[codeview] Expose -gcodeview-ghash for global type hashing

[rnk]

Summary

Experience has shown that the functionality is useful. It makes linking
optimized clang with debug info for me a lot faster, 20s to 13s. The
type merging phase of PDB writing goes from 10s to 3s.

This removes the LLVM cl::opt and replaces it with a metadata flag.

After this change, users can do the following to use ghash:

• add -gcodeview-ghash to compiler flags
• replace /DEBUG with /DEBUG:GHASH in linker flags

This change makes sense to me.
But I want chromium config will be updated in next clang roll.

@rnk Could you possibly post build metrics for Chromium (for the whole build process, compilation and link) with and without ghash?
In my early tests, it seemed that on a large project, compilation was a bit slower overall, but linking was faster.
If that still holds, enabling ghash seems only useful when iterating, or if you have a good caching mecanism in your build system (which would avoid rebuilding all).

I think we'll put the complete analysis here: https://crbug.com/904324 You should be able to star the issue with any google account to get updates by mail.

That sounds right. It effectively moves hashing work from link time to compile time, which you can mitigate by parallelizing the build with lots of cores or a fancy distributed build system. The extra object file size is crummy, though.

[rnk]

I collected statistics:
https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=904324#c4
The summary is that links in Chromium get 32% faster, but object files grow by 7%. There is no compile time impact. Check it out for more details.

Should the directions in http://blog.llvm.org/2018/01/improving-link-time-on-windows-with.html be updated with the new flags?
