If we're not touching them, we don't need to do anything special to pass
them along -- with one important caveat: due to how cmake arguments
work, the implicitly passed arguments need to be specified before
arguments that we handle.

This isn't particularly nice, but the alternative is enumerating all
arguments that can be used by llvm_add_library and the macros it calls
(it also relies on implicit passing of some arguments to
llvm_process_sources).</content>

Note that llvm::support::endianness has been renamed to
llvm::endianness while becoming an enum class as opposed to an enum.
This patch replaces llvm::support::{big,little,native} with
llvm::endianness::{big,little,native}.

There are two age fields in a PDB file. One from the PDB Stream and another one
from the DBI stream.

According to https://randomascii.wordpress.com/2011/11/11/source-indexing-is-underused-awesomeness/#comment-34328,
The age in DBI stream is used to against the binary's age. `Pdbstr.exe` is used
to only increment the age from PDB stream without changing the DBI age. I
also verified this by manually changing the DBI age of a PDB file and let
`windbg.exe` to load it. It shows the following logs before and after changing:

Before:

So, `windbg.exe` uses the DBI age to detect mismatched pdb, but it still loads
the pdb even if the age mismatched. Probably lldb should do the same and give
some warnings.

This fixes a bug that lldb can't load some windows system pdbs due to mismatched
uuid.

<title>Change the meaning of a UUID with all zeros for data.</title>

Previously, depending on how you constructed a UUID from data or a
StringRef, an input value of all zeros was valid (e.g. setFromData)
or not (e.g. setFromOptionalData).  Since there was no way to tell
which interpretation to use, it was done somewhat inconsistently.
This standardizes the meaning of a UUID of all zeros to Not Valid,
and removes all the Optional methods and their uses, as well as the
static factories that supported them.

<title>[lldb] Stop passing both i386 and i686 in parallel as architectures on Windows</title>

When an object file returns multiple architectures, it is treated
as a fat binary - which really isn't the case of i386 vs i686 where
the object file actually has one architecture.

This allows getting rid of hardcoded architecture triples in
PlatformWindows.

The parallel i386 and i686 architecture strings stem from
5e6f45201f0b62c1e7a24fc396f3ea6e10dc880d / D7120 and
ad587ae4ca143d388c0ec4ef2faa1b5eddedbf67 / D4658.

The current design allows that the object file contents could be mapped
by one object file plugin and then used by another. Presumably the idea
here was to avoid mapping the same file twice.

This becomes an issue when one object file plugin wants to map the file
differently from the others. For example, ObjectFileELF needs to map its
memory as writable while others likeObjectFileMachO needs it to be
mapped read-only.

This patch prevents plugins from changing the buffer by passing them is
by value rather than by reference.

<content type='text'>
Symbol table parsing has evolved over the years and many plug-ins contained duplicate code in the ObjectFile::GetSymtab() that used to be pure virtual. With this change, the "Symbtab *ObjectFile::GetSymtab()" is no longer virtual and will end up calling a new "void ObjectFile::ParseSymtab(Symtab &amp;symtab)" pure virtual function to actually do the parsing. This helps centralize the code for parsing the symbol table and allows the ObjectFile base class to do all of the common work, like taking the necessary locks and creating the symbol table object itself. Plug-ins now just need to parse when they are asked to parse as the ParseSymtab function will only get called once.

This is a retry of the original patch https://reviews.llvm.org/D113965 which was reverted. There was a deadlock in the Manual DWARF indexing code during symbol preloading where the module was asked on the main thread to preload its symbols, and this would in turn cause the DWARF manual indexing to use a thread pool to index all of the compile units, and if there were relocations on the debug information sections, these threads could ask the ObjectFile to load section contents, which could cause a call to ObjectFileELF::RelocateSection() which would ask for the symbol table from the module and it would deadlock. We can't lock the module in ObjectFile::GetSymtab(), so the solution I am using is to use a llvm::once_flag to create the symbol table object once and then lock the Symtab object. Since all APIs on the symbol table use this lock, this will prevent anyone from using the symbol table before it is parsed and finalized and will avoid the deadlock I mentioned. ObjectFileELF::GetSymtab() was never locking the module lock before and would put off creating the symbol table until somewhere inside ObjectFileELF::GetSymtab(). Now we create it one time inside of the ObjectFile::GetSymtab() and immediately lock it which should be safe enough. This avoids the deadlocks and still provides safety.
