While gaining practical experience hand-updating CHECK lines (for moving
the new debug info hierarchy into place), I learnt a few things about
CHECK-ability of the specialized node assembly output.
- The first part of a `CHECK:` is to identify the "right" node (this
is especially true if you intend to use the new `CHECK-SAME`
feature, since the first CHECK needs to identify the node correctly
before you can split the line).
- If there's a `tag:`, it should go first.
- If there's a `name:`, it should go next (followed by the
`linkageName:`, if any).
- If there's a `scope:`, it should follow after that.
- When a node type supports multiple DW_TAGs, but one is implied by
its name and is overwhelmingly more common, the `tag:` field is
terribly uninteresting unless it's different.
- `MDBasicType` is almost always `DW_TAG_base_type`.
- `MDTemplateValueParameter` is almost always
`DW_TAG_template_value_parameter`.
- Printing `name: ""` doesn't improve CHECK-ability, and there are far
more nodes than I realized that are commonly nameless.
- There are a few other fields that similarly aren't very interesting
when they're empty.
This commit updates the `AsmWriter` as suggested above (and makes
necessary changes in `LLParser` for round-tripping).

Parse (and write) symbolic constants in debug info `flags:` fields.
This prevents a readability (and CHECK-ability) regression with the new
debug info hierarchy.
Old (well, current) assembly, with pretty-printing:
!{!"...\\0016387", ...} ; ... [public] [rvalue reference]
Flags field without this change:
!MDDerivedType(flags: 16387, ...)
Flags field with this change:
!MDDerivedType(flags: DIFlagPublic | DIFlagRValueReference, ...)
As discussed in the review thread, this isn't a final state. Most of
these flags correspond to `DW_AT_` symbolic constants, and we might
eventually want to support arbitrary attributes in some form. However,
as it stands now, some of the flags correspond to other concepts (like
`FlagStaticMember`); until things are refactored this is the simplest
way to move forward without regressing assembly.

In the old (well, current) schema, there are two types of file
references: untagged and tagged (the latter references the former).
!0 = !{!"filename", !"/directory"}
!1 = !{!"0x29", !1} ; DW_TAG_file_type [filename] [/directory]
The interface to `DIBuilder` universally takes the tagged version,
described by `DIFile`. However, most `file:` references actually use
the untagged version directly.
In the new hierarchy, I'm merging this into a single node: `MDFile`.
Originally I'd planned to keep the old schema unchanged until after I
moved the new hierarchy into place.
However, it turns out to be trivial to make `MDFile` match both nodes at
the same time.
- Anyone referencing !1 does so through `DIFile`, whose implementation
I need to gut anyway (as I do the rest of the `DIDescriptor`s).
- Anyone referencing !0 just references an `MDNode`, and expects a
node with two `MDString` operands.
This commit achieves that, and updates all the testcases for the parts
of the new hierarchy that used the two-node schema (I've replaced the
untagged nodes with `distinct !{}` to make the diff clear (otherwise the
metadata all gets renumbered); it might be worthwhile to come back and
delete those nodes and renumber the world, not sure).
