Douglas Gregor 67a6564091 Implement basic parsing and semantic analysis for explicit
specialization of class templates, e.g.,

  template<typename T> class X;

  template<> class X<int> { /* blah */ };

Each specialization is a different *Decl node (naturally), and can
have different members. We keep track of forward declarations and
definitions as for other class/struct/union types.

This is only the basic framework: we still have to deal with checking
the template headers properly, improving recovery when there are
failures, handling nested name specifiers, etc.

Douglas Gregor 264ec4f237 Added ClassTemplateSpecializationDecl, which is a subclass of
CXXRecordDecl that is used to represent class template
specializations. These are canonical declarations that can refer to
either an actual class template specialization in the code, e.g.,

  template<> class vector<bool> { };

or to a template instantiation. However, neither of these features is
actually implemented yet, so really we're just using (and uniqing) the
declarations to make sure that, e.g., A<int> is a different type from
A<float>. Note that we carefully distinguish between what the user
wrote in the source code (e.g., "A<FLOAT>") and the semantic entity it
represents (e.g., "A<float, int>"); the former is in the sugared Type,
the latter is an actual Decl.

Douglas Gregor f8f868336e Allow the use of default template arguments when forming a class
template specialization (e.g., std::vector<int> would now be
well-formed, since it relies on a default argument for the Allocator
template parameter). 

This is much less interesting than one might expect, since (1) we're
not actually using the default arguments for anything important, such
as naming an actual Decl, and (2) we'll often need to instantiate the
default arguments to check their well-formedness. The real fun will
come later.

Douglas Gregor dba326363c Implement parsing, semantic analysis and ASTs for default template
arguments. This commit covers checking and merging default template
arguments from previous declarations, but it does not cover the actual
use of default template arguments when naming class template
specializations.

Douglas Gregor 67b556a0da Eliminate TemplateArg so that we only have a single kind of
representation for template arguments. Also simplifies the interface
for ActOnClassTemplateSpecialization and eliminates some annoying
allocations of TemplateArgs.

My attempt at smart pointers for template arguments lists is
relatively lame. We can improve it once we're sure that we have the
right representation for template arguments.

Douglas Gregor 8bf4205c70 Start processing template-ids as types when the template-name refers
to a class template. For example, the template-id 'vector<int>' now
has a nice, sugary type in the type system. What we can do now:

  - Parse template-ids like 'vector<int>' (where 'vector' names a
    class template) and form proper types for them in the type system.
  - Parse icky template-ids like 'A<5>' and 'A<(5 > 0)>' properly,
    using (sadly) a bool in the parser to tell it whether '>' should
    be treated as an operator or not.

This is a baby-step, with major problems and limitations:
  - There are currently two ways that we handle template arguments
  (whether they are types or expressions). These will be merged, and,
  most likely, TemplateArg will disappear.
  - We don't have any notion of the declaration of class template
  specializations or of template instantiations, so all template-ids
  are fancy names for 'int' :)

Douglas Gregor cd72ba97e7 Semantic checking for class template declarations and
redeclarations. For example, checks that a class template
redeclaration has the same template parameters as previous
declarations.

Detangled class-template checking from ActOnTag, whose logic was
getting rather convoluted because it tried to handle C, C++, and C++
template semantics in one shot.

Made some inroads toward eliminating extraneous "declaration does not
declare anything" errors by adding an "error" type specifier.

Douglas Gregor eff93e0401 Improve the representation of template type parameters. We now
canonicalize by template parameter depth, index, and name, and the
unnamed version of a template parameter serves as the canonical.

TemplateTypeParmDecl no longer needs to inherit from
TemplateParmPosition, since depth and index information is present
within the type.
