Adds `-ftime-trace` option to clang that produces Chrome `chrome://tracing` compatible JSON profiling output dumps.
This change adds hierarchical "time trace" profiling blocks that can be visualized in Chrome, in a "flame chart" style. Each profiling block can have a "detail" string that for example indicates the file being processed, template name being instantiated, function being optimized etc.
