Basically, compiler-rt contains the only runtime libraries we ship with
Clang.  The sanitizers are runtime libraries shipped with clang (they have
some version dependence), so they went in compiler-rt.  Now they are
starting to feel much larger than compiler-rt, so perhaps they should be
split out.

Or we can leave them there and solve your ARM build problems a different
way.
