// This file contains data definitions and a reader and builder for a symbol
// table for LLVM IR. Its purpose is to allow linkers and other consumers of
// bitcode files to efficiently read the symbol table for symbol resolution
// purposes without needing to construct a module in memory.
//
// As with most object files the symbol table has two parts: the symbol table
// itself and a string table which is referenced by the symbol table.
//
// A symbol table corresponds to a single bitcode file, which may consist of
// multiple modules, so symbol tables may likewise contain symbols for multiple
// modules.
