[LinkerWrapper] Forward `-mllvm` options to the linker wrapper
This patch adds the ability to use `-mllvm` options in the linker wrapper when performing bitcode linking or the module compilation. This is done by passing in the LLVM argument to the clang-linker-wrapper tool. Inside the linker-wrapper tool we invoke the `CommandLine` parser solely for forwarding command line options to the `clang-linker-wrapper` to the LLVM tools that also use the `CommandLine` parser. The actual arguments to the linker wrapper are parsed using the `Opt` library instead. For example, in the following command the `CommandLine` parser will attempt to parse `abc`, while the `opt` parser takes `-mllvm <arg>` and ignores it so it is not passed to the linker arguments. ``` clang-linker-wrapper -mllvm -abc -- <linker-args> ``` As far as I can tell this is the easiest way to forward arguments to LLVM tool invocations. If there is a better way to pass these arguments (such as through the LTO config) let me know. Reviewed By: MaskRay Differential Revision: https://reviews.llvm.org/D129424
