(This is a re-do of #138972, which had a minor warning in `Clang.cpp`.)

This PR adds some of the support needed for Windows hot-patching.

Windows implements a form of hot-patching. This allows patches to be
applied to Windows apps, drivers, and the kernel, without rebooting or
restarting any of these components. Hot-patching is a complex technology
and requires coordination between the OS, compilers, linkers, and
additional tools.

This PR adds support to Clang and LLVM for part of the hot-patching
process. It enables LLVM to generate the required code changes and to
generate CodeView symbols which identify hot-patched functions. The PR
provides new command-line arguments to Clang which allow developers to
identify the list of functions that need to be hot-patched. This PR also
allows LLVM to directly receive the list of functions to be modified, so
that language front-ends which have not yet been modified (such as Rust)
can still make use of hot-patching.

This PR:

* Adds a `MarkedForWindowsHotPatching` LLVM function attribute. This
attribute indicates that a function should be _hot-patched_. This
generates a new CodeView symbol, `S_HOTPATCHFUNC`, which identifies any
function that has been hot-patched. This attribute also causes accesses
to global variables to be indirected through a `_ref_*` global variable.
This allows hot-patched functions to access the correct version of a
global variable; the hot-patched code needs to access the variable in
the _original_ image, not the patch image.
* Adds a `AllowDirectAccessInHotPatchFunction` LLVM attribute. This
attribute may be placed on global variable declarations. It indicates
that the variable may be safely accessed without the `_ref_*`
indirection.
* Adds two Clang command-line parameters: `-fms-hotpatch-functions-file`
and `-fms-hotpatch-functions-list`. The `-file` flag may point to a text
file, which contains a list of functions to be hot-patched (one function
name per line). The `-list` flag simply directly identifies functions to
be patched, using a comma-separated list. These two command-line
parameters may also be combined; the final set of functions to be
hot-patched is the union of the two sets.
* Adds similar LLVM command-line parameters:
`--ms-hotpatch-functions-file` and `--ms-hotpatch-functions-list`.
* Adds integration tests for both LLVM and Clang.
* Adds support for dumping the new `S_HOTPATCHFUNC` CodeView symbol.

Although the flags are redundant between Clang and LLVM, this allows
additional languages (such as Rust) to take advantage of hot-patching
support before they have been modified to generate the required
attributes.

<title>[clang][DebugInfo] Add symbol for debugger with VTable information. (#130255)</title>

The IR now includes a global variable for the debugger that holds
the address of the vtable.

Now every class that contains virtual functions, has a static
member (marked as artificial) that identifies where that vtable
is loaded in memory. The unmangled name is '_vtable$'.

This new symbol will allow a debugger to easily associate
classes with the physical location of their VTables using
only the DWARF information. Previously, this had to be done
by searching for ELF symbols with matching names; something
that was time-consuming and error-prone in certain edge cases.</content>

<title>[SYCL] Basic code generation for SYCL kernel caller offload entry point functions. (#133030)</title>

<content type='text'>
A function declared with the `sycl_kernel_entry_point` attribute,
sometimes called a SYCL kernel entry point function, specifies a pattern
from which the parameters and body of an offload entry point function,
sometimes called a SYCL kernel caller function, are derived.

SYCL kernel caller functions are emitted during SYCL device compilation.
Their parameters and body are derived from the `SYCLKernelCallStmt`
statement and `OutlinedFunctionDecl` declaration associated with their
corresponding SYCL kernel entry point function. A distinct SYCL kernel
caller function is generated for each SYCL kernel entry point function
defined as a non-inline function or ODR-used in the translation unit.

The name of each SYCL kernel caller function is parameterized by the
SYCL kernel name type specified by the `sycl_kernel_entry_point`
attribute attached to the corresponding SYCL kernel entry point
function. For the moment, the Itanium ABI mangled name for typeinfo data
(`_ZTS&lt;type&gt;`) is used to name these functions; a future change will
switch to a more appropriate naming scheme.

The calling convention used for a SYCL kernel caller function is target
dependent. Support for AMDGCN, NVPTX, and SPIR targets is currently
provided. These functions are required to observe the language
restrictions for SYCL devices as specified by the SYCL 2020
specification; this includes a forward progress guarantee and prohibits
recursion.

Only SYCL kernel caller functions, functions declared as
`SYCL_EXTERNAL`, and functions directly or indirectly referenced from
those functions should be emitted during device compilation. Pruning of
other declarations has not yet been implemented.

Whereas it is UB in terms of the standard to delete an array of objects
via pointer whose static type doesn't match its dynamic type, MSVC
supports an extension allowing to do it.
Aside from array deletion not working correctly in the mentioned case,
currently not having this extension implemented causes clang to generate
code that is not compatible with the code generated by MSVC, because
clang always puts scalar deleting destructor to the vftable. This PR
aims to resolve these problems.

It was reverted due to link time errors in chromium with sanitizer
coverage enabled,
which is fixed by https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/131929 .

The second commit of this PR also contains a fix for a runtime failure
in chromium reported
