This is a ~port of https://reviews.llvm.org/D117284. Like in that change, archives without indices are treated as a collection of lazy object files (as in `--start-lib/--end-lib`) Porting the ELF follow-up to convert *all* archives to the lazy object code path (https://reviews.llvm.org/D119074) is a natural next step, but we would need to ensure the assertions about memory use hold for Mach-O. NB: without an index, we can't do the part of the `-ObjC` scan where we check for Objective-C symbols directly. We *can* still check for `__obcj` sections so I wonder how much of a problem this actually is, since I'm not sure how the "symbols but no sections" case can appear in the wild.
