[NFC][DebugInfo][DWARF] Create new low-level dwarf library (#145081)
This is the culmination of a series of changes described in [1].
Although somewhat large by line count, it is almost entirely mechanical,
creating a new library in DebugInfo/DWARF/LowLevel. This new library has
very minimal dependencies, allowing it to be used from more places than
the normal DebugInfo/DWARF library--in particular from MC.
I am happy to put it in another location, or to structure it differently
if that makes sense. Some have suggested in BinaryFormat, but it is not
a great fit there. But if that makes more sense to the reviewers, I can
do that.
Another possibility would be to use pass-through headers to allow
clients who don't care to depend only on DebugInfo/DWARF. This would be
a much less invasive change, and perhaps easier for clients. But also a
system that hides details.
Either way, I'm open.

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.
Consult the Getting Started with LLVM page for information on building and running LLVM.
For information on how to contribute to the LLVM project, please take a look at the Contributing to LLVM guide.

The LLVM project has adopted a code of conduct for participants to all modes of communication within the project.
