While gaining practical experience hand-updating CHECK lines (for moving
the new debug info hierarchy into place), I learnt a few things about
CHECK-ability of the specialized node assembly output.
- The first part of a `CHECK:` is to identify the "right" node (this
is especially true if you intend to use the new `CHECK-SAME`
feature, since the first CHECK needs to identify the node correctly
before you can split the line).
- If there's a `tag:`, it should go first.
- If there's a `name:`, it should go next (followed by the
`linkageName:`, if any).
- If there's a `scope:`, it should follow after that.
- When a node type supports multiple DW_TAGs, but one is implied by
its name and is overwhelmingly more common, the `tag:` field is
terribly uninteresting unless it's different.
- `MDBasicType` is almost always `DW_TAG_base_type`.
- `MDTemplateValueParameter` is almost always
`DW_TAG_template_value_parameter`.
- Printing `name: ""` doesn't improve CHECK-ability, and there are far
more nodes than I realized that are commonly nameless.
- There are a few other fields that similarly aren't very interesting
when they're empty.
This commit updates the `AsmWriter` as suggested above (and makes
necessary changes in `LLParser` for round-tripping).
