This is in preparation for the LLVM 4 upgrade (which gets more strict
about e.g., return false in xcbuild itself) and also for using xcbuild
more extensively in the Darwin stdenv bootstrap process, which is why I
killed the unnecessary gcc dependency in the toolchain. llvm-cov pretends
to be gcov anyway, so we're fine.
* All projects are available under NCSA license,
other than dragonegg.
* "Runtime" projects are dual-licensed under
both NCSA and MIT:
libc++, libc++abi, compiler-rt
* I don't mention MIT for compiler-rt as
we only build it as part of LLVM.
Modern compiler will issue a following error whenever '#include <string>'
is done:

This happens because modern clang is more strict about checking
exception specification for forward declaration and definition.

This reinstates the libSystem selective symbol export machinery we used
to have, but locks it to the symbols that were present in 10.11 and skips
the actual compiled code we put into that library in favor of the system
initialization code. That should make it more stable and less likely to
do weird stuff than the last time we did this.
The most complex problems were from dealing with switches reverted in
the meantime (gcc5, gmp6, ncurses6).
It's likely that darwin is (still) broken nontrivially.
Package changes from 3.6:
- CMake exports patch no longer necessary
- Cosmetic purity patch fix
- Build libc++ with private libc++abi headers visible from sources
- Work around bugs in lldb's configure scripts
