Fix autoprofiledbootstrap build
Checks
Commit Message
1. Fix gcov version
2. Don't attempt to create an autoprofile file for cc1 since cc1plus
(not cc1) is not invoked when building cc1
3. Fix documentation typo
Tested on x86_64-pc-linux-gnu.

Just to be 100% sure. While the compiler is built with cc1plus, various
runtime libraries are still build with the C compiler and thus would use
cc1. AFAICT it looks like we don't try to build the runtime libraries
to get any data about the behavior of the C compiler. Can you confirm?
Assuming that's correct, this is fine for the trunk.
Thanks,
Jeff
I took another look at this. We actually collect perf data when building the libraries. So, we have ./prev-gcc/perf.data, ./prev-libcpp/perf.data, ./prev-libiberty/perf.data, etc. But when creating gcov data for -fauto-profile build of cc1plus or cc1 we only use ./prev-gcc/perf.data . So, a better solution would be either having a single perf.data for all builds (gcc and libraries) or merging perf.data files before attempting autostagefeedback. What would you recommend?
Thanks,
Eugene

ISTM that if neither approach loses data, then they're functionally
equivalent -- meaning that we can select whichever is easier to wire
into our build system.
A single perf.data might serialize the build. So perhaps separate, then
merge right before autostagefeedback.
But I'm willing to go with whatever you think is best.

Hi Jeff,
I revived profile_merger tool in http://github.com/google/autofdo and re-worked the patch to merge profiles for compiling the libraries.
Please take a look at the attached patch.
Thanks,
Eugene
