Add support for having multiple sections with the same name and comdat.
Using this in combination with -ffunction-sections allows LLVM to output a .o
file with mulitple sections named .text. This saves space by avoiding long
unique names of the form .text.<C++ mangled name>.

regressions for LLDB on Linux. Rafael indicated on lldb-dev that we
should just go ahead and revert these but that he wasn't at a computer.
The patches backed out are as follows:
r228980: Add support for having multiple sections with the name and ...
r228889: Invert the section relocation map.
r228888: Use the existing SymbolTableIndex intsead of doing a lookup.
r228886: Create the Section -> Rel Section map when it is first needed.
These patches look pretty nice to me, so hoping its not too hard to get
them re-instated. =D

Any code creating an MCSectionELF knows ELF and already provides the flags.
SectionKind is an abstraction used by common code that uses a plain
MCSection.
Use the flags to compute the SectionKind. This removes a lot of
guessing and boilerplate from the MCSectionELF construction.

We currently emit an error when trying to assemble a file with more
than one section using DWARF2 debug info. This should be a warning
instead, as the resulting file will still be usable, but with a
degraded debug illusion.

Currently, when using llvm as an assembler, DWARF debug information is only
generated for the .text section. This patch modifies this so that DWARF info
is emitted for all executable sections.

GAS documents the .type directive as having an optional comma following the key
symbol name when using the STT_<TYPE_IN_UPPER_CASE> form. However, it treats
the comma as optional in all cases. This makes the IAS support both forms of
inputs. Furthermore, the prefixed forms take either the upper case name or the
lower case alias.
The tests are split into two separate sets as the hash character serves as a
comment character on x86, which is tested in the second set by using arm-elf
which uses the at symbol as a comment character.

ARM assembly syntax uses @ for a comment, execpt for the second
parameter of the .symver directive which requires @ as part of the
symbol name. This commit fixes the parsing of this directive by
adding a special case for ARM for this one argumnet.
To make the change we had to move the AllowAtInIdentifier variable
to the MCAsmLexer interface (from AsmLexer) and expose a setter for
the value. The ELFAsmParser then toggles this value when parsing
the second argument to the .symver directive for a target that
uses @ as a comment symbol

forms:
- @<type>
- %<type>
- "<type>"

Summary:
The '?' flag uses the last section group if the last had a section
group. We treat combining an explicit section group and the '?' as a
hard error.
This fixes PR17198.

Since we already have this type it's a shame to keep dragging a pair of object
and method around explicitly.

The .local, .hidden, .internal, and .protected are not legal for all supported
file formats (in particular, they're invalid for MachO). Move the parsing for
them into the ELF assembly parser since that's the format they're for.
Similarly, .weak is used by COFF and ELF, but not MachO, so move the parsing
to the COFF and ELF asm parsers. Previously, using any of these directives
on Darwin would result in an assertion failure in the parser; now we get
a diagnostic as we should.

Introduce a variable in the AsmParserExtension whether [] is valid in an
expression. If it is true, parse them like (). Enable this for ELF only.

* Only parse the flag specific arguments if we have M or G
* Parse the corresponding arguments for M and G
We ignore the G arguments and flag for now.
