Currently symbol names are printed in quotes if it contains something
outside of the arbitrary set of characters that isAcceptableChar tests
for. On somem targets, it is never OK to print a symbol name in quotes
so allow targets to opt out of this behavior.

Summary:
This directive is exactly the same as .asciz, except it's only used by MIPS.
It is used to store null terminated strings in object files.

Summary:
Bundle aligment requires that the functions always start at an aligned address.
Usually this is ensured by the compiler, but assembly code does not always
begin with a .align directive.
This change ensures that sections get the correct alignment if they contain
any instructions and bundling is enabled. (It also makes LLVM match the
behavior of GNU as).

We have to avoid converting a reference to a global into a reference to a local,
but it is fine to look past a local.

Similar to r235222, but for the weak symbol case.
In an "ideal" assembler/object format an expression would always refer to the
final value and A-B would only be computed from a section in the same
comdat as A and B with A and B strong.
Unfortunately that is not the case with debug info on ELF, so we need an
heuristic. Since we need an heuristic, we may as well use the same one as
gas:
* call weak_sym : produces a relocation, even if in the same section.
* A - weak_sym and weak_sym -A: don't produce a relocation if we can
compute it.
This fixes pr23272 and changes the fix of pr22815 to match what gas does.

Part of pr23272.
A small annoyance with the assembly syntax we implement is that given an
expression there is no way to know if what is desired is the value of that
expression for the symbols in this file or for the final values of those
symbols in a link.
The first case is useful for use in sections that get discarded or ignored
if the section they are describing is discarded.
For axample, consider A-B where A and B are in the same comdat section.
We can compute the value of the difference in the section that is present in
the current .o and if that section survives to the final DSO the value will
still will be correct.
But the section is in a comdat. Another section from another object file
might be used istead. We know that that section will define A and B, but
we have no idea what the value of A-B might be.
In practice we have to assume that the intention is to compute the value
in the current section since otherwise the is no way to create something like
the debug aranges section.

Linkers normally read all the relocations upfront to compute the references
between sections. Putting them together is a bit more cache friendly.
I benchmarked linking a Release+Asserts clang with gold on a vm. I tried all
4 combinations of --gc-sections/no --gc-section hot and cold cache.
I cleared the cache with
echo 3 > /proc/sys/vm/drop_caches
and warmed it up by running the link once before timing the subsequent ones.
With cold cache and --gc-sections the time goes from
1.86130781665 +- 0.01713126697463843 seconds

Now we don't have to do 2 synchronized passes to compute offsets and then
write the file.
This also includes a fix for the corner case of seeking in /dev/null. It
is not an error, but on some systems (Linux) the returned offset is
always 0. An error is signaled by returning -1. This is checked by
the existing tests now that "clang -o /dev/null ..." seeks.

Some targets (ie. Mips) have additional rules for ordering the relocation
table entries. Allow them to override generic sortRelocs(), which sorts
entries by Offset.
Then override this function for Mips, to emit HI16 and GOT16 relocations
against the local symbol in pair with the corresponding LO16 relocation.

formatted_raw_ostream is a wrapper over another stream to add column and line
number tracking.
It is used only for asm printing.
This patch moves the its creation down to where we know we are printing
assembly. This has the following advantages:
* Simpler lifetime management: std::unique_ptr
* We don't compute column and line number of object files :-)

As pr19627 points out, every use of AliasedSymbol is likely a bug.
The main use was to avoid the oddity of a variable showing up as undefined. That
was fixed in r233995, which made these calls nops.

Before when deciding if we needed a relocation in A-B, we wore only checking
if A was weak.
This fixes the asymmetry.
The "InSet" argument should probably be renamed to "ForValue", since InSet is
very MachO specific, but doing so in this patch would make it hard to read.

The case values are not a tidy enum we can fully cover. They even ovelap
over the various extension.
Just use a default:

This allows the compiler/assembly programmer to switch back to a
section. This in turn fixes the bootstrap failure on powerpc (tested
on gcc110) without changing the ppc codegen at all.
I will try to cleanup the various getELFSection overloads in a followup patch.
Just using a default argument now would lead to ambiguities.

Fixes PR19582.
Previously, when an asm assignment (.set or =) was created, we would look up
the section immediately in MCSymbol::setVariableValue. This caused symbols
to receive the wrong section if the RHS of the assignment had not been seen
yet. This had a knock-on effect in the object file emitters, causing them
to emit extra symbols, or to give symbols the wrong visibility or the wrong
section. For example, in the following asm:
.data
.Llocal:
.text
leaq .Llocal1(%rip), %rdi
.Llocal1 = .Llocal2
.Llocal2 = .Llocal
the first assignment would give .Llocal1 a null section, which would never get
fixed up by the second assignment. This would cause the ELF object file emitter
to consider .Llocal1 to be an undefined symbol and give it external linkage,
even though .Llocal1 should not have been emitted at all in the object file.
Or in the following asm:
alias_to_local = Ltmp0
Ltmp0:
the Mach-O object file emitter would give the alias_to_local symbol a n_type
of N_SECT and a n_sect of 0. This is invalid under the Mach-O specification,
which requires N_SECT symbols to receive a non-zero section number if the
symbol is defined in a section in the object file.
https://developer.apple.com/library/mac/documentation/DeveloperTools/Conceptual/MachORuntime/#//apple_ref/c/tag/nlist
After this change we do not look up the section when the assignment is created,
but instead look it up on demand and store it in Section, which is treated
as a cache if the symbol is a variable symbol.
This change also fixes a bug in MCExpr::FindAssociatedSection. Previously,
if we saw a subtraction, we would return the first referenced section, even in
cases where we should have been returning the absolute pseudo-section. Now we
always return the absolute pseudo-section for expressions that subtract two
section-derived expressions. This isn't always correct (e.g. if one of the
sections ends up being laid out at an absolute address), but it's probably
the best we can do without more context.
This allows us to remove code in two places where we appear to have been
working around this bug, in MachObjectWriter::markAbsoluteVariableSymbols
and in X86AsmPrinter::EmitStartOfAsmFile.

This lets us catch exceptions in simple cases.
N.B. Things that do not work include (but are not limited to):
- Throwing from within a catch handler.
- Catching an object with a named catch parameter.
- 'CatchHigh' is fictitious, we aren't sure of its purpose.
- We aren't entirely efficient with regards to the number of EH states
that we generate.
- IP-to-State tables are sensitive to the order of emission.

These sections are never looked up and we know when have to create them. Use
that to save adding them to the regular map and avoid a symbol->string->symbol
conversion for the group symbol.
This also makes the implementation independent of the details of how unique
sections are implemented.
