ELF: Make --reproduce to produce a response file.
The aim of this patch is to make it easy to re-run the command without updating paths in the command line. Here is a use case. Assume that Alice is having an issue with lld and is reporting the issue to developer Bob. Alice's current directly is /home/alice/work and her command line is "ld.lld -o foo foo.o ../bar.o". She adds "--reproduce repro" to the command line and re-run. Then the following text will be produced as response.txt (notice that the paths are rewritten so that they are relative to /home/alice/work/repro.) -o home/alice/work/foo home/alice/work/foo.o home/alice/bar.o The command also produces the following files by copying inputs. /home/alice/repro/home/alice/work/foo.o /home/alice/repro/home/alice/bar.o Alice zips the directory and send it to Bob. Bob get an archive from Alice and extract it to his home directory as /home/bob/repro. Now his directory have the following files. /home/bob/repro/response.txt /home/bob/repro/home/alice/work/foo.o /home/bob/repro/home/alice/bar.o Bob then re-run the command with these files by the following commands. cd /home/bob/repro ld.lld @response.txt This command will run the linker with the same command line options and the same input files as Alice's, so it is very likely that Bob will see the same issue as Alice saw.
