For now the Archive owns the buffers of the thin archive members.
This makes for a simple API, but all the buffers are destructed
only when the archive is destructed. This should be fine since we
close the files after mmap so we should not hit an open file
limit.

make_error_code(object_error) is slow because object::object_category()
uses a ManagedStatic variable. But the real problem is that the function is
called too frequently. This patch uses std::error_code() instead of
object_error::success. In most cases, we return "success", so this patch
reduces number of function calls to that function.

The 64-bit MIPS ELF archive file format is used by MIPS64 targets.
The main difference from a regular archive file is the symbol table format:
1. ar_name is equal to "/SYM64/"
2. number of symbols and offsets are 64-bit integers

The patch allows reading of such archive files by llvm-nm, llvm-objdump
and other tools. But it does not support archive files with number of symbols
and/or offsets exceed 2^32. I think it is a rather rare case requires more
significant modification of `Archive` class code.

For historical reasons archives on mach-o have two possible names for the
file containing the table of contents for the archive: "__.SYMDEF SORTED"
and "__.SYMDEF". But the libObject archive reader only supported the former.
This patch fixes llvm::object::Archive to support both names.

Owning the buffer is somewhat inflexible. Some Binaries have sub Binaries
(like Archive) and we had to create dummy buffers just to handle that. It is
also a bad fit for IRObjectFile where the Module wants to own the buffer too.
Keeping this ownership would make supporting IR inside native objects
particularly painful.
This patch focuses in lib/Object. If something elsewhere used to own an Binary,
now it also owns a MemoryBuffer.
This patch introduces a few new types.
* MemoryBufferRef. This is just a pair of StringRefs for the data and name.
This is to MemoryBuffer as StringRef is to std::string.
* OwningBinary. A combination of Binary and a MemoryBuffer. This is needed
for convenience functions that take a filename and return both the
buffer and the Binary using that buffer.
The C api now uses OwningBinary to avoid any change in semantics. I will start
a new thread to see if we want to change it and how.

createBinary documented that it destroyed the parameter in error cases,
though by observation it does not. By passing the unique_ptr by value
rather than lvalue reference, callers are now explicit about passing
ownership and the function implements the documented contract. Remove
the explicit documentation, since now the behavior cannot be anything
other than what was documented, so it's redundant.
Also drops a unique_ptr::release in llvm-nm that was always run on a
null unique_ptr anyway.

This makes the buffer ownership on error conditions very natural. The buffer
is only moved out of the argument if an object is constructed that now
owns the buffer.

This allows us to just use a std::unique_ptr to store the pointer to the buffer.
The flip side is that they have to support releasing the buffer back to the
caller.
Overall this looks like a more efficient and less brittle api.

Now that we have c++11, even things like ErrorOr<std::unique_ptr<...>> are
easy to use.

There is no std::error_code::success, so this removes much of the noise
in transitioning to std::error_code.

This will allow external callers of these functions to switch over time
rather than forcing a breaking change all a once. These particular
functions were determined by building clang/lld/lldb.

This interface allows IRObjectFile to be implemented without having dummy
methods for all section and segment related methods.
Both llvm-ar and llvm-nm are changed to use it. Unfortunately the mangler is
still not plugged in since it requires some refactoring to make a Module hold
a DataLayout.

The constructors of classes deriving from Binary normally take an error_code
as an argument to the constructor. My original intent was to change them
to have a trivial constructor and move the initial parsing logic to a static
method returning an ErrorOr. I changed my mind because:
* A constructor with an error_code out parameter is extremely convenient from
the implementation side. We can incrementally construct the object and give
up when we find an error.
* It is very efficient when constructing on the stack or when there is no
error. The only inefficient case is where heap allocating and an error is
found (we have to free the memory).
The result is that this is a much smaller patch. It just standardizes the
create* helpers to return an ErrorOr.
Almost no functionality change: The only difference is that this found that
we were trying to read past the end of COFF import library but ignoring the
error.

I did write a version returning ErrorOr<OwningPtr<Binary> >, but it is too
cumbersome to use without std::move. I will keep the patch locally and submit
when we switch to c++11.

If no other operation is specified, 's' becomes an operation instead of an
modifier. The s operation just creates a symbol table. It is the same as
running ranlib.
We assume the archive was created by a sane ar (like llvm-ar or gnu ar) and
if the symbol table is present, then it is current. We use that to optimize
the most common case: a broken build system that thinks it has to run ranlib.

This fixes two bugs is lib/Object that the use in llvm-ar found:
* In OS X created archives, the name can be padded with nulls. Strip them.
* In the constructor, remember the first non special member and use that in
begin_children. This makes sure we skip all special members, not just the
first one.
The change to llvm-ar itself consist of
* Using lib/Object for reading archives instead of ArchiveReader.cpp.
* Writing the modified archive directly, instead of creating an in memory
representation.
The old Archive library was way more general than what is needed, as can
be seen by the diffstat of this patch.
Having llvm-ar using lib/Object now opens the way for creating regular symbol
tables for both native objects and bitcode files so that we can use those
archives for LTO.

It is always computed the same way (by parsing the header). Doing it in the
constructor simplifies the callers a bit.

This a bit more efficient and avoids having a function that uses the string
table being called by a function that searches for it.
