Aggregate errors from llvm-dwarfdump --verify (#79648)

The amount and format of output from `llvm-dwarfdump --verify` makes it
quite difficult to know if a change to a tool that produces or modifies
DWARF is causing new problems, or is fixing existing problems. This diff
adds a categorized summary of issues found by the DWARF verifier, on by
default, at the bottom of the error output.

The change includes a new `--error-display` option with 4 settings:

* `--error-display=quiet`: Only display if errors occurred, but no
details or summary are printed.
* `--error-display=summary`: Only display the aggregated summary of
errors with no error detail.
* `--error-display=details`: Only display the detailed error messages
with no summary (previous behavior)
* `--error-display=full`: Display both the detailed error messages and
the aggregated summary of errors (the default)

I changed a handful of tests that were failing due to new output, adding
the flag to use the old behavior for all but a couple. For those two I
added the new aggregated output to the expected output of the test.

The `OutputCategoryAggregator` is a pretty simple little class that
@clayborg suggested to allow code to only be run to dump detail if it's
enabled, while still collating counts of the category. Knowing that the
lambda passed in is only conditionally executed is pretty important
(handling errors has to be done *outside* the lambda). I'm happy to move
this somewhere else (and change/improve it) to be more broadly useful if
folks would like.

The LLVM Compiler Infrastructure

OpenSSF Scorecard OpenSSF Best Practices libc++

Welcome to the LLVM project!

This repository contains the source code for LLVM, a toolkit for the construction of highly optimized compilers, optimizers, and run-time environments.

The LLVM project has multiple components. The core of the project is itself called “LLVM”. This contains all of the tools, libraries, and header files needed to process intermediate representations and convert them into object files. Tools include an assembler, disassembler, bitcode analyzer, and bitcode optimizer.

C-like languages use the Clang frontend. This component compiles C, C++, Objective-C, and Objective-C++ code into LLVM bitcode -- and from there into object files, using LLVM.

Other components include: the libc++ C++ standard library, the LLD linker, and more.

Getting the Source Code and Building LLVM
