This commit is important for several reasons:
1. Finally, LLVM update from 8.0.0 to 11.1.0
At the time of writing, LLVM 12.0.0 already came out, but we need to be
compatible with LLVM from Xcode 12.5, so that's why we stick to a bit
older version of LLVM.
2. These LLVM distributions are built with tools/llvm_builder/package.py
We finally managed to introduce an explicit process of building our LLVM
distributions, so we will be able to updated them more frequently and
adapt to our needs.
3. Native Windows LLVM instead of MinGW
Last but not least, we now use native Windows LLVM distribution. While
it might be harder to use (no more posix everywhere), simpler build
process (building msys2 is not that easy) and no need for MinGW-specific
patches makes such distribution way more convenient.
Provide a stable environment for building LLVM for Linux
by using Docker. Note that the base image is Ubuntu 16.04,
so after LLVM update building Kotlin/Native on Linux will
require glibc 2.23 or higher.
