Overhauled llvm/clang docs builds. Closes PR6613.
NOTE: 2nd part changeset for cfe trunk to follow. *** PRE-PATCH ISSUES ADDRESSED - clang api docs fail build from objdir - clang/llvm api docs collide in install PREFIX/ - clang/llvm main docs collide in install - clang/llvm main docs have full of hard coded destination assumptions and make use of absolute root in static html files; namely CommandGuide tools hard codes a website destination for cross references and some html cross references assume website root paths *** IMPROVEMENTS - bumped Doxygen from 1.4.x -> 1.6.3 - splits llvm/clang docs into 'main' and 'api' (doxygen) build trees - provide consistent, reliable doc builds for both main+api docs - support buid vs. install vs. website intentions - support objdir builds - document targets with 'make help' - correct clean and uninstall operations - use recursive dir delete only where absolutely necessary - added call function fn.RMRF which safeguards against botched 'rm -rf'; if any target (or any variable is evaluated) which attempts to remove any dirs which match a hard-coded 'safelist', a verbose error will be printed and make will error-stop. git-svn-id: https://llvm.org/svn/llvm-project/llvm/trunk@103213 91177308-0d34-0410-b5e6-96231b3b80d8

+=head1 NAME
+
+llvm-as - LLVM assembler
+
+=head1 SYNOPSIS
+
+B<llvm-as> [I<options>] [I<filename>]
+
+=head1 DESCRIPTION
+
+B<llvm-as> is the LLVM assembler. It reads a file containing human-readable
+LLVM assembly language, translates it to LLVM bitcode, and writes the result
+into a file or to standard output.
+
+If F<filename> is omitted or is C<->, then B<llvm-as> reads its input from
+standard input.
+
+If an output file is not specified with the B<-o> option, then
+B<llvm-as> sends its output to a file or standard output by following
+these rules:
+
+=over
+
+=item *
+
+If the input is standard input, then the output is standard output.
+
+=item *
+
+If the input is a file that ends with C<.ll>, then the output file is of
+the same name, except that the suffix is changed to C<.bc>.
+
+=item *
+
+If the input is a file that does not end with the C<.ll> suffix, then the
+output file has the same name as the input file, except that the C<.bc>
+suffix is appended.
+
+=back
+
+=head1 OPTIONS
+
+=over
+
+=item B<-f>
+
+Enable binary output on terminals. Normally, B<llvm-as> will refuse to
+write raw bitcode output if the output stream is a terminal. With this option,
+B<llvm-as> will write raw bitcode regardless of the output device.
+
+=item B<-help>
+
+Print a summary of command line options.
+
+=item B<-o> F<filename>
+
+Specify the output file name. If F<filename> is C<->, then B<llvm-as>
+sends its output to standard output.
+
+=back
+
+=head1 EXIT STATUS
+
+If B<llvm-as> succeeds, it will exit with 0. Otherwise, if an error
+occurs, it will exit with a non-zero value.
