Right now in case of LTO the section is not emited:

  $ cat test.c
  void __attribute__((optnone)) bar()
  {
  }
  void __attribute__((optnone)) foo()
  {
          bar();
  }
  int main()
  {
          foo();
  }
  
  $ clang -flto=thin -gdwarf-aranges -g -O3 test.c
  $ eu-readelf -waranges a.out  | fgrep -c -e foo -e bar
  0
  
  $ clang -gdwarf-aranges -g -O3 test.c
  $ eu-readelf -waranges a.out  | fgrep -c -e foo -e bar
  2

Fix this by passing explicitly -mllvm -generate-arange-section.

But as mentioned by @dblaikie:

  the better solution would be to encode this in IR metadata
  (DICompileUnit) if it's reasonable to respect this option on a per-CU
  basis (which it probably is, though that'd be a bit of backend work) -
  or to set it as IR global metadata (like how the DWARF version is
  encoded - probably using the same IR linker merging strategy, of
  choosing the highest value (so if any module has aranges, then a linked
  module has aranges too - even for the CUs that had it turned off) if
  it's really not feasible to support on a per-CU basis) but probably
  OK-enough, given that aranges is hopefully on the way out & not worth
  all the work of the deeper fix

This is the resubmit, previous submission [1], got reverted, due to test
failures, that had been addressed in [2] and [3].
