Rui Ueyama aa7b304ea7 Remove the Native file format.
The Native file format was designed to be the fastest on-memory or
on-disk file format for object files. The problem is that no one
is working on that. No LLVM tools can produce object files in
the Native, thus the feature of supporting the format is useless
in the linker.

This patch removes the Native file support. We can add it back
if we really want it in future.

Greg Fitzgerald 4b6a7e355b Fix five of the shared library build targets
Before this patch there was a cyclic dependency between lldCore and
lldReaderWriter.  Only lldConfig could be built as a shared library.

* Moved Reader and Writer base classes into lldCore.
* The following shared libraries can now be built:
     lldCore
     lldYAML
     lldNative
     lldPasses
     lldReaderWriter

* musl libc built with no interwork and no Thumb code

Rui Ueyama df230b21e3 Re-commit r225674: Convert other drivers to use WrapperNode.
The original commit had an issue with Mac OS dylib files. It didn't
handle fat binary dylib files correctly. This patch includes a fix.
A test for that case has already been committed in r225764.

Dan Liew 7f1a97bda0 Fix missing favicon.ico warning (Sphinx 1.2.2). The comments next to
``html_favicon`` seem to conflict with [what it in the sphinx
docs](http://sphinx-doc.org/config.html#confval-html_favicon).

So I've copied the comments from there to conf.py and changed its
value appropriately to remove the missing favicon.ico warning.

Rui Ueyama 9aee050a0c Remove group-parent references.
Previously section groups are doubly linked to their children.
That is, an atom representing a group has group-child references
to its group contents, and content atoms also have group-parent
references to the group atom. That relationship was invariant;
if X has a group-child edge to Y, Y must have a group-parent
edge to X.

However we were not using group-parent references at all. The
resolver only needs group-child edges.

This patch simplifies the section group by removing the unused
reverse edge. No functionality change intended.

Nick Kledzik c314b46e71 This is my Driver refactoring patch.
The major changes are:
1) LinkerOptions has been merged into TargetInfo
2) LinkerInvocation has been merged into Driver
3) Drivers no longer convert arguments into an intermediate (core) argument 
   list, but instead create a TargetInfo object and call setter methods on 
   it. This is only how in-process linking would work. That is, you can 
   programmatically set up a TargetInfo object which controls the linking.
4) Lots of tweaks to test suite to work with driver changes
5) Add the DarwinDriver
6) I heavily doxygen commented TargetInfo.h

Things to do after this patch is committed:
a) Consider renaming TargetInfo, given its new roll. 
b) Consider pulling the list of input files out of TargetInfo. This will 
   enable in-process clients to create one TargetInfo the re-use it with 
   different input file lists.
c) Work out a way for Drivers to format the warnings and error done in 
   core linking.
