Linker plugin_object_p opens the IR archive for each IR archive member.
For GCC plugin, plugin_object_p closes the archive file descriptor. But
for LLVM plugin, the archive file descriptor remains open. If there are
3000 IR archive members, there are 3000 file descriptors for them. We
can run out of file descriptors petty easily.
1. Add archive_plugin_fd and archive_plugin_fd_open_count to bfd so that
we can cache and reuse the IR archive file descriptor for all IR archive
members in the archive.
2. Add bfd_plugin_close_file_descriptor to properly close the IR archive
file descriptor.
