ADDLIB is called to add the contents of an archive to another archive. This is currently only available in llvm-ar and gnu-ar through the use of an MRI script. We propose adding a new modifier to the llvm-ar command line so workflows that require the ADDLIB functionality are not forced to use MRI scripts.

With the use of a new "L" modifier, archive files can treated in the manner above when using quick append.

"L" was chosen as a key letter only because it is not used by gnu-ar, any alternate suggestions would be appreciated.
