This tracks our progress implementing the OpenSSF Best Practices for
LLVM.

The current CI badge is currently in libc++ documentation. This does not
seem the right place:
- The typical location on GitHub is on the main README.
- The documentation is shipped as part of the release:
- This link does not work in off-line mode. Currently our documentation
works in off-line mode.
- The status in the release documentation does not reflect the status of
the shipped library. So users looking at it may see a red status and get
confused.

This moves the badge to the README.

Closes #69736

The main README.md should probably be kept pretty short and be used to
point new-comers to the most essential ways to get started on or get
involved with LLVM.

Therefore, this patch removes a pointer to IRC (not used very much these
days), and does add pointers to office hours and online sync-ups.

Funnel fetching and building LLVM instructions into GettingStarted.

Modernize the build steps a little.

Remove comments saying CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE defaults to Debug as that's not true anymore (must explicitly pass it).

Fixed whitespace and punctuation issues, added a name to a link, and
fixed a typo.

We are moving away from building the runtimes with LLVM_ENABLE_PROJECTS,
however the documentation was largely outdated. This commit updates all
the documentation I could find to use LLVM_ENABLE_RUNTIMES instead of
LLVM_ENABLE_PROJECTS for building runtimes.

Note that in the near future, libcxx, libcxxabi and libunwind will stop
supporting being built with LLVM_ENABLE_PROJECTS altogether. I don't know
what the plans are for other runtimes like libc, openmp and compiler-rt,
so I didn't make any changes to the documentation that would imply
something for those projects.

Once this lands, I will also cherry-pick this on the release/14.x branch
to make sure that LLVM's documentation is up-to-date and reflects what
we intend to support in the future.

This commit primarily checks that my newly acquired commit access works.
But this is also a real spelling fix.

The updated list is based on the output of
cmake -G Ninja -S llvm -B build -DLLVM_ENABLE_PROJECTS='foo'.

Move debuginfo-test into a subdirectory of a new top-level directory,
called cross-project-tests. The new name replaces "debuginfo-test" as an
LLVM project enabled via LLVM_ENABLE_PROJECTS.

Now that llvm's minimum version is 3.13.4 anyway and `-S` is
introduced in the same version[1], let's use this little
time saving option to simplify the build instructions.

This reverts commit 9d54b166.

This reverts commit ab31797e.

Also, some spelling fixes.  Test commit.

As discussed on llvm-dev [1], this patch adds a brief CONTRIBUTING.md to
the top-level of the repo, with a pointer to Contributing.html. This
should make it easier to discover the contributing information and also
be highlighted in the Github UI.

It also updates README.md to link to Contributing.html.

As GitHub is the canonical LLVM repository now, embrace GitHub's way of displaying basic build instructions in the top-level readme.md.

Per llvm.org: "The name "LLVM" itself is not an acronym; it is the full
name of the project."
