This patch unifies the comdat and non-comdat code paths. By doing this
it add missing features to the comdat side and removes the fixed
section assumptions from the non-comdat side.
In ELF there is no one true section for "4 byte mergeable" constants.
We are better off computing the required properties of the section
and asking the context for it.

The problem in the original patch was not switching back to .text after printing
an eh table.
Original message:
On ELF, put PIC jump tables in a non executable section.
Fixes PR22558.

Add support for having multiple sections with the same name and comdat.
Using this in combination with -ffunction-sections allows LLVM to output a .o
file with mulitple sections named .text. This saves space by avoiding long
unique names of the form .text.<C++ mangled name>.

For #pragma comment(linker, ...) MSVC expects the comment string to be quoted, but for #pragma comment(lib, ...) the compiler itself quotes the library name.
Since this distinction disappears by the time the directive reaches the backend, move quoting for the "lib" version to the frontend.

regressions for LLDB on Linux. Rafael indicated on lldb-dev that we
should just go ahead and revert these but that he wasn't at a computer.
The patches backed out are as follows:
r228980: Add support for having multiple sections with the name and ...
r228889: Invert the section relocation map.
r228888: Use the existing SymbolTableIndex intsead of doing a lookup.
r228886: Create the Section -> Rel Section map when it is first needed.
These patches look pretty nice to me, so hoping its not too hard to get
them re-instated. =D

Parts of llvm were not expecting it and we wouldn't print
the entity size of the section.
Given what comdats are used for, having SHF_MERGE sections would be
just a small improvement, so just disable it for now.
Fixes pr22463.

Any code creating an MCSectionELF knows ELF and already provides the flags.
SectionKind is an abstraction used by common code that uses a plain
MCSection.
Use the flags to compute the SectionKind. This removes a lot of
guessing and boilerplate from the MCSectionELF construction.

ELF has support for sections that can be split into fixed size or
null terminated entities.
Since these sections can be split by the linker, it is not necessary
to split them in codegen.
This reduces the combined .o size in a llvm+clang build from
202,394,570 to 173,819,098 bytes.
The time for linking clang with gold (on a VM, on a laptop) goes
from 2.250089985 to 1.383001792 seconds.
The flip side is the size of rodata in clang goes from 10,926,785
to 10,929,345 bytes.
The increase seems to be because of http://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=17902.

derived classes.
Since global data alignment, layout, and mangling is often based on the
DataLayout, move it to the TargetMachine. This ensures that global
data is going to be layed out and mangled consistently if the subtarget
changes on a per function basis. Prior to this all targets(*) have
had subtarget dependent code moved out and onto the TargetMachine.
*One target hasn't been migrated as part of this change: R600. The
R600 port has, as a subtarget feature, the size of pointers and
this affects global data layout. I've currently hacked in a FIXME
to enable progress, but the port needs to be updated to either pass
the 64-bitness to the TargetMachine, or fix the DataLayout to
avoid subtarget dependent features.

No change in this commit, but clang was changed to also produce trivial comdats when
needed.
Original message:
Don't create new comdats in CodeGen.
This patch stops the implicit creation of comdats during codegen.
Clang now sets the comdat explicitly when it is required. With this patch clang and gcc
now produce the same result in pr19848.

This is affecting the behavior of some ObjC++ / AArch64 test cases on Darwin.
Reverting to get the bots green while I track down the source of the changed
behavior.
