A new LLVM specific TAG DW_TAG_LLVM_annotation is added.
The name is suggested by Paul Robinson ([1]).
Currently, this tag is used to output __attribute__((btf_tag("string")))
annotations in dwarf. The following is an example for a global
variable with two btf_tag attributes:
0x0000002a: DW_TAG_variable
DW_AT_name ("g1")
DW_AT_type (0x00000052 "int")
DW_AT_external (true)
DW_AT_decl_file ("/tmp/home/yhs/work/tests/llvm/btf_tag/t.c")
DW_AT_decl_line (8)
DW_AT_location (DW_OP_addr 0x0)
0x0000003f: DW_TAG_LLVM_annotation
DW_AT_name ("btf_tag")
DW_AT_const_value ("tag1")
0x00000048: DW_TAG_LLVM_annotation
DW_AT_name ("btf_tag")
DW_AT_const_value ("tag2")
0x00000051: NULL
In the future, DW_TAG_LLVM_annotation may encode other type
of non-string const value.
