Reapply "[NFC][DebugInfo][DWARF] Create new low-level dwarf library (#…
(#145959)
    
This reapplies cbf781f0bdf2f680abbe784faedeefd6f84c246e, with fixes for
the shared-library build and the unconventional sanitizer-runtime build.

Original Description:

This is the culmination of a series of changes described in [1].
    
Although somewhat large by line count, it is almost entirely mechanical,
creating a new library in DebugInfo/DWARF/LowLevel. This new library has
very minimal dependencies, allowing it to be used from more places than
the normal DebugInfo/DWARF library--in particular from MC.

creating a new library in DebugInfo/DWARF/LowLevel. This new library has
very minimal dependencies, allowing it to be used from more places than
the normal DebugInfo/DWARF library--in particular from MC.
    
I am happy to put it in another location, or to structure it differently
if that makes sense. Some have suggested in BinaryFormat, but it is not
a great fit there. But if that makes more sense to the reviewers, I can
do that.
 
Another possibility would be to use pass-through headers to allow
clients who don't care to depend only on DebugInfo/DWARF. This would be
a much less invasive change, and perhaps easier for clients. But also a
system that hides details.

Either way, I'm open.

Incorrect handling of 'tombstone' value for WebAssembly.

llvm-debuginfo-analyzer already uses the tombstone approach
to identify dead code. Currently, the tombstone value is
evaluated as std::numeric_limits&lt;uint64_t&gt;::max(). Which is
wrong as it does not take into account the 'Address Byte Size'
from the Compile Unit header.</content>

<title>Add support for Windows Secure Hot-Patching (redo) (#145565)</title>

(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.
