           Summary: In Dwarf output, source path not recognized in gdb if
                    built from parallel folder hierarchy

This bug was detected when cross compiling for linux on windows, but it
probably is reproduceable from linux directly.


It happens when we build a file from a subdirectory paallel to that file, the
output obj file is not recognized directly by gdb.


Repro (from the zip file attached):
1) on windows, run build.bat
2) now under linux, using the 2 output obj files:

$ gdb main.obj
GNU gdb (GDB) 8.3
(etc... skipping gdb the header)
Reading symbols from main.obj...
(gdb) b main.cpp:1
Breakpoint 1 at 0xd: file source\sourcesubdir/main.cpp, line 3.
(gdb) quit
$
$ gdb mainsub.obj
GNU gdb (GDB) 8.3
(etc... skipping gdb the header)
Reading symbols from mainsub.obj...
(gdb) b main.cpp:1
No source file named main.cpp.         <=== PROBLEM HERE
Make breakpoint pending on future shared library load? (y or [n])
(gdb)
(gdb) b source\sourcesubdir\main.cpp:1
Breakpoint 1 at 0xd: file
D:\saudi\clang_bug_final/source\sourcesubdir\main.cpp, line 3.


Note 1:
build.bat runs the same command line using absolute paths from 2 different
folder : 
a) a folder that is an ancestor of the cpp file
b) a folder that is parallel to the hierarchy of the cpp file (bug scenario)


Note 2:
The problem seems to be in MCDwarf.cpp, in CDwarfLineTableHeader::tryGetFile.
The code paths change between the 2 scenarios, as Directory == CompilationDir
on one (the one that works) and not on the other.

Note 3:
Is this maybe somewhat related with bug 39503?

Note 4:
The bug doesn't appear when trying with g++
