This patch replaces RuntimeDyld::SymbolInfo with JITSymbol: A symbol class
that is capable of lazy materialization (i.e. the symbol definition needn't be
emitted until the address is requested). This can be used to support common
and weak symbols in the JIT (though this is not implemented in this patch).
For consistency, RuntimeDyld::SymbolResolver is renamed to JITSymbolResolver.
For space efficiency a new class, JITEvaluatedSymbol, is introduced that
behaves like the old RuntimeDyld::SymbolInfo - i.e. it is just a pair of an
address and symbol flags. Instances of JITEvaluatedSymbol can be used in
symbol-tables to avoid paying the space cost of the materializer.

This new chapter describes compiling LLVM IR to object files.
The new chaper is chapter 8, so later chapters have been renumbered.
Since this brings us to 10 chapters total, I've also needed to rename
the other chapters to use two digit numbering.

Nearly all the changes to this pass have been done while maintaining and
updating other parts of LLVM. LLVM has had another pass, SROA, which
has superseded ScalarReplAggregates for quite some time.

This chapter discusses IR optimizations, the ORC IRTransformLayer, and the ORC
layer concept itself.
The text is still pretty rough, but I think the main ideas are there. Feedback
is very welcome, as always.

This tidies up some code that was manually constructing RuntimeDyld::SymbolInfo
instances from JITSymbols. It will save more mess in the future when
JITSymbol::getAddress is extended to return an Expected<TargetAddress> rather
than just a TargetAddress, since we'll be able to embed the error checking in
the conversion.

* Various tidy-up and streamlining of existing discussion.
* Describes findSymbol and removeModule.
Chapter 1 is now rough but essentially complete in terms of content.
Feedback, patches etc. very welcome.
