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.

machinery. This dramatically simplifies how things works, removes irritating
little corner cases, and overall improves speed and reliability.
Highlights of this change are:
1. The exponential algorithm built into the code is now gone. For example
the time to disassemble one bytecode file from the mesa benchmark went
from taking 12.5s to taking 0.16s.
2. The linker bugs should be dramatically reduced. The one remaining bug
has to do with constant handling, which I actually introduced in
"union-find" checkins.
3. The code is much easier to follow, as a result of fewer special cases.
It's probably also smaller. yaay.

significantly more complete. Instead, just make DerivedType's AbstractTypeUser's,
and make Value contain a PATypeHolder. This will also be more efficient in the
future.
