The bitcode reading interface used std::error_code to report an error to the
callers and it is the callers job to print diagnostics.
This is not ideal for error handling or diagnostic reporting:
* For error handling, all that the callers care about is 3 possibilities:
* It worked
* The bitcode file is corrupted/invalid.
* The file is not bitcode at all.
* For diagnostic, it is user friendly to include far more information
about the invalid case so the user can find out what is wrong with the
bitcode file. This comes up, for example, when a developer introduces a
bug while extending the format.
The compromise we had was to have a lot of error codes.
With this patch we use the DiagnosticHandler to communicate with the
human and std::error_code to communicate with the caller.
This allows us to have far fewer error codes and adds the infrastructure to
print better diagnostics. This is so because the diagnostics are printed when
he issue is found. The code that detected the problem in alive in the stack and
can pass down as much context as needed. As an example the patch updates
test/Bitcode/invalid.ll.
Using a DiagnosticHandler also moves the fatal/non-fatal error decision to the
caller. A simple one like llvm-dis can just use fatal errors. The gold plugin
needs a bit more complex treatment because of being passed non-bitcode files. An
hypothetical interactive tool would make all bitcode errors non-fatal.

Summary:
This patch moves the profile reading logic out of the Sample Profile
transformation into a generic profile reader facility in
lib/ProfileData.
The intent is to use this new reader to implement a sample profile
reader/writer that can be used to convert sample profiles from external
sources into LLVM.
This first patch introduces no functional changes. It moves the profile
reading code from lib/Transforms/SampleProfile.cpp into
lib/ProfileData/SampleProfReader.cpp.
In subsequent patches I will:
- Add a bitcode format for sample profiles to allow for more efficient
encoding of the profile.
- Add a writer for both text and bitcode format profiles.
- Add a 'convert' command to llvm-profdata to be able to convert between
the two (and serve as entry point for other sample profile formats).

Add header guards to files that were missing guards. Remove #endif comments
as they don't seem common in LLVM (we can easily add them back if we decide
they're useful)

This patch modifies the existing DiagnosticInfo system to create a generic base
class that is inherited to produce diagnostic-based warnings. This is used by
the loop vectorizer to trigger a warning when vectorization is forced and
fails. Several tests have been added to verify this behavior.

Summary:
This patch moves the handling of -pass-remarks* over to
lib/DiagnosticInfo.cpp. This allows the removal of the
optimizationRemarkEnabledFor functions from LLVMContextImpl, as they're
not needed anymore.

Summary:
This adds two new diagnostics: -pass-remarks-missed and
-pass-remarks-analysis. They take the same values as -pass-remarks but
are intended to be triggered in different contexts.
-pass-remarks-missed is used by LLVMContext::emitOptimizationRemarkMissed,
which passes call when they tried to apply a transformation but
couldn't.
-pass-remarks-analysis is used by LLVMContext::emitOptimizationRemarkAnalysis,
which passes call when they want to inform the user about analysis
results.
The patch also:
1- Adds support in the inliner for the two new remarks and a
test case.
2- Moves emitOptimizationRemark* functions to the llvm namespace.
3- Adds an LLVMContext argument instead of making them member functions
of LLVMContext.

Summary:
This patch adds backend support for -Rpass=, which indicates the name
of the optimization pass that should emit remarks stating when it
made a transformation to the code.
Pass names are taken from their DEBUG_NAME definitions.
When emitting an optimization report diagnostic, the lack of debug
information causes the diagnostic to use "<unknown>:0:0" as the
location string.

Summary:
The sample profiler pass emits several error messages. Instead of
just aborting the compiler with report_fatal_error, we can emit
better messages using DiagnosticInfo.
This adds a new sub-class of DiagnosticInfo to handle the sample
profiler.

A 'remark' is information that is not an error or a warning, but rather some
additional information provided to the user. In contrast to a 'note' a 'remark'
is an independent diagnostic, whereas a 'note' always depends on another
diagnostic.
A typical use case for remark nodes is information provided to the user, e.g.
information provided by the vectorizer about loops that have been vectorized.

This reapplies r197438 and fixes the link-time circular dependency between
IR and Support. The fix consists in moving the diagnostic support into IR.
The patch adds a new LLVMContext::diagnose that can be used to communicate to
the front-end, if any, that something of interest happened.
The diagnostics are supported by a new abstraction, the DiagnosticInfo class.
The base class contains the following information:
- The kind of the report: What this is about.
- The severity of the report: How bad this is.
This patch also adds 2 classes:
- DiagnosticInfoInlineAsm: For inline asm reporting. Basically, this diagnostic
will be used to switch to the new diagnostic API for LLVMContext::emitError.
- DiagnosticStackSize: For stack size reporting. Comes as a replacement of the
hard coded warning in PEI.
This patch also features dynamic diagnostic identifiers. In other words plugins
can use this infrastructure for their own diagnostics (for more details, see
getNextAvailablePluginDiagnosticKind).
This patch introduces a new DiagnosticHandlerTy and a new DiagnosticContext in
the LLVMContext that should be set by the front-end to be able to map these
diagnostics in its own system.
