removing those bodges ensures that the constant stored in MCValue is the
full 32 or 64-bit (depending on ABI) offset from the symbol. This will be used
to correct the %hi/%lo matching needed to sort the relocation table correctly.
As part of this:
* Gave MCExpr::print() the ability to omit parenthesis when emitting a
symbol reference inside a MipsMCExpr operator like %hi(X). Without this
we print things like %lo(($L1)).
* %hi(%neg(%gprel(X))) is now three MipsMCExpr's instead of one. Most of
the related special cases have been removed or moved to MipsMCExpr. We
can remove the rest as we gain support for the less common relocations
when they are not part of this specific combination.
* Renamed MipsMCExpr::VariantKind and the enum prefix ('VK_') to avoid confusion
with MCSymbolRefExpr::VariantKind and its prefix (also 'VK_').
* fixup_Mips_GOT_Local and fixup_Mips_GOT_Global were found to be identical
and merged into fixup_Mips_GOT.
* MO_GOT16 and MO_GOT turned out to be identical and have been merged into
MO_GOT.
* VK_Mips_GOT and VK_Mips_GOT16 turned out to be the same thing so they
have been merged into MEK_GOT

This patch adds support for the MachO .alt_entry assembly directive, and uses
it for global aliases with non-zero GEP offsets. The alt_entry flag indicates
that a symbol should be layed out immediately after the preceding symbol.
Conceptually it introduces an alternate entry point for a function or data
structure. E.g.:
safe_foo:
// check preconditions for foo
.alt_entry fast_foo
fast_foo:
// body of foo, can assume preconditions.
The .alt_entry flag is also implicitly set on assembly aliases of the form:
a = b + C
where C is a non-zero constant, since these have the same effect as an
alt_entry symbol: they introduce a label that cannot be moved relative to the
preceding one. Setting the alt_entry flag on aliases of this form fixes
http://llvm.org/PR25381.

We now create them as they are found and use higher level APIs.
This is a step in avoiding creating unnecessary sections.

This extends the work done in r233995 so that now getFragment (in addition to
getSection) also works for variable symbols.
With that the existing logic to decide if a-b can be computed works even if
a or b are variables. Given that, the expression evaluation can avoid expanding
variables as aggressively and that in turn lets the relocation code see the
original variable.
In order for this to work with the asm streamer, there is now a dummy fragment
per section. It is used to assign a section to a symbol when no other fragment
exists.
This patch is a joint work by Maxim Ostapenko andy myself.

After r244870 flush() will only compare two null pointers and return,
doing nothing but wasting run time. The call is not required any more
as the stream and its SmallString are always in sync.

MCFragment didn't really need vtables. The majority of virtual methods were just getters and setters.
This removes the vtables and uses dispatch on the kind to do things like delete which needs to
get the appropriate class.
This reduces memory on the verify use list order test case by about 2MB out of 800MB.

Now that we have a dedicated type for ELF symbol, these helper functions can
become member function of MCSymbolELF.

This create a MCSymbolELF class and moves SymbolSize since only ELF
needs a size expression.
This reduces the size of MCSymbol from 56 to 48 bytes.

Both MCStreamer and MCObjectStreamer were maintaining a current section
variable and they were slightly out of sync. I don't think this was observable,
but was inefficient and error prone.
Changing this requires a few cascading changes:
* SwitchSection has to call ChangeSection earlier for ChangeSection to see
the old section.
* With that change, ChangeSection cannot call EmitLabel, since during
ChangeSection we are still in the old section.
* When the object streamer requires a begin label, just reused the existing
generic support for begin labels instead of calling EmitLabel directly.
