1) implement parser and sema support for reading and verifying attribute(warnunusedresult).
2) rename hasLocalSideEffect to isUnusedResultAWarning, inverting the sense
of its result.
3) extend isUnusedResultAWarning to directly return the loc and range
info that should be reported to the user. Make it substantially more
precise in some cases than what was previously reported.
4) teach isUnusedResultAWarning about CallExpr to decls that are
pure/const/warnunusedresult, fixing a fixme.
5) change warn_attribute_wrong_decl_type to not pass in english strings, instead,
pass in integers and use %select.

This commit adds a new attribute, "overloadable", that enables C++
function overloading in C. The attribute can only be added to function
declarations, e.g.,
int *f(int) __attribute__((overloadable));
If the "overloadable" attribute exists on a function with a given
name, *all* functions with that name (and in that scope) must have the
"overloadable" attribute. Sets of overloaded functions with the
"overloadable" attribute then follow the normal C++ rules for
overloaded functions, e.g., overloads must have different
parameter-type-lists from each other.
When calling an overloaded function in C, we follow the same
overloading rules as C++, with three extensions to the set of standard
conversions:
- A value of a given struct or union type T can be converted to the
type T. This is just the identity conversion. (In C++, this would
go through a copy constructor).
- A value of pointer type T* can be converted to a value of type U*
if T and U are compatible types. This conversion has Conversion
rank (it's considered a pointer conversion in C).
- A value of type T can be converted to a value of type U if T and U
are compatible (and are not both pointer types). This conversion
has Conversion rank (it's considered to be a new kind of
conversion unique to C, a "compatible" conversion).
Known defects (and, therefore, next steps):
1) The standard-conversion handling does not understand conversions
involving _Complex or vector extensions, so it is likely to get
these wrong. We need to add these conversions.
2) All overloadable functions with the same name will have the same
linkage name, which means we'll get a collision in the linker (if
not sooner). We'll need to mangle the names of these functions.

it fixes PR2204. Not too much to say about the implementation; it works
in a similar way to the vector size attribute.
At some point, we need to modify the targets to provide information
about the appropriate types.

lib dir and move all the libraries into it. This follows the main
llvm tree, and allows the libraries to be built in parallel. The
top level now enforces that all the libs are built before Driver,
but we don't care what order the libs are built in. This speeds
up parallel builds, particularly incremental ones.
