[PATCH] D96035: [dsymutil][DWARFlinker] implement separate multi-thread processing for compile units.

> probably, we would like to use both dwarflinkers with dsymutil and dwarfutil. Thus, we do not want to name tools in the option. How about these variants:

How about:

  --linker=apple
  --linker=llvm

The "apple" would be the classic Apple linker with all of its compatability
The new "llvm" would be the new linker with the better type uniquing + other features that will get added. We would need these described in the option help text.

Any multi-threaded options should be separate options if they are not already covered by existing options.

Do we have the ability to change how types are emitted? Like, can we use the "classic" linker with new type uniquing options ("with-joined-types" or "experimental")? I am trying to figure out the three options you specified above
