CallSite roughly behaves as a common base CallInst and InvokeInst. Bring
the behavior closer to that model by making upcasts explicit. Downcasts
remain implicit and work as before.
Following dyn_cast as a mental model checking whether a Value *V isa
CallSite now looks like this:
if (auto CS = CallSite(V)) // think dyn_cast
instead of:
if (CallSite CS = V)
This is an extra token but I think it is slightly clearer. Making the
ctor explicit has the advantage of not accidentally creating nullptr
CallSites, e.g. when you pass a Value * to a function taking a CallSite
argument.

Generate tables in the .xdata section representing what actions to take
when an exception is thrown. This currently fills in state for
cleanups, catch handlers are still unfinished.

This attribute indicates that the parameter or return pointer is
dereferenceable. Practically speaking, loads from such a pointer within the
associated byte range are safe to speculatively execute. Such pointer
parameters are common in source languages (C++ references, for example).

The number of tail call to loop conversions remains the same (1618 by my count).
The new algorithm does a local scan over the use-def chains to identify local "alloca-derived" values, as well as points where the alloca could escape. Then, a visit over the CFG marks blocks as being before or after the allocas have escaped, and annotates the calls accordingly.

This is similar to the 'tail' marker, except that it guarantees that
tail call optimization will occur. It also comes with convervative IR
verification rules that ensure that tail call optimization is possible.

This requires a number of steps.
1) Move value_use_iterator into the Value class as an implementation
detail
2) Change it to actually be a *Use* iterator rather than a *User*
iterator.
3) Add an adaptor which is a User iterator that always looks through the
Use to the User.
4) Wrap these in Value::use_iterator and Value::user_iterator typedefs.
5) Add the range adaptors as Value::uses() and Value::users().
6) Update *all* of the callers to correctly distinguish between whether
they wanted a use_iterator (and to explicitly dig out the User when
needed), or a user_iterator which makes the Use itself totally
opaque.
Because #6 requires churning essentially everything that walked the
Use-Def chains, I went ahead and added all of the range adaptors and
switched them to range-based loops where appropriate. Also because the
renaming requires at least churning every line of code, it didn't make
any sense to split these up into multiple commits -- all of which would
touch all of the same lies of code.
The result is still not quite optimal. The Value::use_iterator is a nice
regular iterator, but Value::user_iterator is an iterator over User*s
rather than over the User objects themselves. As a consequence, it fits
a bit awkwardly into the range-based world and it has the weird
extra-dereferencing 'operator->' that so many of our iterators have.
I think this could be fixed by providing something which transforms
a range of T&s into a range of T*s, but that *can* be separated into
another patch, and it isn't yet 100% clear whether this is the right
move.
However, this change gets us most of the benefit and cleans up
a substantial amount of code around Use and User. =]

itself and teach it to convert between the non-const and const variants.
De-templatetize its usage in APIs to just use the const variant which
always works for those use cases. Also, rename its implementation to
reflect that it is an iterator over *users* not over *uses*.
This is a step toward providing both iterator and range support for
walking the *uses* distinct from the *users*. In a subsequent patch this
will get renamed to make it clear that this is an adaptor over the
fundamental use iterator.
