add the ability to call InitTargetOptionsFromCodeGenFlags from multiple objects

[inglorion]

Summary

llvm/CodeGen/CommandFlags.h a utility function InitTargetOptionsFromCodeGenFlags which is used to set target options from flags based on the command line. The command line flags are stored in globals defined in the same file, and including the file in multiple places causes the globals to be defined multiple times, leading to linker errors. This change adds a single place in lld where these globals are defined and exports only the utility function. This makes it possible to call InitTargetOptionsFromCodeGenFlags from multiple places in lld, which a follow-up change will do.

Are you actually going to use InitTargetOptionsFromCodeGenFlag function defined in this patch in future?

[inglorion]

D29059 uses this.

[davide]

The code LGTM. If Rui/Peter think it's OK to ship this for COFF, I'm fine with this going in.

[ruiu]

Sorry for the belated response. I think this should live under lld/lib/Core instead of lld/lib/Config because this is not a configuration or something.

[inglorion]

Good point, @ruiu. Moved this to Core.

LGTM

I'd remove the outer namespace and s/InitTarget/lld::InitTarget/.

[davide]

LGTM assuming you plan to use this in the COFF lld backend.

[inglorion]

removed outer namespace and put it on the function instead
