Make it possible to use online profile merging ("%m" mode) with
continuous sync ("%c" mode).

To implement this, the merged profile is locked in the runtime
initialization step and either a) filled out for the first time or b)
checked for compatibility. Then, the profile can simply be mmap()'d with
MAP_SHARED set. With the mmap() in place, counter updates from every
process which uses an image are mapped onto the same set of physical
pages assigned by the filesystem cache. After the mmap() is set up, the
profile is unlocked.

Depends on https://reviews.llvm.org/D68351.
