This includes .seh_* directives for generating it from assembly.
It is designed fairly similarly to the ARM64 handling.
For .seh_handler directives, such as
".seh_handler __C_specific_handler, @except" (which is supported
on x86_64 and aarch64 so far), the "@except" bit doesn't work in
ARM assembly, as '@' is used as a comment character (on all current
platforms).
Allow using '%' instead of '@' for this purpose. This convention
is used by GAS in similar contexts already,
e.g. [1]:
Note on targets where the @ character is the start of a comment
(eg ARM) then another character is used instead. For example the
ARM port uses the % character.
In practice, this unfortunately means that all such .seh_handler
directives will need ifdefs for ARM.
Contrary to ARM64, on ARM, it's quite common that we can't evaluate
e.g. the function length at this point, due to instructions whose
length is finalized later. (Also, inline jump tables end with
a ".p2align 1".)
If unable to to evaluate the function length immediately, emit
it as an MCExpr instead. If we'd implement splitting the unwind
info for a function (which isn't implemented for ARM64 yet either),
we wouldn't know whether we need to split it though.
Avoid calling getFrameIndexOffset() on an unset
FuncInfo.UnwindHelpFrameIdx, to avoid triggering asserts in the
preexisting testcase CodeGen/ARM/Windows/wineh-basic.ll. (Once
MSVC exception handling is fully implemented, those changes
can be reverted.)

For the AIX linker, under default options, global or weak symbols which
have no visibility bits set to zero (i.e. no visibility, similar to ELF
default) are only exported if specified on an export list provided to
the linker. So AIX has an additional visibility style called
"exported" which indicates to the linker that the symbol should
be explicitly globally exported.
This change maps "dllexport" in the LLVM IR to correspond to XCOFF
exported as we feel this best models the intended semantic (discussion
on the discourse RFC thread: https://discourse.llvm.org/t/rfc-adding-exported-visibility-style-to-the-ir-to-model-xcoff-exported-visibility/61853)
and allows us to enable writing this visibility for the AIX target

For PGO on AIX, when we switch to the linux-style PGO variable access

- __llvm_prf_vnds[RW]
We insert the .ref inside the __llvm_prf_cnts[RW] csect so that if it's
live then the 3 csects are live.
For example, for a testcase with at least one function definition, when
compiled with -fprofile-generate we should generate:
.csect __llvm_prf_cnts[RW],3
.ref __llvm_prf_data[RW] <<============ needs to be inserted
.ref __llvm_prf_names[RO] <<===========

This is caused by the compiler being unable to drop unused code now
referenced by the alias in module-level inline assembly. This change
adds a .set_conditional assembly extension, which emits an assignment
only if the target symbol is also emitted, avoiding phantom references
to functions that could have otherwise been dropped.

It utilizes "darwin.target_variant.triple" and "darwin.target_variant.SDK Version" metadata names for that,
which will be set by a future patch in clang.
MachO uses two build version load commands to represent an object file / binary that is targeting both the macOS target,
and the Mac Catalyst target. At runtime, a dynamic library that supports both targets can be loaded from either a native
macOS or a Mac Catalyst app on a macOS system. We want to add support to this to upstream to LLVM to be able to build
compiler-rt for both targets, to finish the complete support for the Mac Catalyst platform, which is right now targetable
by upstream clang, but the compiler-rt bits aren't supported because of the lack of this multiple build version support.

In preparation for passing the MCSubtargetInfo (STI) through to writeNops
so that it can use the STI in operation at the time, we need to record the
STI in operation when a MCAlignFragment may write nops as padding. The
STI is currently unused, a further patch will pass it through to
writeNops.
There are many places that can create an MCAlignFragment, in most cases
we can find out the STI in operation at the time. In a few places this
isn't possible as we are in initialisation or finalisation, or are
emitting constant pools. When possible I've tried to find the most
appropriate existing fragment to obtain the STI from, when none is
available use the per module STI.
For constant pools we don't actually need to use EmitCodeAlign as the
constant pools are data anyway so falling through into it via an
executable NOP is no better than falling through into data padding.
This is a prerequisite for D45962 which uses the STI to emit the
appropriate NOP for the STI. Which can differ per fragment.
Note that involves an interface change to InitSections. It is now
called initSections and requires a SubtargetInfo as a parameter.

