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.

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.
This fixes PR22815.

The previous logic was to first try without relocations at all
and failing that stop on the first defined symbol.
That was inefficient and incorrect in the case part of the
expression could be simplified and another part could not
(see included test).
We now stop the evaluation when we get to a variable whose value
can change (i.e. is weak).

This covers essentially all of llvm's headers and libs. One or two weird
cases I wasn't sure were worth/appropriate to fix.

The fixes are to note that AArch64 has additional restrictions on when local
relocations can be used. In particular, ld64 requires that relocations to
cstring/cfstrings use linker visible symbols.
Original message:
In an assembly expression like
bar:
.long L0 + 1
the intended semantics is that bar will contain a pointer one byte past L0.
In sections that are merged by content (strings, 4 byte constants, etc), a
single position in the section doesn't give the linker enough information.
For example, it would not be able to tell a relocation must point to the
end of a string, since that would look just like the start of the next.
The solution used in ELF to use relocation with symbols if there is a non-zero
addend.
In MachO before this patch we would just keep all symbols in some sections.
This would miss some cases (only cstrings on x86_64 were implemented) and was
inefficient since most relocations have an addend of 0 and can be represented
without the symbol.
This patch implements the non-zero addend logic for MachO too.

One is that AArch64 has additional restrictions on when local relocations can
be used. We have to take those into consideration when deciding to put a L
symbol in the symbol table or not.
The other is that ld64 requires the relocations to cstring to use linker
visible symbols on AArch64.
Thanks to Michael Zolotukhin for testing this!

I started trying to fix a small issue, but this code has seen a small fix too
many.
The old code was fairly convoluted. Some of the issues it had:
* It failed to check if a symbol difference was in the some section when
converting a relocation to pcrel.
* It failed to check if the relocation was already pcrel.
* The pcrel value computation was wrong in some cases (relocation-pc.s)
* It was missing quiet a few cases where it should not convert symbol
relocations to section relocations, leaving the backends to patch it up.
* It would not propagate the fact that it had changed a relocation to pcrel,
requiring a quiet nasty work around in ARM.
* It was missing comments.

I have some uncommitted changes to the cast code that catch this sort of thing
at compile-time but I still need to do some other cleanup before I can enable
it.

This patch adds support for AArch64 (ARM's 64-bit architecture) to
LLVM in the "experimental" category. Currently, it won't be built
unless requested explicitly.
This initial commit should have support for:
+ Assembly of all scalar (i.e. non-NEON, non-Crypto) instructions
(except the late addition CRC instructions).
+ CodeGen features required for C++03 and C99.
+ Compilation for the "small" memory model: code+static data <
4GB.
+ Absolute and position-independent code.
+ GNU-style (i.e. "__thread") TLS.
+ Debugging information.
The principal omission, currently, is performance tuning.
This patch excludes the NEON support also reviewed due to an outbreak of
batshit insanity in our legal department. That will be committed soon bringing
the changes to precisely what has been approved.
Further reviews would be gratefully received.

SmallString. This makes it possible to use the length-erased SmallVectorImpl
in the interface without imposing buffer size. Thus, the size of MCInstFragment
is back down since a preallocated 8-byte contents buffer is enough.
It would be generally a good idea to rid all the fragments of SmallString as
contents, because a vector just makes more sense.

AKA: Recompile *ALL* the source code!
This one went much better. No manual edits here. I spot-checked for
silliness and grep-checked for really broken edits and everything seemed
good. It all still compiles. Yell if you see something that looks goofy.

actuall addresses in a .o file, so it is better to let the MachO writer compute
it.
This is good for two reasons. First, areas that shouldn't care about
addresses now don't have access to it. Second, the layout of each section
is independent. I should use this in a subsequent commit to speed it up.
Most of the patch is just removing the section address computation. The two
interesting parts are the change on how we handle padding in the end
of sections and how MachO can get the address of a-b when a and b are in
different sections.
Since now the expression evaluation normally doesn't know the section address,
it will think that a-b needs relocation and let the MachO writer know. Once
it has computed the section addresses, it calls back the expression evaluation
with the section addresses to resolve these expressions.
The remaining problem is the handling of padding. Currently it will create
a special alignment fragment at the end. Since that fragment doesn't update
the alignment of the section, it needs the real address to be computed.
Since now the layout will not compute a-b with a and b in different sections,
the only effect that the special alignment fragment has is update the
address size of the section. This can also be done by the MachO writer.

they should be in the symbol table or not. Instead of "guessing", just compute
the symbol table after the relocations are known.

resolved or not. Different object files have different restrictions and
different native assemblers have different idiosyncrasies we want to emulate
for now.
Move the existing MachO logic to the new place and implement an ELF one that
gets fixups to globals right.

If the size of the string is greater than the zero fill size, the function will attempt to write a very large string of zeros to the object file (~4GB on 32 bit platforms). This assertion will catch the scenario and crash the program before the write occurs.
