This extracts the C-string `argv`-like building routine to a more
broadly reusable location. It also sinks the verbose logging logic out
of it and into the relevant runners. In turn, it simplifies the verbose
logging logic significantly.
The biggest functional change is removing the implicit synthesis of a
tool's `-v` verbose flag from the presence of a `vlog` stream. I thought
this would be helpful, but in practice of debugging these layers it has
been more of a hindrance than a help -- I pretty often only want verbose
logging on one side or the other, and we have ways of explicitly passing
a `-v` flag to the underlying tools already. I think my instinct to do
this was just wrong, so rip it out and simplify.
This does add an unused feature -- prepending a prefix of arguments
while building the C-string variant. This isn't used in this PR but will
be used in subsequent PRs and it seemed more disruptive to undo that
logic and then re-do it in a later PR. Let me know if it's too confusing
here.

This adds support for most of the remaining LLVM command line tools
using a generic, generated wrapper. The subcommand interface for these
is (much) less interesting than our other subcommands, but it gives us
a uniform and consistent layer.
Note that I structured these as nested sub-sub-commands below an `llvm`
subcommand because of an expectation that we will want to add more, and
ones that don't use this generic layer. Some concrete future work:
- Add the `opt` and `llc` tools as subcommands for easier debugging and
experimentation with LLVM IR output from Carbon's toolchain.
- Potentially sink `lld` below the `llvm` layer given that it has
significantly less user visibility than commands like `clang`.
Unfortunately, the current driver subcommand APIs make nested
subcommands awkward. I've added a somewhat rough hack here to let the
LLVM tools go in, but there are some TODOs that I want to address in
a follow-up that works to adjust the structure of this code to be more
conducive to nesting like this.
Depends on #5048 -- only the last commit should be reviewed here.
