6d111cbf61 Clarify that lld package provides unwrapped lld
lld package provides an unwrapped lld. It doesn't always work on NixOS
(eg, it doesn't set rpath), and so dosen't always work.

What one should be using instead is the `lld` from
`llvmPackages.bintools` package. This super counterintutive.

One incremental step we can take here is to clarify that the `lld`
package is unrwapped -- right now, it looks like 100% legit thing one
should be using!

e830db4320 llvmPackages: Fix more inconsistencies
The main thing was using `llvm_meta` in all versions.

Secondarily:

 - libunwindx7: Forgot to split outputs

 - libcxx{,abi} 12: Forgot to apply output-splitting patches.

 - simplify `useLLVM` stdenv-switching logic.

 - openmp always gets its own directory

7869d16545 llvmPackages: Multuple outputs for everythting
Also begin to start work on cross compilation, though that will have to
be finished later.

The patches are based on the first version of
https://reviews.llvm.org/D99484. It's very annoying to do the
back-porting but the review has uncovered nothing super major so I'm
fine sticking with what I've got.

Beyond making the outputs work, I also strove to re-sync the packages,
as they have been drifting pointlessly apart for some time.

Other misc notes, highly incomplete

- lvm-config-native and llvm-config are put in `dev` because they are
  tools just for build time.

- Clang no longer has an lld dep. That was introduced in
  db29857eb3, but if clang needs help
  finding lld when it is used we should just pass it flags / put in the
  resource dir. Providing it at build time increases critical path
  length for no good reason.

----

A note on `nativeCC`:

`stdenv` takes tools from the previous stage, so:

1. `pkgsBuildBuild`: `(?1, x, x)`
2. `pkgsBuildBuild.stdenv.cc`: `(?0, ?1, x)`

while:

1. `pkgsBuildBuild`: `(?1, x, x)`
2. `pkgsBuildBuild.targetPackages`: `(x, x, ?2)`
3. `pkgsBuildBuild.targetPackages.stdenv.cc`: `(?1, x, x)`

19a974945b llvmPackages: Organize files
Always do pkg/default.nix not pkg.nix; use directories to avoid
prefixing patches and other files.
