[llvm-objdump][XCOFF] Use symbol index+symbol name + storage mapping class as label for -D
SUMMARY: For the llvm-objdump -D, the symbol name is used as a label in the disassembly for the specific address (when a symbol address is equal to the virtual address in the dump). In XCOFF, multiple symbols may have the same name, being differentiated by their storage mapping class. It is helpful to print the QualName and not just the name when forming the output label for a csect symbol. The symbol index further removes any ambiguity caused by duplicate names. To maintain compatibility with the binutils objdump, the XCOFF-specific --symbol-description option is added to enable the enhanced format.
