Teresa Johnson 0aa09c62cb [gold] emit assembly listing from gold plugin on LTO stage
Summary:
Sometimes it's useful to emit assembly after LTO stage to modify it manually. Emitting precodegen bitcode file (via save-temps plugin option) and then feeding it to llc doesn't always give the same binary as original.
This patch is simpler alternative to https://reviews.llvm.org/D24020.

The LLVM Gold LTO Plugin
========================

This directory contains a plugin that is designed to work with binutils
gold linker. At present time, this is not the default linker in
binutils, and the default build of gold does not support plugins.

See docs/GoldPlugin.html for complete build and usage instructions.

NOTE: libLTO and LLVMgold aren't built without PIC because they would fail
to link on x86-64 with a relocation error: PIC and non-PIC can't be combined.
As an alternative to passing --enable-pic, you can use 'make ENABLE_PIC=1' in
your entire LLVM build.
