Adds a convenient way to enable PGO+LTO on Julia and LLVM together:
1. `cd contrib/pgo-lto`
2. `make -j$(nproc) stage1`
3. `make clean-profiles`
4. `./stage1.build/julia -O3 -e 'using Pkg;
Pkg.add("LoopVectorization"); Pkg.test("LoopVectorization")'`
5. `make -j$(nproc) stage2`

This results quite often in spectacular speedups for time to first X as
it reduces the time spent in LLVM optimization passes by 25 or even 30%.
Example 1:
```julia
using LoopVectorization
function f!(a, b)
@turbo for i in eachindex(a)
a[i] *= b[i]
end
return a
end
f!(rand(1), rand(1))
```
```console
$ time ./julia -O3 lv.jl
```
Without PGO+LTO: 14.801s
With PGO+LTO: 11.978s (-19%)
Example 2:
```console
$ time ./julia -e 'using Pkg; Pkg.test("Unitful");'
```
Without PGO+LTO: 1m47.688s
With PGO+LTO: 1m35.704s (-11%)
Example 3 (taken from issue #45395, which is almost only LLVM):
```console
$ JULIA_LLVM_ARGS=-time-passes ./julia script-45395.jl
```
Without PGO+LTO:
```

Or -28% time spent in LLVM.
`perf` reports show this is mostly fewer instructions and reduction in
icache misses.

Finally there's a significant reduction in binary sizes. For libLLVM.so:
```
79M usr/lib/libLLVM-13jl.so (before)
67M usr/lib/libLLVM-13jl.so (after)
```
And it can be reduced by another 2MB with `--icf=safe` when using LLD as
a linker anyways.
- [x] Two out-of-source builds would be better than a single in-source
build, so that it's easier to find good profile data
