regions of memory that have a target specific relationship, as described in the
Embedded C Technical Report.
This also implements the 2007-12-11-AddressSpaces test,
which demonstrates how address space attributes can be used in LLVM IR.
In addition, this patch changes the bitcode signature for stores (in a backwards
compatible manner), such that the pointer type, rather than the pointee type, is
encoded. This permits type information in the pointer (e.g. address space) to be
preserved for stores.
LangRef updates are forthcoming.

the function type, instead they belong to functions
and function calls. This is an updated and slightly
corrected version of Reid Spencer's original patch.
The only known problem is that auto-upgrading of
bitcode files doesn't seem to work properly (see
test/Bitcode/AutoUpgradeIntrinsics.ll). Hopefully
a bitcode guru (who might that be? :) ) will fix it.

Make ParamAttrsList objects unique. You can no longer directly create or
destroy them but instead must go through the ParamAttrsList::get()
interface.

Remove the handling of ParameterAttributes from FunctionType as they are
their own object defined in ParameterAttributes.h now.

Add the NoUnwindAttribute to allow explicit marking of functions that do
not unwind the stack via the unwind instruction. This is akin to gcc's
NoThrow attribute and used for optimizing exception handling.

1. New parameter attribute called 'inreg'. It has meaning "place this
parameter in registers, if possible". This is some generalization of
gcc's regparm(n) attribute. It's currently used only in X86-32 backend.
2. Completely rewritten CC handling/lowering code inside X86 backend.
Merged stdcall + c CCs and fastcall + fast CC.
3. Dropped CSRET CC. We cannot add struct return variant for each
target-specific CC (e.g. stdcall + csretcc and so on).
4. Instead of CSRET CC introduced 'sret' parameter attribute. Setting in
on first attribute has meaning 'This is hidden pointer to structure
return. Handle it gently'.
5. Fixed small bug in llvm-extract + add new feature to
FunctionExtraction pass, which relinks all internal-linkaged callees
from deleted function to external linkage. This will allow further
linking everything together.
NOTEs: 1. Documentation will be updated soon.
2. llvm-upgrade should be improved to translate csret => sret.
Before this, there will be some unexpected test fails.

This is the final patch for this PR. It implements some minor cleanup
in the use of IntegerType, to wit:
1. Type::getIntegerTypeMask -> IntegerType::getBitMask
2. Type::Int*Ty changed to IntegerType* from Type*
3. ConstantInt::getType() returns IntegerType* now, not Type*
This also fixes PR1120.

mostly be used by back ends that wish to distinguish between integer types
that fit evenly within a natural integer type and those that don't.

Implement the arbitrary bit-width integer feature. The feature allows
integers of any bitwidth (up to 64) to be defined instead of just 1, 8,
16, 32, and 64 bit integers.
This change does several things:
1. Introduces a new Derived Type, IntegerType, to represent the number of
bits in an integer. The Type classes SubclassData field is used to
store the number of bits. This allows 2^23 bits in an integer type.
2. Removes the five integer Type::TypeID values for the 1, 8, 16, 32 and
64-bit integers. These are replaced with just IntegerType which is not
a primitive any more.
3. Adjust the rest of LLVM to account for this change.
Note that while this incremental change lays the foundation for arbitrary
bit-width integers, LLVM has not yet been converted to actually deal with
them in any significant way. Most optimization passes, for example, will
still only deal with the byte-width integer types. Future increments
will rectify this situation.

1. The @ sign is no longer necessary.
2. We now support "function attributes" as parameter attribute 0.
3. Instead of locating the return type attributes after the type of a
function result, they are now located after the function header's
closing paranthesis and before any alignment or section options.
4. The way has been prepared for a new "noreturn" function attribute but
there is no support for recognizing it in the lexer nor doing anything
with it if it does get set.
5. The FunctionType::getParamAttrsText method now has support for
returning multiple attributes. This required a change in its interface.
I'm unhappy that this change leads to 6 new shift/reduce conflicts, but
in each case bison's decision to choose the shift is correct so there
shouldn't be any damage from these conflicts.

Add a new feature to FunctionType, Parameter Attributes. This allows tags
such as "sext" and "zext" to be associated with a faunction's arguments
or return type. This allows signedness information to be carried forward
from the frontend to the backend for arguments and result types.

all of the ad-hoc storage of contained types. This allows getContainedType to
not be virtual, and allows us to entirely delete the TypeIterator class.
