Most of `MemoryBuffer` interfaces expose a `RequiresNullTerminator` parameter that's being used to:
* determine how to open a file (`mmap` vs `open`),
* assert newly initialized buffer indeed has an implicit null terminator.
This patch adds the paramater to the `SmallVectorMemoryBuffer` constructors, meaning:
* null terminator can now be added to `SmallVector`s that didn't have one before,
* `SmallVectors` that had a null terminator before keep it even after the move.
In line with existing code, the new parameter is defaulted to `true`. This patch makes sure all calls to the `SmallVectorMemoryBuffer` constructor set it to `false` to preserve the current semantics.

We almost always want to use the default AA pipeline. It's very easy for
users of PassBuilder to forget to customize the AAManager to use the
default AA pipeline (for example, the NewPM C API forgets to do this).
If somebody wants a custom AA pipeline, similar to what is being done
now with the default AA pipeline registration, they can
FAM.registerPass([&] { return std::move(MyAA); });
before calling
PB.registerFunctionAnalyses(FAM);
For example, LTOBackend.cpp and NewPMDriver.cpp do this.

As described on D111049, we're trying to remove the <string> dependency from error handling and replace uses of report_fatal_error(const std::string&) with the Twine() variant which can be forward declared.
Thinlink provides an opportunity to propagate function attributes across modules, enabling additional propagation opportunities.
This change propagates (currently default off, turn on with `disable-thinlto-funcattrs=1`) noRecurse and noUnwind based off of function summaries of the prevailing functions in bottom-up call-graph order. Testing on clang self-build:
1. There's a 35-40% increase in noUnwind functions due to the additional propagation opportunities.
2. Throughput is measured at 10-15% increase in thinlink time which itself is 1.5% of E2E link time.
Implementation-wise this adds the following summary function attributes:
1. noUnwind: function is noUnwind
2. mayThrow: function contains a non-call instruction that `Instruction::mayThrow` returns true on (e.g. windows SEH instructions)
3. hasUnknownCall: function contains calls that don't make it into the summary call-graph thus should not be propagated from (e.g. indirect for now, could add no-opt functions as well)
Testing:
Clang self-build passes and 2nd stage build passes check-all
ninja check-all with newly added tests passing

This patch

Protected/hidden can imply dso_local which can enable some optimizations (this
is stronger than GVFlags::DSOLocal because the implied dso_local can be

All these potential null pointer dereferences are reported by my static analyzer for null smart pointer dereferences, which has a different implementation from `alpha.cplusplus.SmartPtr`.
The checked pointers in this patch are initialized by Target::createXXX functions. When the creator function pointer is not correctly set, a null pointer will be returned, or the creator function may originally return a null pointer.
Some of them may not make sense as they may be checked before entering the function, but I fixed them all in this patch. I submit this fix because 1) similar checks are found in some other places in the LLVM codebase for the same return value of the function; and, 2) some of the pointers are dereferenced before they are checked, which may definitely trigger a null pointer dereference if the return value is nullptr.

This reverts 9b5b305023 and fixes the unwanted re-ordering when generating ThinLTO indexes.
The goal of this patch is to better balance thread utilization during ThinLTO in-process linking (in llvm-lto2 or in LLD). Before this patch, large modules would often be scheduled late during execution, taking a long time to complete, thus starving the thread pool.
We now sort modules in descending order, based on each module's bitcode size, so that larger modules are processed first. By doing so, smaller modules have a better chance to keep the thread pool active, and thus avoid starvation when the bitcode compilation is almost complete.
In our case (on dual Intel Xeon Gold 6140, Windows 10 version 2004, two-stage build), this saves 15 sec when linking `clang.exe` with LLD & -flto=thin, /opt:lldltojobs=all, no ThinLTO cache, -DLLVM_INTEGRATED_CRT_ALLOC=d:\git\rpmalloc.

Re-use an optimizition from the old LTO API (used by ld64).
This sorts modules in ascending order, based on bitcode size, so that larger modules are processed first. This allows for smaller modules to be process last, and better fill free threads 'slots', and thusly allow for better multi-thread load balancing.

There are diagnostic messages related to ThinLTO caching that contain

dso_local leads to direct access even if the definition is not within this compilation unit (it is
still in the same linkage unit). On ELF, such a relocation (e.g. R_X86_64_PC32) referencing a
STB_GLOBAL STV_DEFAULT object can cause a linker error in a -shared link.
If the linkage is changed to available_externally, the dso_local flag should be dropped, so that no
direct access will be generated.
The current behavior is benign, because -fpic does not assume dso_local
(clang/lib/CodeGen/CodeGenModule.cpp:shouldAssumeDSOLocal).

