MCJIT.
This patch decouples the two responsibilities of the RTDyldMemoryManager class,
memory management and symbol resolution, into two new classes:
RuntimeDyld::MemoryManager and RuntimeDyld::SymbolResolver.
The symbol resolution interface is modified slightly, from:
uint64_t getSymbolAddress(const std::string &Name);
to:
RuntimeDyld::SymbolInfo findSymbol(const std::string &Name);
The latter passes symbol flags along with symbol addresses, allowing RuntimeDyld
and others to reason about non-strong/non-exported symbols.
The memory management interface removes the following method:
void notifyObjectLoaded(ExecutionEngine *EE,
const object::ObjectFile &) {}
as it is not related to memory management. (Note: Backwards compatibility *is*
maintained for this method in MCJIT and OrcMCJITReplacement, see below).
The RTDyldMemoryManager class remains in-tree for backwards compatibility.
It inherits directly from RuntimeDyld::SymbolResolver, and indirectly from
RuntimeDyld::MemoryManager via the new MCJITMemoryManager class, which
just subclasses RuntimeDyld::MemoryManager and reintroduces the
notifyObjectLoaded method for backwards compatibility).
The EngineBuilder class retains the existing method:
EngineBuilder&
setMCJITMemoryManager(std::unique_ptr<RTDyldMemoryManager> mcjmm);
and includes two new methods:
EngineBuilder&
setMemoryManager(std::unique_ptr<MCJITMemoryManager> MM);
EngineBuilder&
setSymbolResolver(std::unique_ptr<RuntimeDyld::SymbolResolver> SR);
Clients should use EITHER:
A single call to setMCJITMemoryManager with an RTDyldMemoryManager.
OR (exclusive)
One call each to each of setMemoryManager and setSymbolResolver.
This patch should be fully compatible with existing uses of RTDyldMemoryManager.
If it is not it should be considered a bug, and the patch either fixed or
reverted.
If clients find the new API to be an improvement the goal will be to deprecate
and eventually remove the RTDyldMemoryManager class in favor of the new classes.

[Orc][MCJIT][RuntimeDyld] Add header that was accidentally left out of r231724.

[Orc][MCJIT][RuntimeDyld] Add symbol flags to symbols in RuntimeDyld. Thread the
new types through MCJIT and Orc.
In particular, add a 'weak' flag. When plumbed through RTDyldMemoryManager, this
will allow us to distinguish between weak and strong definitions and find the
right ones during symbol resolution.

This constructor is more efficient for symbols that have already been emitted,
since it avoids the construction/execution of a std::function.
Update the ObjectLinkingLayer to use this new constructor where possible.

This patch refactors a key piece of the Orc APIs: It removes the
*::getSymbolAddress and *::lookupSymbolAddressIn methods, which returned target
addresses (uint64_ts), and replaces them with *::findSymbol and *::findSymbolIn
respectively, which return instances of the new JITSymbol type. Unlike the old
methods, calling findSymbol or findSymbolIn does not cause the symbol to be
immediately materialized when found. Instead, the symbol will be materialized
if/when the getAddress method is called on the returned JITSymbol. This allows
us to query for the existence of symbols without actually materializing them. In
the future I expect more information to be attached to the JITSymbol class, for
example whether the returned symbol is a weak or strong definition. This will
allow us to properly handle weak symbols and multiple definitions.
