/// ------------------------------------------------------------------
/// The core of the Dwarf linking logic.
///
/// The generation of the dwarf information from the object files will be
/// driven by the selection of 'root DIEs', which are DIEs that
/// describe variables or functions that resolves to the corresponding
/// code section(and thus have entries in the Addresses map). All the debug
/// information that will be generated(the DIEs, but also the line
/// tables, ranges, ...) is derived from that set of root DIEs.
///
/// The root DIEs are identified because they contain relocations that
/// points to code section(the low_pc for a function, the location for
/// a variable). These relocations are gathered as a very first step
/// when we start processing a object file by AddressesMap.
///
/// The overall linking process looks like this:
///
/// parrallel_for_each(ObjectFile) {
///   for_each (Compile Unit) {
///     1. Load Clang modules.
///   }
///
///   parrallel_for_each(Compile Unit) {
///     1. Load input DWARF for Compile Unit.
///     2. Report warnings for Clang modules.
///     3. Analyze live DIEs and type names(if ODR deduplication is requested).
///     4. Clone DIEs(Generate output DIEs and resulting DWARF tables).
///        The result is in an OutDebugInfoBytes, which is an ELF file
///        containing DWARF tables corresponding to the current compile unit.
///     5. Cleanup Input and Output DIEs.
///   }
///
///   Deallocate loaded Object file.
/// }
///
/// if (ODR deduplication is requested)
///   Generate an artificial compilation unit ("Type Table": used to partially
///   generate DIEs at the clone stage).
///
/// for_each (ObjectFile) {
///   for_each (Compile Unit) {
///     1. Set offsets to Compile Units DWARF tables.
///     2. Sort offsets/attributes/patches to have a predictable result.
///     3. Patch size/offsets fields.
///     4. Generate index tables.
///     5. Move DWARF tables of compile units into the resulting file.
///   }
/// }
///
/// Every compile unit is processed separately, visited only once
/// (except case inter-CU references exist), and used data is freed
/// after the compile unit is processed. The resulting file is glued together
/// from the generated debug tables which correspond to separate compile units.
///
/// Handling inter-CU references: inter-CU references are hard to process
/// using only one pass. f.e. if CU1 references CU100 and CU100 references
/// CU1, we could not finish handling of CU1 until we finished CU100.
/// Thus we either need to load all CUs into the memory, either load CUs several
/// times. This implementation loads inter-connected CU into memory at the first
/// pass and processes them at the second pass.
///
/// ODR deduplication: Artificial compilation unit will be constructed to keep
/// type dies. All types are moved into that compilation unit. Type's references
/// are patched so that they point to the corresponding types from artificial
/// compilation unit. All partial type definitions would be merged into single
/// type definition.
