[LLD][ELF][Windows] Allow LLD to overwrite existing output files that are in use

On Windows co-operative programs can be expected to open LLD's
output in FILE_SHARE_DELETE mode. This allows us to delete the
file (by moving it to a temporary filename and then deleting
it) so that we can link another output file that overwrites
the existing file, even if the current file is in use.

A similar strategy is documented here:

[Support] Move LLD's parallel algorithm wrappers to support

Essentially takes the lld/Common/Threads.h wrappers and moves them to
the llvm/Support/Paralle.h algorithm header.

The changes are:
- Remove policy parameter, since all clients use `par`.
- Rename the methods to `parallelSort` etc to match LLVM style, since
they are no longer C++17 pstl compatible.
- Move algorithms from llvm::parallel:: to llvm::, since they have
"parallel" in the name and are no longer overloads of the regular
algorithms.
- Add range overloads
- Use the sequential algorithm directly when 1 thread is requested
(skips task grouping)
- Fix the index type of parallelForEachN to size_t. Nobody in LLVM was
using any other parameter, and it made overload resolution hard for
for_each_n(par, 0, foo.size(), ...) because 0 is int, not size_t.

Remove Threads.h and update LLD for that.

This is a prerequisite for parallel public symbol processing in the PDB
library, which is in LLVM.

[lld][COFF][ELF][WebAssembly] Replace --[no-]threads /threads[:no] with --threads={1,2,...} /threads:{1,2,...}

[lld][COFF][ELF][WebAssembly] Replace --[no-]threads /threads[:no] with --threads={1,2,...} /threads:{1,2,...}

--no-threads is a name copied from gold.
gold has --no-thread, --thread-count and several other --thread-count-*.

There are needs to customize the number of threads (running several lld
processes concurrently or customizing the number of LTO threads).
Having a single --threads=N is a straightforward replacement of gold's
--no-threads + --thread-count.

--no-threads is used rarely. So just delete --no-threads instead of
keeping it for compatibility for a while.

If --threads= is specified (ELF,wasm; COFF /threads: is similar),
--thinlto-jobs= defaults to --threads=,
otherwise all available hardware threads are used.

There is currently no way to override a --threads={1,2,...}. It is still
a debate whether we should use --threads=all.
