Since JIT->MCJIT migration, most of the ExecutionEngine interface
became deprecated and/or broken. This especially affected the OCaml
bindings, as runFunction is no longer available, and unlike in C,
it is not possible to coerce a pointer to a function and call it
in OCaml.
In practice, LLVM 3.5 shipped completely unusable
Llvm_executionengine.
The GenericValue interface and runFunction were essentially
a poor man's FFI. As such, this interface was removed and instead
a dependency on ctypes >=0.3 added, which handled platform-specific
aspects of accessing data and calling functions.
The new interface does not expose JIT (which is a shim around MCJIT),
as well as the interpreter (which can't handle a lot of valid IR).
Llvm_executionengine.add_global_mapping is currently unusable
due to PR20656.

Prior to this commit, the Llvm_target tests (ab)used
the Llvm_executionengine as a mechanism to initialize at least some
target. This needlessly restricted tests to builds which can emit
code for their host architecture.

This commit updates the OCaml bindings and tests to use ocamlfind.
The bindings are migrated in order to use ctypes, which are now
required for MCJIT-backed Llvm_executionengine.
The tests are migrated in order to use OUnit and to verify that
the distributed META.llvm allows to build working executables.
Every OCaml toolchain invocation is now chained through ocamlfind,
which (in theory) allows to cross-compile the OCaml bindings.
The configure script now checks for ctypes (>= 0.2.3) and
OUnit (>= 2). The code depending on these libraries will be added
later. The configure script does not check the package versions
in order to keep changes less invasive.
Additionally, OCaml bindings will now be automatically enabled
if ocamlfind is detected on the system, rather than ocamlc, as it
was before.

Previously, tests hardcoded ocamlopt and cmxa, which broke builds on
machines without ocamlopt. Instead, they now fall back to ocamlc.
As a side effect this fixes PR14727, which was caused by a crude hack
that replaced gcc with g++ everywhere in the ocamlopt native compiler
path and passes it back using -cc. Now the tests use the same
technique as META, i.e. -cclib -lstdc++. It might be more fragile
than using g++ explicitly, but it will break when the installed
package will also break, which is good.

First, return true on success, as it is the OCaml convention.
Second, also initialize the native assembly printer, which is,
despite the name, required for MCJIT operation.
Since this function did not initialize the assembly printer earlier
and no function to initialize native assembly printer was available
elsewhere, it is safe to break its interface: it means that it
simply could not be used successfully before.

This tool lets us build LLVM components within the tree by setting up a
$GOPATH that resembles a tree fetched in the normal way with "go get".
It is intended that components such as the Go frontend will be built in-tree
using this tool.

the CGO build environment. This lets things like -rpath propagate down
to the C++ code that is built along side the Go bindings when testing
them.
Patch by Peter Collingbourne, and verified that it works by me.

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).
Original commit message follows.

This patch addresses the first stage of PR17891 by folding constant
arguments together into a single MDString. Integers are stringified and
a `\0` character is used as a separator.
Part of PR17891.
Note: I've attached my testcases upgrade scripts to the PR. If I've
just broken your out-of-tree testcases, they might help.

Summary:
Until r216870 LLVMCreateObjectFile returned nullptr in case of an error,
so callers could check if the call was successful. Now, it always
returns an OwningBinary wrapped as an LLVMObjectFileRef, so callers
can't check if the call was successul.
This results in a segfault running e.g.
llvm-c-test --object-list-sections < /dev/null
So the old behaviour should be restored.

While the test would work with any compiled in target with object
emission support, it's nontrivial to formulate this condition in
lit, so a conservative restriction is used instead.

primitive names in Llvm_target in order with the rest of the bindings,
in preparation for adding TargetMachine API.

Llvm_target.intptr_type used to implicitly use global context. As
none of other functions in OCaml bindings do, it is changed to
accept context explicitly.
