[ELF] Read the call graph profile from object files.

Details

Summary

This uses the call graph profile embedded in the object files to construct the call graph.

This is read from a SHT_LLVM_CALL_GRAPH_PROFILE (0x6fff4c02) section as (uint32_t, uint32_t, uint64_t) tuples as (from symbol index, to symbol index, weight).

This depends on https://reviews.llvm.org/D44965 for llvm.

Why do you need to store this in Config? The code that is walking CallGraphProfileSymbols could just as easily walk CGProfile, no?

This should be very useful. Needs rebasing though.

I think Rafael is right and eliminating Config->CallGraphProfileSymbols would be better.
You could create a helper function to call from Driver.cpp that would scan over
CGProfile and add graph edges probably.

Can you add a test to check this line?

CGProfile is used only once so I think you can just inline it:

for (const Elf_CGProfile_Impl<ELFT> &CGPE : Obj->CGProfile)

I believe you can use {} instead of std::make_pair().
