which was just replaceAllUsesWith without some assertions. It was
needed back when type refinement was alive.

patch brings numerous advantages to LLVM. One way to look at it
is through diffstat:
109 files changed, 3005 insertions(+), 5906 deletions(-)
Removing almost 3K lines of code is a good thing. Other advantages
include:
1. Value::getType() is a simple load that can be CSE'd, not a mutating
union-find operation.
2. Types a uniqued and never move once created, defining away PATypeHolder.
3. Structs can be "named" now, and their name is part of the identity that
uniques them. This means that the compiler doesn't merge them structurally
which makes the IR much less confusing.
4. Now that there is no way to get a cycle in a type graph without a named
struct type, "upreferences" go away.
5. Type refinement is completely gone, which should make LTO much MUCH faster
in some common cases with C++ code.
6. Types are now generally immutable, so we can use "Type *" instead
"const Type *" everywhere.
Downsides of this patch are that it removes some functions from the C API,
so people using those will have to upgrade to (not yet added) new API.
"LLVM 3.0" is the right time to do this.
There are still some cleanups pending after this, this patch is large enough
as-is.

testing for dereferenceable pointers into a helper function,
isDereferenceablePointer. Teach it how to reason about GEPs
with simple non-zero indices.
Also eliminate ArgumentPromtion's IsAlwaysValidPointer,
which didn't check for weak externals or out of range gep
indices.

parameter with a default value, instead of just hardcoding it in the
implementation. The limit of MaxLookup = 6 was introduced in r69151 to fix
a performance problem with O(n^2) behavior in instcombine, but the scalarrepl
pass is relying on getUnderlyingObject to go all the way back to an AllocaInst.
Making the limit part of the method signature makes it clear that by default
the result is limited and should help avoid similar problems in the future.
This fixes pr6126.

getMDKindID/getMDKindNames methods to LLVMContext (and add
convenience methods to Module), eliminating MetadataContext.

a convention (shadowing the setter with private forwarding function) to
prevent subclasses from accidentally using it.
This exposed some bogosity in ConstantExprs, which was propaging the
opcode of the constant expr into the NUW/NSW/Exact field in the
getWithOperands/getWithOperandReplaced methods.

I asked Devang to do back on Sep 27. Instead of going through the
MetadataContext class with methods like getMD() and getMDs(), just
ask the instruction directly for its metadata with getMetadata()
and getAllMetadata().
This includes a variety of other fixes and improvements: previously
all Value*'s were bloated because the HasMetadata bit was thrown into
value, adding a 9th bit to a byte. Now this is properly sunk down to
the Instruction class (the only place where it makes sense) and it
will be folded away somewhere soon.
This also fixes some confusion in getMDs and its clients about
whether the returned list is indexed by the MDID or densely packed.
This is now returned sorted and densely packed and the comments make
this clear.
This introduces a number of fixme's which I'll follow up on.

values. This fixes a variety of problems, including crashes with -debug

two different places for printing MachineMemOperands.
Drop the virtual from Value::dump and instead give Value a
protected virtual hook that can be overridden by subclasses
to implement custom printing. This lets printing be more
consistent, and simplifies printing of PseudoSourceValue
values.

instead of cloning and RAUWing it.
- Make AbstractTypeUser a friend of Value so that it can offer
its subclasses a way to update a Value's type in place. This
is better than a universally visible setType method on Value,
and it's sufficient for the immediate need.
- Eliminate the constant "convert" functions. This eliminates a
lot of logic duplication, and fixes a complicated bug where a
constant can't actually be cloned during the type refinement
process because some of the types that its folder needs are
half-destroyed, being in the middle of refinement themselves.
- Move the getValType functions from being static overloaded
functions in Constants.cpp to be members of class template
specializations in ConstantsContext.h. This means that the
code ends up getting instantiated twice, however it also
makes it possible to eliminate all "convert" functions, so
it's not a big net code size increase. And if desired, the
duplicate instantiations could be eliminated with some
reorganization.

Constant uniquing tables. This allows distinct ConstantExpr objects
with the same operation and different flags.
Even though a ConstantExpr "a + b" is either always overflowing or
never overflowing (due to being a ConstantExpr), it's still necessary
to be able to represent it both with and without overflow flags at
the same time within the IR, because the safety of the flag may
depend on the context of the use. If the constant really does overflow,
it wouldn't ever be safe to use with the flag set, however the use
may be in code that is never actually executed.
This also makes it possible to merge all the flags tests into a single test.

and introduce a new Instruction::isIdenticalTo which tests for full
identity, including the SubclassOptionalData flags. Also, fix the
Instruction::clone implementations to preserve the SubclassOptionalData
flags. Finally, teach several optimizations how to handle
SubclassOptionalData correctly, given these changes.
This fixes the counterintuitive behavior of isIdenticalTo not comparing
the full value, and clone not returning an identical clone, as well as
some subtle bugs that could be caused by these.
Thanks to Nick Lewycky for reporting this, and for an initial patch!
