Specifically, introduction of XXX::Create methods
for Users that have a potentially variable number of
Uses.

1. There is now a "PAListPtr" class, which is a smart pointer around
the underlying uniqued parameter attribute list object, and manages
its refcount. It is now impossible to mess up the refcount.
2. PAListPtr is now the main interface to the underlying object, and
the underlying object is now completely opaque.
3. Implementation details like SmallVector and FoldingSet are now no
longer part of the interface.
4. You can create a PAListPtr with an arbitrary sequence of
ParamAttrsWithIndex's, no need to make a SmallVector of a specific
size (you can just use an array or scalar or vector if you wish).
5. All the client code that had to check for a null pointer before
dereferencing the pointer is simplified to just access the
PAListPtr directly.
6. The interfaces for adding attrs to a list and removing them is a
bit simpler.
Phase #2 will rename some stuff (e.g. PAListPtr) and do other less
invasive changes.

This pass transforms
%struct._Point = type { i32, i32, i32, i32, i32, i32 }
define internal void @foo(%struct._Point* sret %agg.result)
into
%struct._Point = type { i32, i32, i32, i32, i32, i32 }
define internal %struct._Point @foo()
This pass updates foo() clients appropriately to use
getresult instruction to extract return values.
This pass is not yet ready for prime time.
