`Driver::ClangExecutable` is derived from:
* (-canonical-prefixes default): `realpath` on the executable path
* (-no-canonical-prefixes) argv[0] (consult PATH if argv[0] is a word)
`Dir` and `ResourceDir` are derived from `ClangExecutable`. Both
variables are used to derive certain include and library paths.
`InstalledDir` is a related concept used to derive certain other paths.
`InstalledDir` is weird in the -canonical-prefixes mode: Clang
calls `make_absolute` but does not follow symlinks
(FIXME from 9ade6a9a74).
This causes some search and library paths to be mix-and-matched.
The "Do a PATH lookup, if there are no directory components." logic
makes things worse.
`InstalledDir` is different when you invoke it via `PATH`:
```
% which clang
/usr/bin/clang
% clang -v |& grep InstalledDir
InstalledDir: /usr/bin
% /usr/lib/llvm-16/bin/clang -v |& grep InstalledDir
InstalledDir: /usr/lib/llvm-16/bin
```
I believe `InstalledDir` was a partial solution to
`-no-canonical-prefixes` and should be eventually removed.
This patch removes `SetInstallDir` and relies on Driver::Driver to set
`InstalledDir` to `Dir`. The behavior for regular file `clang` or
`-no-canonical-prefixes` is unchanged.
If a user creates a symlink to the regular file `clang` and uses the
default `-canonical-prefixes`, they now consistently get search and
library paths relative to the regular file `clang`, not mix-and-match
paths.
If a user creates a symlink to the regular file `clang` and replaces
some directorys from the actual installation, they should change the
symlink to a wrapper that calls the underlying clang with
`-no-canonical-prefixes`.
