Add support for the 's' operation to llvm-ar.

If no other operation is specified, 's' becomes an operation instead of an
modifier. The s operation just creates a symbol table. It is the same as
running ranlib.

We assume the archive was created by a sane ar (like llvm-ar or gnu ar) and
if the symbol table is present, then it is current. We use that to optimize
the most common case: a broken build system that thinks it has to run ranlib.
