Remove broken links in source tarball

Before it wasn’t possible to pass -DTEST_SUITE_SUBDIRS=CTMark to cmake
when configuring the llvm-test-suite:

— Adding directory CTMark
CMake Error at CTMark/CMakeLists.txt:1 (add_subdirectory):
add_subdirectory given source “7zip” which is not an existing directory.

CMake Error at CTMark/CMakeLists.txt:5 (add_subdirectory):
add_subdirectory given source “lencod” which is not an existing directory.

The llvm-test-suite command script pkg_test_suite.sh removes
directories with BAD or unreviewed licenses. Currently this leaves at
least two directories in a broken state:

/usr/share/llvm-test-suite/CTMark/7zip -> ../MultiSource/Benchmarks/7zip
/usr/share/llvm-test-suite/CTMark/lencod -> ../MultiSource/Applications/JM/lencod

In both cases the link target is non-existent.

Therefore I find any broken symbolic links, remove them and adapt the
CMakeLists.txt to not have the add_subdirectory(broken_link) entry in
it. Here’s an excerpt of what the pkg_test_suite.sh script shows when
running as a proof of the work it does now.

Multiple Vulnerabilities in Google Chrome Could Allow for Arbitrary Code Execution

Read Time:28 Second

Multiple vulnerabilities have been discovered in Google Chrome, the most severe of which could allow for arbitrary code execution. Successful exploitation of the most severe of these vulnerabilities could allow for arbitrary code execution in the context of the logged on user. Depending on the privileges associated with the user an attacker could then install programs; view, change, or delete data; or create new accounts with full user rights. Users whose accounts are configured to have fewer user rights on the system could be less impacted than those who operate with administrative user rights.
