This patch enhances the robustness of lld's Objective-C category merging. Currently, the category merger assumes it can fully parse and understand the format of all categories in the input, triggering an assert if any invalid category data is encountered. This will end up causing asserts in certain rare corner cases that are difficult to reproduce in small test cases. The proposed changes modify the behavior so that if invalid category data is detected, category merging is skipped for that specific class and all other categories sharing the same base class. This approach allows the linker to continue processing other categories without failing entirely due to a single problematic input. We also add a LIT test to where we corrupt category data and check that category merging for that class was skipped but the link was successful.