The goal of this patch is to maximize CPU utilization on multi-socket or high core count systems, so that parallel computations such as LLD/ThinLTO can use all hardware threads in the system. Before this patch, on Windows, a maximum of 64 hardware threads could be used at most, in some cases dispatched only on one CPU socket.
== Background ==
Windows doesn't have a flat cpu_set_t like Linux. Instead, it projects hardware CPUs (or NUMA nodes) to applications through a concept of "processor groups". A "processor" is the smallest unit of execution on a CPU, that is, an hyper-thread if SMT is active; a core otherwise. There's a limit of 32-bit processors on older 32-bit versions of Windows, which later was raised to 64-processors with 64-bit versions of Windows. This limit comes from the affinity mask, which historically is represented by the sizeof(void*). Consequently, the concept of "processor groups" was introduced for dealing with systems with more than 64 hyper-threads.
By default, the Windows OS assigns only one "processor group" to each starting application, in a round-robin manner. If the application wants to use more processors, it needs to programmatically enable it, by assigning threads to other "processor groups". This also means that affinity cannot cross "processor group" boundaries; one can only specify a "preferred" group on start-up, but the application is free to allocate more groups if it wants to.
This creates a peculiar situation, where newer CPUs like the AMD EPYC 7702P (64-cores, 128-hyperthreads) are projected by the OS as two (2) "processor groups". This means that by default, an application can only use half of the cores. This situation could only get worse in the years to come, as dies with more cores will appear on the market.
== The problem ==
The heavyweight_hardware_concurrency() API was introduced so that only *one hardware thread per core* was used. Once that API returns, that original intention is lost, only the number of threads is retained. Consider a situation, on Windows, where the system has 2 CPU sockets, 18 cores each, each core having 2 hyper-threads, for a total of 72 hyper-threads. Both heavyweight_hardware_concurrency() and hardware_concurrency() currently return 36, because on Windows they are simply wrappers over std:🧵:hardware_concurrency() -- which can only return processors from the current "processor group".
== The changes in this patch ==
To solve this situation, we capture (and retain) the initial intention until the point of usage, through a new ThreadPoolStrategy class. The number of threads to use is deferred as late as possible, until the moment where the std::threads are created (ThreadPool in the case of ThinLTO).
When using hardware_concurrency(), setting ThreadCount to 0 now means to use all the possible hardware CPU (SMT) threads. Providing a ThreadCount above to the maximum number of threads will have no effect, the maximum will be used instead.
The heavyweight_hardware_concurrency() is similar to hardware_concurrency(), except that only one thread per hardware *core* will be used.
When LLVM_ENABLE_THREADS is OFF, the threading APIs will always return 1, to ensure any caller loops will be exercised at least once.

Summary:
Third part in series to support Safe Whole Program Devirtualization
Enablement, see RFC here:
http://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/llvm-dev/2019-December/137543.html
This patch adds type test metadata under -fwhole-program-vtables,
even for classes without hidden visibility. It then changes WPD to skip
devirtualization for a virtual function call when any of the compatible
vtables has public vcall visibility.
Additionally, internal LLVM options as well as lld and gold-plugin
options are added which enable upgrading all public vcall visibility
to linkage unit (hidden) visibility during LTO. This enables the more
aggressive WPD to kick in based on LTO time knowledge of the visibility
guarantees.
Support was added to all flavors of LTO WPD (regular, hybrid and
index-only), and to both the new and old LTO APIs.
Unfortunately it was not simple to split the first and second parts of
this part of the change (the unconditional emission of type tests and
the upgrading of the vcall visiblity) as I needed a way to upgrade the
public visibility on legacy WPD llvm assembly tests that don't include
linkage unit vcall visibility specifiers, to avoid a lot of test churn.
I also added a mechanism to LowerTypeTests that allows dropping type
test assume sequences we now aggressively insert when we invoke
distributed ThinLTO backends with null indexes, which is used in testing
mode, and which doesn't invoke the normal ThinLTO backend pipeline.
Depends on D71907 and D71911.

Summary:
Keep aliasees alive if their alias is live, otherwise we end up with an
alias to a declaration, which is invalid. This can happen when the
aliasee is weak and non-prevailing.
This fix exposed the fact that we were then attempting to internalize
the weak symbol, which was not exported as it was not prevailing. We
should not internalize interposable symbols in general, unless this is
the prevailing copy, since it can lead to incorrect inlining and other
optimizations. Most of the changes in this patch are due to the
restructuring required to pass down the prevailing callback.
Finally, while implementing the test cases, I found that in the case of
a weak aliasee that is still marked not live because its alias isn't
live, after dropping the definition we incorrectly marked the
declaration with weak linkage when resolving prevailing symbols in the
module. This was due to some special case handling for symbols marked
WeakLinkage in the summary located before instead of after a subsequent
check for the symbol being a declaration. It turns out that we don't
actually need this special case handling any more (looking back at the
history, when that was added the code was structured quite differently)
- we will correctly mark with weak linkage further below when the
definition hasn't been dropped.

Summary:
On Windows, Posix integer file descriptors are a compatibility layer
over native file handles provided by the C runtime. There is a hard
limit on the maximum number of file descriptors that a process can open,
and the limit is 8192. LLD typically doesn't run into this limit because
it opens input files, maps them into memory, and then immediately closes
the file descriptor. This prevents it from running out of FDs.
For various reasons, I'd like to open handles to every input file and
keep them open during linking. That requires migrating MemoryBuffer over
to taking open native file handles instead of integer FDs.
