Log:
[COFF] Process /EXPORT option in fastpath

Patch by Takuto Ikuta.

This patch reduces lld link time of chromium's blink_core.dll in
component build.

Total size of input argument in .directives become nearly 300MB in the
build and almost all its content are /EXPORT.

To reduce time of parsing too many /EXPORT option in the build, I
introduce fastpath for /EXPORT in ArgParser::parseDirectives.

On my desktop machine, 4 times stats of the link time are like below.
Improved around 20%.
