[MC] Replace fragment ilist with singly-linked lists
Fragments are allocated with `operator new` and stored in an ilist with Prev/Next/Parent pointers. A more efficient representation would be an array of fragments without the overhead of Prev/Next pointers. As the first step, replace ilist with singly-linked lists. * `getPrevNode` uses have been eliminated by previous changes. * The last use of the `Prev` pointer remains: for each subsection, there is an insertion point and the current insertion point is stored at `CurInsertionPoint`. * `HexagonAsmBackend::finishLayout` needs a backward iterator. Save all fragments within `Frags`. Hexagon programs are usually small, and the performance does not matter that much. To eliminate `Prev`, change the subsection representation to singly-linked lists for subsections and a pointer to the active singly-linked list. The fragments from all subsections will be chained together at layout time. Since fragment lists are disconnected before layout time, we can remove `MCFragment::SubsectionNumber` (https://reviews.llvm.org/D69411). The current implementation of `AttemptToFoldSymbolOffsetDifference` requires future improvement for robustness. Pull Request: https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/pull/95077