This change implements pseudo probe encoding and emission for CSSPGO. Please see RFC here for more context: https://groups.google.com/g/llvm-dev/c/1p1rdYbL93s
Pseudo probes are in the form of intrinsic calls on IR/MIR but they do not turn into any machine instructions. Instead they are emitted into the binary as a piece of data in standalone sections. The probe-specific sections are not needed to be loaded into memory at execution time, thus they do not incur a runtime overhead.
**ELF object emission**
The binary data to emit are organized as two ELF sections, i.e, the `.pseudo_probe_desc` section and the `.pseudo_probe` section. The `.pseudo_probe_desc` section stores a function descriptor for each function and the `.pseudo_probe` section stores the actual probes, each fo which corresponds to an IR basic block or an IR function callsite. A function descriptor is stored as a module-level metadata during the compilation and is serialized into the object file during object emission.
Both the probe descriptors and pseudo probes can be emitted into a separate ELF section per function to leverage the linker for deduplication. A `.pseudo_probe` section shares the same COMDAT group with the function code so that when the function is dead, the probes are dead and disposed too. On the contrary, a `.pseudo_probe_desc` section has its own COMDAT group. This is because even if a function is dead, its probes may be inlined into other functions and its descriptor is still needed by the profile generation tool.
The format of `.pseudo_probe_desc` section looks like:
```
.section .pseudo_probe_desc,"",@progbits
.quad 6309742469962978389 // Func GUID
.quad 4294967295 // Func Hash
.byte 9 // Length of func name
.ascii "_Z5funcAi" // Func name

.quad 72617220756
.byte 7
.ascii "_Z3fibi"
```
For each `.pseudoprobe` section, the encoded binary data consists of a single function record corresponding to an outlined function (i.e, a function with a code entry in the `.text` section). A function record has the following format :
```
FUNCTION BODY (one for each outlined function present in the text section)
GUID (uint64)
GUID of the function
NPROBES (ULEB128)
Number of probes originating from this function.
NUM_INLINED_FUNCTIONS (ULEB128)
Number of callees inlined into this function, aka number of
first-level inlinees
PROBE RECORDS
A list of NPROBES entries. Each entry contains:
INDEX (ULEB128)
TYPE (uint4)
0 - block probe, 1 - indirect call, 2 - direct call
ATTRIBUTE (uint3)
reserved
ADDRESS_TYPE (uint1)
0 - code address, 1 - address delta
CODE_ADDRESS (uint64 or ULEB128)
code address or address delta, depending on ADDRESS_TYPE
INLINED FUNCTION RECORDS
A list of NUM_INLINED_FUNCTIONS entries describing each of the inlined
callees. Each record contains:
INLINE SITE
GUID of the inlinee (uint64)
ID of the callsite probe (ULEB128)
FUNCTION BODY
A FUNCTION BODY entry describing the inlined function.
```
To support building a context-sensitive profile, probes from inlinees are grouped by their inline contexts. An inline context is logically a call path through which a callee function lands in a caller function. The probe emitter builds an inline tree based on the debug metadata for each outlined function in the form of a trie tree. A tree root is the outlined function. Each tree edge stands for a callsite where inlining happens. Pseudo probes originating from an inlinee function are stored in a tree node and the tree path starting from the root all the way down to the tree node is the inline context of the probes. The emission happens on the whole tree top-down recursively. Probes of a tree node will be emitted altogether with their direct parent edge. Since a pseudo probe corresponds to a real code address, for size savings, the address is encoded as a delta from the previous probe except for the first probe. Variant-sized integer encoding, aka LEB128, is used for address delta and probe index.
**Assembling**
Pseudo probes can be printed as assembly directives alternatively. This allows for good assembly code readability and also provides a view of how optimizations and pseudo probes affect each other, especially helpful for diff time assembly analysis.
A pseudo probe directive has the following operands in order: function GUID, probe index, probe type, probe attributes and inline context. The directive is generated by the compiler and can be parsed by the assembler to form an encoded `.pseudoprobe` section in the object file.
A example assembly looks like:
```

# %bb.0: # %bb0
pushq %rax

".seh_startepilogue" matching the preexisting ".seh_endprologue".
For the directives for saving registers, the exact spelling
from the arm64 documentation is picked, e.g. ".seh_save_reg" (to follow
that naming for all the other ones, e.g. ".seh_save_fregp_x"), while
the corresponding one for x86_64 is plain ".seh_savereg" without the
second underscore.
Directives in the epilogues have the same names as in prologues,
e.g. .seh_savereg, even though the registers are restored, not
saved, at that point.

Summary:
This is a follow up for D82481. For .lcomm directive, although it's
not necessary to have .rename emitted, it's still desirable to do
it so that we do not see internal 'Rename..' gets print out in
symbol table. And we could have consistent naming between TC entry
and .lcomm. And also have consistent naming between IR and final
object file.

Summary:
AIX assembler does not generate correct relocation when .rename
appear between tc entry label and .tc directive.
So only emit .rename after .tc/.comm or other linkage is emitted.

For `.reloc offset, *, *`, currently offset can be a constant or symbol.
This patch makes it support any expression which can be folded to sym+constant.

Summary:
When a desired symbol name contains invalid character that the
system assembler could not process, we need to emit .rename
directive in assembly path in order for that desired symbol name
to appear in the symbol table.

SUMMARY:
in the aix assembly , it do not have .hidden and .protected directive.
in current llvm. if a function or a variable which has visibility attribute, it will generate something like the .hidden or .protected , it can not recognize by aix as.
in aix assembly, the visibility attribute are support in the pseudo-op like
.extern Name [ , Visibility ]
.globl Name [, Visibility ]
.weak Name [, Visibility ]
in this patch, we implement the visibility attribute for the global variable, function or extern function .
for example.
extern __attribute__ ((visibility ("hidden"))) int
bar(int* ip);
__attribute__ ((visibility ("hidden"))) int b = 0;
__attribute__ ((visibility ("hidden"))) int
foo(int* ip){
return (*ip)++;
}
the visibility of .comm linkage do not support , we will have a separate patch for it.
we have the unsupported cases ("default" and "internal") , we will implement them in a a separate patch for it.

Only MCAsmStreamer (assembly output) needs to keep names of temporary labels created by
MCContext::createTempSymbol().
This change made the rL236642 optimization available for cc2as and
probably some other users.
This eliminates a behavior difference between llvm-mc -filetype=obj and cc1as, which caused
