*	scripts/sorttable: Implement build-time ORC unwind table sorting	Shile Zhang	2019-12-13	1	-5/+175
\| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \| \|	The ORC unwinder has two tables: .orc_unwind_ip and .orc_unwind, which need to be sorted for binary search. Previously this sorting was done during bootup. Sort them at build time to speed up booting. Add the ORC tables sorting in a parallel build process to speed up the build.

*	scripts/sorttable: Rename 'sortextable' to 'sorttable'	Shile Zhang	2019-12-13	1	-0/+210
	Use a more generic name for additional table sorting usecases, such as the upcoming ORC table sorting feature. This tool is not tied to exception table sorting anymore. No functional changes intended.
