LLD resolves symbols before performing LTO compilation, assuming that the symbols in question are resolved by the resulting object files from LTO. However, there is a scenario where the prevailing symbols might be resolved incorrectly due to specific assembly symbols not appearing in the symbol table of the bitcode. This patch deals with such a scenario by generating an error instead of silently allowing a mis-linkage.
If a prevailing symbol is resolved through post-loaded archives via LC linker options, a warning will now be issued.

Currently, the --thinlto-prefix-replace="oldpath;newpath" option is used during
distributed ThinLTO thin links to specify the mapping of the input bitcode object
files' directory tree (oldpath) to the directory tree (newpath) used for both:
1) the output files of the thin link itself (the .thinlto.bc index files and the
optional .imports files)
2) the specified object file paths written to the response file given in the
--thinlto-index-only=${response} option, which is used by the final native
link and must match the paths of the native object files that will be
produced by ThinLTO backend compiles.
This patch expands the --thinlto-prefix-replace option to allow a separate directory
tree mapping to be specified for the object file paths written to the response file
(number 2 above). This is important to support builds and build systems where the
same output directory may not be written by multiple build actions (e.g. the thin link
and the ThinLTO backend compiles).
The new format is: --thinlto-prefix-replace="origpath;outpath[;objpath]"
This replaces the origpath directory tree of the thin link input files with
outpath when writing the thin link index and imports outputs (number 1
above). If objpath is specified it replaces origpath of the input files with
objpath when writing the response file (number 2 above), otherwise it
falls back to the old behavior of using outpath for this as well.

This reverts commit 387620aa8c.
Currently the lto native object files have names like main.exe.lto.1.obj. In
PDB, those names are used as names for each compiland. Microsoft’s tool
SizeBench uses those names to present to users the size of each object files.
So, names like main.exe.lto.1.obj is not user friendly.
This patch makes the lto native object file names more readable by using
the bitcode file names as part of the file names. For example, if the input
bitcode file has path like "path/to/foo.obj", its corresponding lto native
object file path would be "path/to/main.exe.lto.foo.obj". Since the lto native
object file name only bothers PDB, this patch only changes the lld-linker's
behavior.

A specific case for ThinLTO cache pruning is that the current build is huge, and the cache wasn't big enough to hold the intermediate object files of that build. So in doing that build, a file would be cached, and later in that same build it would be evicted. This was significantly decreasing the effectiveness of the cache. By giving this warning, the user could identify the required cache size/files and improve ThinLTO link speed.

This refactors LTO compile to look more like COFF, where cache hits and misses are all funneled through the same code path.
Previously, cache hits were *not* being saved to -object_path_lto, which led to them sometimes falling out of the cache before dsymutil could process them. As a side effect of the refactor, cached objects are now saved with -save-temps as well, which seems desirable.
(Deleted lld/test/MachO/lto-cache-dsymutil.ll and rolled it into lld/test/MachO/lto-object-path.ll, since the cache-only, non object path approach is unreliable anyway).

This allows LLVM's LTO to internalize symbols that are not referenced
directly by regular objects. Naturally, this means we need to track
which symbols are referenced by regular objects. The approach taken here
is similar to LLD-COFF's: like the COFF port, we extend
`SymbolTable::insert()` to set the isVisibleToRegularObj bit. (LLD-ELF
relies on the Symbol constructor and `Symbol::mergeProperties()`, but
the Mach-O port does not have a `mergeProperties()` equivalent.)
From what I can tell, ld64 (which uses libLTO) doesn't do this
optimization at all. I'm not even sure libLTO provides a way to do this.
Not having ld64's behavior as a reference implementation is unfortunate;
instead, I am relying on LLD-ELF/COFF's behavior as references while
erring on the conservative side. In particular, LLD-MachO will only do
this optimization for executables right now.
We also don't attempt it when `-flat_namespace` is used -- otherwise
we'd need scan the symbol table to find matches for every un-namespaced
symbol reference, which is expensive.
internalize.ll is based off the LLD-ELF tests `internalize-basic.ll` and

When parsing bitcode, convert LTO Symbols to LLD Symbols in order to perform
resolution. The "winning" symbol will then be marked as Prevailing at LTO
compilation time. This is similar to what the other LLD ports do.
This change allows us to handle `linkonce` symbols correctly, and to deal with
duplicate bitcode symbols gracefully. Previously, both scenarios would result in
an assertion failure inside the LTO code, complaining that multiple Prevailing
definitions are not allowed.
While at it, I also added basic logic around visibility. We don't do anything
useful with it yet, but we do check that its value is valid. LLD-ELF appears to
use it only to set FinalDefinitionInLinkageUnit for LTO, which I think is just a
performance optimization.
From my local experimentation, the linker itself doesn't seem to do anything
differently when encountering linkonce / linkonce_odr / weak / weak_odr. So I've
only written a test for one of them. LLD-ELF has more, but they seem to mostly
be testing the intermediate bitcode output of their LTO backend...? I'm far from
