Set the default for -bbsections-cold-text-prefix to .text.split.

[snehasish]

Summary

After using this for a while, we find that it is generally useful to
have it set to .text.split. by default, removing the need for an
additional -mllvm option.

[snehasish]

Updated tests to use .text.split. prefix.

[tmsriram]

This LGTM as there is an option to keep it in ".text.unlikely" if desired. Please wait for Eric's response too. Thanks!

.text.split -> .text.split.

[snehasish]

Update prefix to .text.split.

Thanks for the review.
