Replace std::vector to std::array in SymbolSerializer
ClosedPublic

Details

Summary

SymbolSerializer::writeOneSymbol function is called very often and creates a temporary SymbolSerializer
RecordBuffer is always created with a constant size so it's much faster to allocate this memory on the stack instead of heap

The results of this and the other 2 patches look promising. Some initial benchmarks where I linked clang.exe using MSVC, lld with patch, and lld without patch are:

MSVC linker - 71.59s
lld without these 3 patches - 47.98s
lld with these 3 patches - 29.91s

Definitely a solid improvement. I'll run some more timings on Monday when I'm back in the office (as well as looking more closely at the 3 patches).

Thanks!
