The semantics of SHF_LINK_ORDER have been extended to represent metadata
sections associated with some other sections (usually text).
The associated text section may be discarded (e.g. LTO) and we want the
metadata section to have sh_link=0 (D72899, D76802).
Normally the metadata section is only referenced by the associated text
section. sh_link=0 means the associated text section is discarded, and
the metadata section will be garbage collected. If there is another
section (.gc_root) referencing the metadata section, the metadata
section will be retained. It's the .gc_root consumer's job to validate
the metadata sections.
# This creates a SHF_LINK_ORDER .meta with sh_link=0
.section .meta,"awo",@progbits,0

.section .meta,"awo",@progbits,foo
2:
.section .gc_root,"a",@progbits

Clang and GCC have a feature (-MD flag) to create a dependency file
in a format that build systems such as Make or Ninja can read, which
specifies all the additional inputs such .h files.
This change introduces the same functionality to lld bringing it to
feature parity with ld and gold which gained this feature recently.
See https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=22843 for more
details and discussion.
The implementation corresponds to -MD -MP compiler flag where the
generated dependency file also includes phony targets which works
around the errors where the dependency is removed. This matches the
format used by ld and gold.

-r --gc-sections is usually not useful because it just makes intermediate output
smaller. https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=46700#c7 mentions a use case:
validating the absence of undefined symbols ealier than in the final link.
After D84129 (SHT_GROUP support in -r links), we can support -r
--gc-sections without extra code. So let's allow it.

D79300 forgot to change `getBuffer().empty()` in LazyObjFile::parse to
`fetched`. This caused incorrect iterating after the current LazyObjFile was
fetched. This issue is benign and can just cause loss of "undefined symbols"
and "backward reference" diagnostics.
Before D79300 `mb = {}` caused --warn-backrefs-exclude to be useless for
a fetched LazyObjFile.
Add two test cases.
Fixes PR46348.
ObjFile<ELFT>::initializeSymbols contains two symbol iteration loops:
```
for each symbol
if non-inheriting && non-local
fill in this->symbols[i]
for each symbol
if local
fill in this->symbols[i]
else
symbol resolution
```
Symbol resolution can trigger a duplicate symbol error which will call
InputSectionBase::getObjMsg to iterate over InputFile::symbols. If a
non-local symbol appears after the non-local symbol being resolved
(violating ELF spec), its `this->symbols[i]` entry has not been filled
in, InputSectionBase::getObjMsg will crash due to
`dyn_cast<Defined>(nullptr)`.
To fix the bug, reorganize the two loops to ensure this->symbols is
complete before symbol resolution. This enforces the invariant:
InputFile::symbols has none null entry when InputFile::getSymbols() is called.
```
for each symbol
if non-inheriting
fill in this->symbols[i]
for each symbol starting from firstGlobal
if non-local
symbol resolution
```
Additionally, move the (non-local symbol in local part of .symtab)
diagnostic from Writer<ELFT>::copyLocalSymbols() to initializeSymbols().

Fixes PR45594.
In `ObjFile<ELFT>::initializeSymbols()`, for a defined symbol relative to
a discarded section (due to section group rules), it may have been
inserted as a lazy symbol. We need to demote it to an Undefined to
enable the `discarded section` error happened in a later pass.
Add `LazyObjFile::fetched` (if true) and `ArchiveFile::parsed` (if
false) to represent that there is an ongoing lazy symbol fetch and we
should replace the current lazy symbol with an Undefined, instead of
calling `Symbol::resolve` (`Symbol::resolve` should be called if the lazy
symbol was added by an unrelated archive/lazy object).
As a side result, one small issue in start-lib-comdat.s is now fixed.
The hack motivating D51892 will be unsupported: if
`.gnu.linkonce.t.__i686.get_pc_thunk.bx` in an archive is referenced
by another section, this will likely be errored unless the function is
also defined in a regular object file.
(Bringing back rL330869 would error `undefined symbol` instead of the
more relevant `discarded section`.)
Note, glibc i386's crti.o still works (PR31215), because
`.gnu.linkonce.t.__x86.get_pc_thunk.bx` is in crti.o (one of the first
regular object files in a linker command line).

