[MemProf] Extend MemProfUse pass to make use of data access profiles to partition data (#151238)

https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/commit/f3f28323adbb9d01372d81b4c78ed94683e58757
introduces the data access profile format as a payload inside
[memprof](https://llvm.org/docs/InstrProfileFormat.html#memprof-profile-data),
and the MemProfUse pass reads the memprof payload.

This change extends the MemProfUse pass to read the data access profiles
to annotate global variables' section prefix.
1. If there are samples for a global variable, it's annotated as hot.
2. If a global variable is seen in the profiled binary file but doesn't
have access samples, it's annotated as unlikely.

Introduce an option `annotate-static-data-prefix` to flag-gate the
global-variable annotation path, and make it false by default.
https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/155337 is the (WIP) draft
change to "reconcile" two sources of hotness.

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

Consult the Getting Started with LLVM page for information on building and running LLVM.
