[XRay] Make xray_instr_map compatible with Mach-O
The `__DATA,xray_instr_map` section has label differences like
`.quad Lxray_sled_0-Ltmp0` that is represented as a pair of UNSIGNED and SUBTRACTOR relocations.
LLVM integrated assembler attempts to rewrite A-B into A-B'+offset where B' can
be included in the symbol table. B' is called an atom and should be a
non-temporary symbol in the same section. However, since `xray_instr_map` does
not define a non-temporary symbol, the SUBTRACTOR relocation will have no
associated symbol, and its `r_extern` value will be 0. Therefore, we will see
linker errors like:
error: SUBTRACTOR relocation must be extern at offset 0 of __DATA,xray_instr_map in a.o
To fix this issue, we need to define a non-temporary symbol in the section. We
can accomplish this by renaming `Lxray_sleds_start0` to `lxray_sleds_start0`
("L" to "l").
`lxray_sleds_start0` serves as the atom for this dead-strippable subsection.
With the `S_ATTR_LIVE_SUPPORT` attribute, `ld -dead_strip` will retain
subsections that reference live functions.
Special thanks to Oleksii Lozovskyi for reporting the issue and providing
initial analysis.
