Add IR Profile-Guided Optimization (IR PGO) support to the Flang compiler (#136098)
This patch implements IR-based Profile-Guided Optimization support in
Flang through the following flags:
- `-fprofile-generate` for instrumentation-based profile generation
- `-fprofile-use=<dir>/file` for profile-guided optimization
Resolves#74216 (implements IR PGO support phase)
**Key changes:**
- Frontend flag handling aligned with Clang/GCC semantics
- Instrumentation hooks into LLVM PGO infrastructure
- LIT tests verifying:
- Instrumentation metadata generation
- Profile loading from specified path
- Branch weight attribution (IR checks)
**Tests:**
- Added gcc-flag-compatibility.f90 test module verifying:
- Flag parsing boundary conditions
- IR-level profile annotation consistency
- Profile input path normalization rules
- SPEC2006 benchmark results will be shared in comments
For details on LLVM's PGO framework, refer to [Clang PGO
Documentation](https://clang.llvm.org/docs/UsersManual.html#profile-guided-optimization).
This implementation was developed by [XSCC Compiler
Team](https://github.com/orgs/OpenXiangShan/teams/xscc).
