This change moves the ownership and access of GCFunctionInfo (the object which describes the safepoints associated with a safepoint under GCRoot) to GCModuleInfo. Previously, this was owned by GCStrategy which was in turned owned by GCModuleInfo. This made GCStrategy module specific which is 'surprising' given it's name and other purposes.
There's a few more changes needed, but we're getting towards the point we can reuse GCStrategy for gc.statepoint as well.
p.s. The style of this code ends up being a mess. I was trying to move code around without otherwise changing much. Once I get the ownership structure rearranged, I will go through and fixup spacing, naming, comments etc.

In the current implementation, GCStrategy is a part of the ownership structure for the gc metadata which describes a Module. It also contains a reference to the module in question. As a result, GCStrategy instances are essentially Module specific.
I plan to transition away from this design. Instead, a GCStrategy will be owned by the LLVMContext. It will be a lightweight policy object which contains no information about the Modules or Functions involved, but can be easily reached given a Function.
The first step in this transition is to remove the direct Module reference from GCStrategy. This also requires removing the single user of this reference, the GCMetadataPrinter hierarchy. In theory, this will allow the lifetime of the printers to be scoped to the LLVMContext as well, but in practice, I'm not actually changing that. (Yet?)
An alternate design would have been to move the direct Module reference into the GCMetadataPrinter and change the keying of the owning maps to explicitly key off both GCStrategy and Module. I'm open to doing it that way instead, but didn't see much value in preserving the per Module association for GCMetadataPrinters.
The next change in this sequence will be to start unwinding the intertwined ownership between GCStrategy, GCModuleInfo, and GCFunctionInfo.

into their new header subdirectory: include/llvm/IR. This matches the
directory structure of lib, and begins to correct a long standing point
of file layout clutter in LLVM.
There are still more header files to move here, but I wanted to handle
them in separate commits to make tracking what files make sense at each
layer easier.
The only really questionable files here are the target intrinsic
tablegen files. But that's a battle I'd rather not fight today.
I've updated both CMake and Makefile build systems (I think, and my
tests think, but I may have missed something).
I've also re-sorted the includes throughout the project. I'll be
committing updates to Clang, DragonEgg, and Polly momentarily.

Sooooo many of these had incorrect or strange main module includes.
I have manually inspected all of these, and fixed the main module
include to be the nearest plausible thing I could find. If you own or
care about any of these source files, I encourage you to take some time
and check that these edits were sensible. I can't have broken anything
(I strictly added headers, and reordered them, never removed), but they
may not be the headers you'd really like to identify as containing the
API being implemented.
Many forward declarations and missing includes were added to a header
files to allow them to parse cleanly when included first. The main
module rule does in fact have its merits. =]

r165941: Resubmit the changes to llvm core to update the functions to
support different pointer sizes on a per address space basis.
Despite this commit log, this change primarily changed stuff outside of
VMCore, and those changes do not carry any tests for correctness (or
even plausibility), and we have consistently found questionable or flat
out incorrect cases in these changes. Most of them are probably correct,
but we need to devise a system that makes it more clear when we have
handled the address space concerns correctly, and ideally each pass that
gets updated would receive an accompanying test case that exercises that
pass specificaly w.r.t. alternate address spaces.
However, from this commit, I have retained the new C API entry points.
Those were an orthogonal change that probably should have been split
apart, but they seem entirely good.
In several places the changes were very obvious cleanups with no actual
multiple address space code added; these I have not reverted when
I spotted them.
In a few other places there were merge conflicts due to a cleaner
solution being implemented later, often not using address spaces at all.
In those cases, I've preserved the new code which isn't address space
dependent.
This is part of my ongoing effort to clean out the partial address space
code which carries high risk and low test coverage, and not likely to be
finished before the 3.2 release looms closer. Duncan and I would both
like to see the above issues addressed before we return to these
changes.

it is highly specific to the object file that will be generated in the end,
this introduces a new TargetLoweringObjectFile interface that is implemented
for each of ELF/MachO/COFF/Alpha/PIC16 and XCore.
Though still is still a brutal and ugly refactoring, this is a major step
towards goodness.
This patch also:
1. fixes a bunch of dangling pointer problems in the PIC16 backend.
2. disables the TargetLowering copy ctor which PIC16 was accidentally using.
3. gets us closer to xcore having its own crazy target section flags and
pic16 not having to shadow sections with its own objects.
4. fixes wierdness where ELF targets would set CStringSection but not
CStringSection_. Factor the code better.
5. fixes some bugs in string lowering on ELF targets.

In particular, Collector was confusing to implementors. Several
thought that this compile-time class was the place to implement
their runtime GC heap. Of course, it doesn't even exist at runtime.
Specifically, the renames are:
Collector -> GCStrategy
CollectorMetadata -> GCFunctionInfo
CollectorModuleMetadata -> GCModuleInfo
CollectorRegistry -> GCRegistry
Function::getCollector -> getGC (setGC, hasGC, clearGC)
Several accessors and nested types have also been renamed to be
consistent. These changes should be obvious.
