There is quiet a bit of logic that is common to any GlobalValue but was
duplicated for Functions, GlobalVariables and GlobalAliases.

The langref says:
LLVM explicitly allows declarations of global variables to be marked
constant, even if the final definition of the global is not. This
capability can be used to enable slightly better optimization of the
program, but requires the language definition to guarantee that
optimizations based on the ‘constantness’ are valid for the
translation units that do not include the definition.
Given that definition, when merging two declarations, we have to drop
constantness if of of them is not marked contant, since the Module
without the constant marker might not have the necessary guarantees.

This reverts commit r218918, effectively reapplying r218914 after fixing
an Ocaml bindings test and an Asan crash. The root cause of the latter
was a tightened-up check in `DILexicalBlock::Verify()`, so I'll file a
PR to investigate who requires the loose check (and why).

argument of the llvm.dbg.declare/llvm.dbg.value intrinsics.
Previously, DIVariable was a variable-length field that has an optional
reference to a Metadata array consisting of a variable number of
complex address expressions. In the case of OpPiece expressions this is
wasting a lot of storage in IR, because when an aggregate type is, e.g.,
SROA'd into all of its n individual members, the IR will contain n copies
of the DIVariable, all alike, only differing in the complex address
reference at the end.
By making the complex address into an extra argument of the
dbg.value/dbg.declare intrinsics, all of the pieces can reference the
same variable and the complex address expressions can be uniqued across
the CU, too.
Down the road, this will allow us to move other flags, such as
"indirection" out of the DIVariable, too.
The new intrinsics look like this:
declare void @llvm.dbg.declare(metadata %storage, metadata %var, metadata %expr)
declare void @llvm.dbg.value(metadata %storage, i64 %offset, metadata %var, metadata %expr)
This patch adds a new LLVM-local tag to DIExpressions, so we can detect
and pretty-print DIExpression metadata nodes.
What this patch doesn't do:
This patch does not touch the "Indirect" field in DIVariable; but moving
that into the expression would be a natural next step.

An optional third field was added to `llvm.global_ctors` (and
`llvm.global_dtors`) in r209015. Most of the code has been changed to
deal with both versions of the variables. Users of the C API might
create either version, the helper functions in LLVM create the two-field
version, and clang now creates the three-field version.
However, the BitcodeReader was changed to always upgrade to the
three-field version. This created an unnecessary inconsistency in the
IR before/after serializing to bitcode.
This commit resolves the inconsistency by making the third field truly
optional (and not upgrading in the bitcode reader). Since `llvm-link`
was relying on this upgrade code, rather than deleting it I've moved it
into `ModuleLinker`, where it upgrades these arrays as necessary to
resolve inconsistencies between modules.
The ideal resolution would be to remove the 2-field version and make the
third field required. I filed PR20506 to track that.
I changed `test/Bitcode/upgrade-global-ctors.ll` to a negative test and
duplicated the `llvm-link` check in `test/Linker/global_ctors.ll` to
check both upgrade directions.
Since I came across this as part of PR5680 (serializing use-list order),
I've also added the missing `verify-uselistorder` RUN line to
`test/Bitcode/metadata-2.ll`.

Before this patch we had
@a = weak global ...
but
@b = alias weak ...
The patch changes aliases to look more like global variables.
Looking at some really old code suggests that the reason was that the old
bison based parser had a reduction for alias linkages and another one for
global variable linkages. Putting the alias first avoided the reduce/reduce
conflict.
The days of the old .ll parser are long gone. The new one parses just "linkage"
and a later check is responsible for deciding if a linkage is valid in a
given context.

This new IR facility allows us to represent the object-file semantic of
a COMDAT group.
COMDATs allow us to tie together sections and make the inclusion of one
dependent on another. This is required to implement features like MS
ABI VFTables and optimizing away certain kinds of initialization in C++.
This functionality is only representable in COFF and ELF, Mach-O has no
similar mechanism.

