When parsing the table of contents containing the symbols and their
positions we initially used the index within the map to retrieve
the offset. However, during resizing of the underlaying array this
would invalidate those indexes which meant incorrect offsets were
being stored for symbols. We now use the current symbol index
to also get the index into the symbol position instead.
When a data symbol is required to be exported, we instead generate
a global that will be exported. This global is immutable and contains
the address of the data symbol.
When invoking the self-hosted linker using `-fno-LLD` while using the
LLVM backend or invoking it as a linker, we create a seperate path.
This path will link the object file generated by LLVM and the
supplied object files just once, allowing to simplify the
implementation between incremental and regular linking.
This fixes a class of bugs on macOS where a segfault happening in
a loaded dylib with no debug info would cause a panic in the panic
handler instead of simply noting that the dylib has no valid debug
info via `error.MissingDebugInfo`. An example could be code linking
some system dylib and causing some routine to segfault on say invalid
pointer value, which should normally cause Zig to print an incomplete
stack trace anchored at the currently loaded image and backtrace all
the way back to the Zig binary with valid debug info. Currently, in
a situation like this we would trigger a panic within a panic.
This includes the latest changes from master branch with fixes to the C
backend that affect aarch64-windows which are necessary to build from
source on this target.
This allows using `zig ar` for `CMAKE_AR`. Unfortunately, it requires a
patch to CMakeLists.txt and cannot be done merely with flags to the
cmake line.
We definitely want a shared lock on a cache hit. Without this, we get a
deadlock when Zig is asked to compile the same C source file multiple
times as part of the same compilation.
This is a partial revert of 8ccb9a6ad327a4d7fbc321b33d4aa66a27a1f5ee.

These bugs were triggered in the C backend by aarch64-specific code in
os/windows.zig. Intentionally not updating zig1.wasm yet because of
upcoming changes and since aarch64-windows is not tested on master yet.