Bazel created interface shared objects (.ifso) may be misaligned. We use
llvm::support::detail::packed_endian_specific_integral under the hood
which allows reading of misaligned values, so there is not a need to
diagnose (in LLD we don't intend to support sophisticated parsing for
SHT_GNU_*).
An undefined symbol in a shared object can be versioned, like `f@v1`.
We currently insert `f` as an Undefined into the symbol table, but we
should insert `f@v1` instead.
The string `v1` is inferred from SHT_GNU_versym and SHT_GNU_verneed.
This patch implements the functionality.
Failing to do this can cause two issues:
* If a versioned symbol referenced by a shared object is defined in the
executable, we will fail to export it.
* If a versioned symbol referenced by a shared object in another object
file, --no-allow-shlib-undefined may spuriously report an
"undefined reference to " error. See https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=44842
(Linking -lfftw3 -lm on Arch Linux can cause
`undefined reference to __log_finite`)

This is fixing a thinLTO module collision issue for thin archives. The problem is that we always use a zero offset to name members in a thin archive and that causes the following build error:
ld.lld: error: Expected at most one ThinLTO module per bitcode file
which happens to a thin archive that has two members with the same object file name (whose paths will be ignored by thinLTO driver)
The fix here is to use real member offset instead as is done for non-thin archives.

gold has an option --print-symbol-counts= which prints:
// For each archive
archive $archive $members $fetched_members
// For each object file
symbols $object $defined_symbols $used_defined_symbols
In most cases, `$defined_symbols = $used_defined_symbols` unless weak
symbols are present. Strangely `$used_defined_symbols` includes symbols defined relative to --gc-sections discarded sections.
The `symbols` lines do not appear to be useful.
`archive` lines are useful: `$fetched_members=0` lines correspond to
unused archives. The information can be used to trim dependencies.
This patch implements --print-archive-stats= which prints the number of
members and the number of fetched members for each archive.

Any OUTPUT_FORMAT in a linker script overrides the emulation passed on
the command line, so record the passed bfdname and use that in the error
message about incompatible input files.
This prevents confusing error messages. For example, if you explicitly
pass `-m elf_x86_64` to LLD but accidentally include a linker script
which sets `OUTPUT_FORMAT(elf32-i386)`, LLD would previously complain
about your input files being compatible with elf_x86_64, which isn't the
actual issue, and is confusing because the input files are in fact
x86-64 ELF files.
Interestingly enough, this also prevents a segfault! When we don't pass
`-m` and we have an object file which is incompatible with the
`OUTPUT_FORMAT` set by a linker script, the object file is checked for
compatibility before it's added to the objectFiles vector.
config->emulation, objectFiles, and sharedFiles will all be empty, so
we'll attempt to access bitcodeFiles[0], but bitcodeFiles is also empty,
so we'll segfault. This commit prevents the segfault by adding
OUTPUT_FORMAT as a possible source of machine configuration, and it also
adds an llvm_unreachable to diagnose similar issues in the future.

Summary:
LLD has workaround for the times when SectionIndex was not passed properly:
LT->getFileLineInfoForAddress(
S->getOffsetInFile() + Offset, nullptr,
DILineInfoSpecifier::FileLineInfoKind::AbsoluteFilePath, Info));
S->getOffsetInFile() was added to differentiate offsets between
various sections. Now SectionIndex is properly specified.
Thus it is not necessary to use getOffsetInFile() workaround.
See https://reviews.llvm.org/D58194, https://reviews.llvm.org/D58357.
This patch removes getOffsetInFile() workaround.

This is how it should've been and brings it more in line with
std::string_view. There should be no functional change here.
This is mostly mechanical from a custom clang-tidy check, with a lot of
manual fixups. It uncovers a lot of minor inefficiencies.
This doesn't actually modify StringRef yet, I'll do that in a follow-up.
