Simplify SymbolTable::add{Defined,Undefined,...} functions.
SymbolTable's add-family functions have lots of parameters because when they have to create a new symbol, they forward given arguments to Symbol's constructors. Therefore, the functions take at least as many arguments as their corresponding constructors. This patch simplifies the add-family functions. Now, the functions take a symbol instead of arguments to construct a symbol. If there's no existing symbol, a given symbol is memcpy'ed to the symbol table. Otherwise, the functions attempt to merge the existing and a given new symbol. I also eliminated `CanOmitFromDynSym` parameter, so that the functions take really one argument. Symbol classes are trivially constructible, so looks like constructing them to pass to add-family functions is as cheap as passing a lot of arguments to the functions. A quick benchmark showed that this patch seems performance-neutral. This is a preparation for http://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/llvm-dev/2019-April/131902.html Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D61855 llvm-svn: 360838
