Ed Maste 421fdaa121 Document --build-id=fast in ld.lld.1
Initial ld.lld.1 man page commit in r324512 crossed paths with r324502
which added --build-id=fast, allowing --build-id to be documented as a
synonym for --build-id=fast. Catch up with that change in the man page.

Ed Maste 3a775a17ca Add ld.lld.1 man page, describing lld's ELF linker
One of the FreeBSD requirements for enabling lld as the system linker is
that it has a man page. Other FreeBSD developers and I created one using
lld's --help output as a starting point.  This is an expanded and
improved version of that.

This man page would benefit from additional content, but it provides
basic user-facing coverage of lld's options and serves as a good
starting point.

Rui Ueyama f1f00841d9 Merge SymbolBody and Symbol into one class, SymbolBody.
SymbolBody and Symbol were separated classes due to a historical reason.
Symbol used to be a pointer to a SymbolBody, and the relationship
between Symbol and SymbolBody was n:1.

r2681780 changed that. Since that patch, SymbolBody and Symbol are
allocated next to each other to improve memory locality, and they have
1:1 relationship now. So, the separation of Symbol and SymbolBody no
longer makes sense.

This patch merges them into one class. In order to avoid updating too
many places, I chose SymbolBody as a unified name. I'll rename it Symbol
in a follow-up patch.

Rui Ueyama 3f851704c1 Move new lld's code to Common subdirectory.
New lld's files are spread under lib subdirectory, and it isn't easy
to find which files are actually maintained. This patch moves maintained
files to Common subdirectory.

Shoaib Meenai e7ecbbcd62 [lld] Update Windows support docs
The /appcontainer flag was added in r299728, and the lib.exe dependency
for creating import libraries was removed in r275242. Update the docs
accordingly.

The PDB support also needs updating, but I'll leave that for someone
who's more familiar with the current status (probably rnk).

readelf's output is much easier to read than objdump's as you can see below.
