"half precision" floating-point with a first-class type.
This patch adds basic IR support (but not codegen support).

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.

(The Ada bindings probably need it too, but all the
obvious places to change say "do not edit this file".)

modules are also deleted.

by dropping all references from all constants that can use other
constants before trying to destroy any of them.
I also had to free bugpoint's Module in ~BugDriver().

- Yay for '-'s and simplifications!
- I kept StringMap::GetOrCreateValue for compatibility purposes, this can
eventually go away. Likewise the StringMapEntry Create functions still follow
the old style.
- NIFC.

- Rename member function size(). New name is length().
- Store string beginning and length. Earlier it used to store string end.
