"this" pointer for any subclass of User, you could static_cast it to
User* and then reinterpret_cast that to Use* to get the end of the
operand list. This isn't a safe assumption in general, because the
static_cast might adjust the "this" pointer. Fixed by having these
OperandTraits classes take an extra template parameter, which is the
subclass of User. This is groundwork for PR889.

Add a unnamed_addr bit to global variables and functions. This will be used
to indicate that the address is not significant and therefore the constant
or function can be merged with others.
If an optimization pass can show that an address is not used, it can set this.
Examples of things that can have this set by the FE are globals created to
hold string literals and C++ constructors.
Adding unnamed_addr to a non-const global should have no effect unless
an optimization can transform that global into a constant.
Aliases are not allowed to have unnamed_addr since I couldn't figure
out any use for it.

(The Ada bindings probably need it too, but all the
obvious places to change say "do not edit this file".)

is different from what the code now uses in a two ways: NamedMDNodes
were considered Values and included in the numbering, and the
function-local metadata counter wasn't reset between functions.
The later problem breaks lazy deserialization, so instead of trying
to emulate the old numbering, just drop the old metadata. The only
in-tree use case is debug info with LTO, where the QOI loss is
considered acceptable.

from MDValueList between each function, now that the bitcode
writer is reusing the index space for function-local metadata.

It's similar to "linker_private_weak", but it's known that the address of the
object is not taken. For instance, functions that had an inline definition, but
the compiler decided not to inline it. Note, unlike linker_private and
linker_private_weak, linker_private_weak_def_auto may have only default
visibility. The symbols are removed by the linker from the final linked image
(executable or dynamic library).

not part of the IR, are not uniqued, and may be safely RAUW'd.
This replaces a variety of alternate mechanisms for achieving
the same effect.

Make MDNode::destroy private.
Fix the one thing that used MDNode::destroy, outside of MDNode itself.
One should never delete or destroy an MDNode explicitly. MDNodes
implicitly go away when there are no references to them (implementation
details aside).

bitcode file, so that two bitcode files where the same metadata kind
name happens to have been assigned a different ID can still be
linked together.
Eliminate the restriction that metadata kind IDs can't be 0.
Change MD_dbg from 1 to 0, because we can now, and because it's
less mysterious that way.

Objective-C metadata types which should be marked as "weak", but which the
linker will remove upon final linkage. However, this linkage isn't specific to
Objective-C.
For example, the "objc_msgSend_fixup_alloc" symbol is defined like this:
.globl l_objc_msgSend_fixup_alloc
.weak_definition l_objc_msgSend_fixup_alloc
.section __DATA, __objc_msgrefs, coalesced
.align 3
l_objc_msgSend_fixup_alloc:
.quad _objc_msgSend_fixup
.quad L_OBJC_METH_VAR_NAME_1
This is different from the "linker_private" linkage type, because it can't have
the metadata defined with ".weak_definition".
Currently only supported on Darwin platforms.
