The personality routine currently lives in the LandingPadInst.
This isn't desirable because:
- All LandingPadInsts in the same function must have the same
personality routine. This means that each LandingPadInst beyond the
first has an operand which produces no additional information.
- There is ongoing work to introduce EH IR constructs other than
LandingPadInst. Moving the personality routine off of any one
particular Instruction and onto the parent function seems a lot better
than have N different places a personality function can sneak onto an
exceptional function.

See r230786 and r230794 for similar changes to gep and load
respectively.
Call is a bit different because it often doesn't have a single explicit
type - usually the type is deduced from the arguments, and just the
return type is explicit. In those cases there's no need to change the
IR.
When that's not the case, the IR usually contains the pointer type of
the first operand - but since typed pointers are going away, that
representation is insufficient so I'm just stripping the "pointerness"
of the explicit type away.
This does make the IR a bit weird - it /sort of/ reads like the type of
the first operand: "call void () %x(" but %x is actually of type "void
()*" and will eventually be just of type "ptr". But this seems not too
bad and I don't think it would benefit from repeating the type
("void (), void () * %x(" and then eventually "void (), ptr %x(") as has
been done with gep and load.
This also has a side benefit: since the explicit type is no longer a
pointer, there's no ambiguity between an explicit type and a function
that returns a function pointer. Previously this case needed an explicit
type (eg: a function returning a void() function was written as
"call void () () * @x(" rather than "call void () * @x(" because of the
ambiguity between a function returning a pointer to a void() function
and a function returning void).
No ambiguity means even function pointer return types can just be
written alone, without writing the whole function's type.
This leaves /only/ the varargs case where the explicit type is required.
Given the special type syntax in call instructions, the regex-fu used
for migration was a bit more involved in its own unique way (as every
one of these is) so here it is. Use it in conjunction with the apply.sh
script and associated find/xargs commands I've provided in rr230786 to
migrate your out of tree tests. Do let me know if any of this doesn't
cover your cases & we can iterate on a more general script/regexes to
help others with out of tree tests.
About 9 test cases couldn't be automatically migrated - half of those
were functions returning function pointers, where I just had to manually
delete the function argument types now that we didn't need an explicit
function type there. The other half were typedefs of function types used
in calls - just had to manually drop the * from those.

Change the default for `-num-shuffles` to 5 and better document the
algorithm in the header docs of `verify-uselistorder`.

When predicting use-list order, we visit functions in reverse order
followed by `GlobalValue`s and write out use-lists at the first
opportunity. In the reader, this will translate to *after* the last use
has been added.
For this to work, we actually need to descend into `GlobalValue`s.
Added a targeted test in `use-list-order.ll` and `RUN` lines to the
newly passing tests in `test/Bitcode`.
There are two remaining failures in `test/Bitcode`:
- blockaddress.ll: I haven't thought through how to model the way
block addresses change the order of use-lists (or how to work around
it).
- metadata-2.ll: There's an old-style `@llvm.used` global array here
that I suspect the .ll parser isn't upgrading properly. When it
round-trips through bitcode, the .bc reader *does* upgrade it, so
the extra variable (`i8* null`) has an extra use, and the shuffle
vector doesn't match.
I think the fix is to upgrade old-style global arrays (or reject
them?) in the .ll parser.
This is part of PR5680.
