9b18dbfe83 Optimize metadata node fields for CHECK-ability
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).

eac950e408 IR: Drop scope from MDTemplateParameter
Follow-up to r229740, which removed `DITemplate*::getContext()` after my
upgrade script revealed that scopes are always `nullptr` for template
parameters.  This is the other shoe: drop `scope:` from
`MDTemplateParameter` and its two subclasses.  (Note: a bitcode upgrade
would be pointless, since the hierarchy hasn't been moved into place.)
