[docs][llvm-profdata] Prefer double-dash long options

To match the `--help` message and most other utilities.

While here, change `option:: -output=output` to `option:: --output=<output>` and
omit the value name for the short options (convention of other utilities).

-.. option:: -output=output, -o=output
+.. option:: --output=<output>, -o
 
  Specify the output file name.  *Output* cannot be ``-`` as the resulting
  indexed profile data can't be written to standard output.
 
-.. option:: -weighted-input=weight,filename
+.. option:: --weighted-input=<weight,filename>
 
  Specify an input file name along with a weight. The profile counts of the
  supplied ``filename`` will be scaled (multiplied) by the supplied
  ``weight``, where ``weight`` is a decimal integer >= 1.
  Input files specified without using this option are assigned a default
  weight of 1. Examples are shown below.
 
-.. option:: -input-files=path, -f=path

   be of the form <filename> or <weight>,<filename>.

-.. option:: -instr (default)
+.. option:: --instr (default)
 
  Specify that the input profile is an instrumentation-based profile.
 
-.. option:: -sample
+.. option:: --sample
 
  Specify that the input profile is a sample-based profile.
 
  The format of the generated file can be generated in one of three ways:
 
- .. option:: -binary (default)
+ .. option:: --binary (default)
 
  Emit the profile using a binary encoding. For instrumentation-based profile
  the output format is the indexed binary format.
 
- .. option:: -extbinary
+ .. option:: --extbinary
 
  Emit the profile using an extensible binary encoding. This option can only
  be used with sample-based profile. The extensible binary encoding can be
  more compact with compression enabled and can be loaded faster than the
  default binary encoding.
 
- .. option:: -text
+ .. option:: --text
 
  Emit the profile in text mode. This option can also be used with both
  sample-based and instrumentation-based profile. When this option is used
  the profile will be dumped in the text format that is parsable by the profile
  reader.
 
- .. option:: -gcc
+ .. option:: --gcc
 
  Emit the profile using GCC's gcov format (Not yet supported).
 
-.. option:: -sparse[=true|false]
+.. option:: --sparse[=true|false]
 
  Do not emit function records with 0 execution count. Can only be used in
  conjunction with -instr. Defaults to false, since it can inhibit compiler
  optimization during PGO.
 
-.. option:: -num-threads=N, -j=N
+.. option:: --num-threads=<N>, -j
 
  Use N threads to perform profile merging. When N=0, llvm-profdata auto-detects
  an appropriate number of threads to use. This is the default.
 
-.. option:: -failure-mode=[any|all]
+.. option:: --failure-mode=[any|all]
 
  Set the failure mode. There are two options: 'any' causes the merge command to
  fail if any profiles are invalid, and 'all' causes the merge command to fail
  only if all profiles are invalid. If 'all' is set, information from any
  invalid profiles is excluded from the final merged product. The default
  failure mode is 'any'.
 
-.. option:: -prof-sym-list=path
+.. option:: --prof-sym-list=<path>
 
  Specify a file which contains a list of symbols to generate profile symbol
  list in the profile. This option can only be used with sample-based profile
  in extbinary format. The entries in this file are newline-separated.
 
-.. option:: -compress-all-sections=[true|false]
+.. option:: --compress-all-sections=[true|false]
 
  Compress all sections when writing the profile. This option can only be used
  with sample-based profile in extbinary format.
 
-.. option:: -use-md5=[true|false]
+.. option:: --use-md5=[true|false]
 
  Use MD5 to represent string in name table when writing the profile.
  This option can only be used with sample-based profile in extbinary format.
 
-.. option:: -gen-partial-profile=[true|false]
+.. option:: --gen-partial-profile=[true|false]
 
  Mark the profile to be a partial profile which only provides partial profile
  coverage for the optimized target. This option can only be used with
  sample-based profile in extbinary format.
 
-.. option:: -supplement-instr-with-sample=path_to_sample_profile
+.. option:: --supplement-instr-with-sample=<file>
 
  Supplement an instrumentation profile with sample profile. The sample profile
  is the input of the flag. Output will be in instrumentation format (only works
  with -instr).
 
-.. option:: -zero-counter-threshold=threshold_float_number
+.. option:: --zero-counter-threshold=<float>
 
  For the function which is cold in instr profile but hot in sample profile, if
  the ratio of the number of zero counters divided by the the total number of
  counters is above the threshold, the profile of the function will be regarded
  as being harmful for performance and will be dropped.
 
-.. option:: -instr-prof-cold-threshold=threshold_int_number
+.. option:: --instr-prof-cold-threshold=<int>
 
  User specified cold threshold for instr profile which will override the cold
  threshold got from profile summary.
 
-.. option:: -suppl-min-size-threshold=threshold_int_number
+.. option:: --suppl-min-size-threshold=<int>
 
  If the size of a function is smaller than the threshold, assume it can be
  inlined by PGO early inliner and it will not be adjusted based on sample
  profile.
 
-.. option:: -debug-info=path
+.. option:: --debug-info=<path>
 
  Specify the executable or ``.dSYM`` that contains debug info for the raw profile.
