Note that PointerUnion::{is,get} have been soft deprecated in
PointerUnion.h:
// FIXME: Replace the uses of is(), get() and dyn_cast() with
// isa<T>, cast<T> and the llvm::dyn_cast<T>
I'm not touching PointerUnion::dyn_cast for now because it's a bit
complicated; we could blindly migrate it to dyn_cast_if_present, but
we should probably use dyn_cast when the operand is known to be
non-null.

Previously we only supporting using the system pointer size (aka the
`absptr` encoding) because `llvm-mc`'s CFI directives always generate EH
frames with that encoding. But libffi uses 4-byte-encoded, hand-rolled
EH frames, so this patch adds support for it.
Fixes #56576.

== Background ==
`llvm-mc` generates unwind info in both compact unwind and DWARF
formats. LLD already handles the compact unwind format; this diff gets
us close to handling the DWARF format properly.
== Caveats ==
It's not quite done yet, but I figure it's worth getting this reviewed
and landed first as it's shaping up to be a fairly large code change.
**Known limitations of the current code:**
* Only works for x86_64, for which `llvm-mc` emits "abs-ified"
relocations as described in https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/commit/618def651b59bd42c05bbd91d825af2fb2145683.
`llvm-mc` emits regular relocations for ARM EH frames, which we do not
yet handle correctly.
Since the feature is not ready for real use yet, I've gated it behind a
flag that only gets toggled on during test suite runs. With most of the
new code disabled, we see just a hint of perf regression, so I don't
think it'd be remiss to land this as-is:

user_time 3.590 ± 0.033 3.606 ± 0.028 [ +0.0% .. +0.9%]
wall_time 7.104 ± 0.184 7.179 ± 0.151 [ -0.2% .. +2.3%]

== Design ==
Like compact unwind entries, EH frames are also represented as regular
ConcatInputSections that get pointed to via `Defined::unwindEntry`. This
allows them to be handled generically by e.g. the MarkLive and ICF
code. (But note that unlike compact unwind subsections, EH frame
subsections do end up in the final binary.)
In order to make EH frames "look like" a regular ConcatInputSection,
some processing is required. First, we need to split the `__eh_frame`
section along EH frame boundaries rather than along symbol boundaries.
We do this by decoding the length field of each EH frame. Second, the
abs-ified relocations need to be turned into regular Relocs.
== Next Steps ==
In order to support EH frames on ARM targets, we will either have to
teach LLD how to handle EH frames with explicit relocs, or we can try to
make `llvm-mc` emit abs-ified relocs for ARM as well. I'm hoping to do
the latter as I think it will make the LLD implementation both simpler
and faster to execute.
== Misc ==
The `obj-file-with-stabs.s` test had to be updated as the previous
version would trip assertion errors in the code. It appears that in our
attempt to produce a minimal YAML test input, we created a file with
invalid EH frame data. I've fixed this by re-generating the YAML and not
doing any hand-pruning of it.