Alias with unnamed_addr were in a strange state. It is stored in GlobalValue,
the language reference talks about "unnamed_addr aliases" but the verifier
was rejecting them.
It seems natural to allow unnamed_addr in aliases:
* It is a property of how it is accessed, not of the data itself.
* It is perfectly possible to write code that depends on the address
of an alias.
This patch then makes unname_addr legal for aliases. One side effect is that
the syntax changes for a corner case: In globals, unnamed_addr is now printed
before the address space.

This patch changes GlobalAlias to point to an arbitrary ConstantExpr and it is
up to MC (or the system assembler) to decide if that expression is valid or not.
This reduces our ability to diagnose invalid uses and how early we can spot
them, but it also lets us do things like
@test5 = alias inttoptr(i32 sub (i32 ptrtoint (i32* @test2 to i32),
i32 ptrtoint (i32* @bar to i32)) to i32*)
An important implication of this patch is that the notion of aliased global
doesn't exist any more. The alias has to encode the information needed to
access it in its metadata (linkage, visibility, type, etc).
Another consequence to notice is that getSection has to return a "const char *".
It could return a NullTerminatedStringRef if there was such a thing, but when
that was proposed the decision was to just uses "const char*" for that.

A further step to correctly emitting concrete out of line definitions
preceeding inlined instances of the same program.
To do this, emission of subprograms must be delayed until required since
we don't know which (abstract only (if there's no out of line
definition), concrete only (if there are no inlined instances), or both)
DIEs are required at the start of the module.
To reduce the test churn in the following commit that actually fixes the
bug, this commit introduces the lazy DIE construction and cleans up test
cases that are impacted by the changes in the resulting DIE ordering.

In an effort to fix inlined debug info in situations where the out of
line definition of a function preceeds any inlined usage, the order in
which some attributes are added to subprogram DIEs may change. (in
essence, definition-necessary attributes like DW_AT_low_pc/high_pc will
be added immediately, but the names, types, and other features will be
delayed to module end where they may either be added to the subprogram
DIE or instead reference an abstract definition for those values)
These tests can be generalized to be resilient to this change. 5 or so
tests actually have to be incompatibly changed to cope with this
reordering and will go along with the change that affects the order.

This allows us to put dynamic initializers for weak data into the same
comdat group as the data being initialized. This is necessary for MSVC
ABI compatibility. Once we have comdats for guard variables, we can use
the combination to help GlobalOpt fire more often for weak data with
guarded initialization on other platforms.

This patch changes the design of GlobalAlias so that it doesn't take a
ConstantExpr anymore. It now points directly to a GlobalObject, but its type is
independent of the aliasee type.
To avoid changing all alias related tests in this patches, I kept the common
syntax
@foo = alias i32* @bar
to mean the same as now. The cases that used to use cast now use the more
general syntax
@foo = alias i16, i32* @bar.
Note that GlobalAlias now behaves a bit more like GlobalVariable. We
know that its type is always a pointer, so we omit the '*'.
For the bitcode, a nice surprise is that we were writing both identical types
already, so the format change is minimal. Auto upgrade is handled by looking
through the casts and no new fields are needed for now. New bitcode will
simply have different types for Alias and Aliasee.
One last interesting point in the patch is that replaceAllUsesWith becomes
smart enough to avoid putting a ConstantExpr in the aliasee. This seems better
than checking and updating every caller.
A followup patch will delete getAliasedGlobal now that it is redundant. Another
patch will add support for an explicit offset.

based on the ODR.
This adds an OdrMemberMap to DwarfDebug which is used to unique C++
member function declarations based on the unique identifier of their
containing class and their mangled name.
We can't use the usual DIRef mechanism here because DIScopes are indexed
using their entire MDNode, including decl_file and decl_line, which need
not be unique (see testcase).
Prior to this change multiple redundant member function declarations would
end up in the same uniqued DW_TAG_class_type.

On ELF and COFF an alias is just another name for a position in the file.
There is no way to refer to a position in another file, so an alias to
undefined is meaningless.
MachO currently doesn't support aliases. The spec has a N_INDR, which when
implemented will have a different set of restrictions. Adding support for
it shouldn't be harder than any other IR extension.
For now, having the IR represent what is actually possible with current
tools makes it easier to fix the design of GlobalAlias.
