This model uses the 'landingpad' instruction, which is pinned to the top of the
landing pad. (A landing pad is defined as the destination of the unwind branch
of an invoke instruction.) All of the information needed to generate the correct
exception handling metadata during code generation is encoded into the
landingpad instruction.
The new 'resume' instruction takes the place of the llvm.eh.resume intrinsic
call. It's lowered in much the same way as the intrinsic is.

to be careful to emit landing pads that are always prepared to handle a
cleanup path. This is correct mostly because of the fix to the LLVM
inliner, r132200.

self-host. Hopefully these results hold up on different platforms.
I tried to keep the GNU ObjC runtime happy, but it's hard for me to test.
Reimplement how clang generates IR for exceptions. Instead of creating new
invoke destinations which sequentially chain to the previous destination,
push a more semantic representation of *why* we need the cleanup/catch/filter
behavior, then collect that information into a single landing pad upon request.
Also reorganizes how normal cleanups (i.e. cleanups triggered by non-exceptional
control flow) are generated, since it's actually fairly closely tied in with
the former. Remove the need to track which cleanup scope a block is associated
with.
Document a lot of previously poorly-understood (by me, at least) behavior.
The new framework implements the Horrible Hack (tm), which requires every
landing pad to have a catch-all so that inlining will work. Clang no longer
requires the Horrible Hack just to make exceptions flow correctly within
a function, however. The HH is an unfortunate requirement of LLVM's EH IR.

__cxa_guard_abort along the exceptional edge into (in effect) a nested
"try" that rethrows after aborting. Fixes PR7144 and the remaining
Boost.ProgramOptions failures, along with the regressions that r103880
caused.
The crucial difference between this and r103880 is that we now follow
LLVM's little dance with the llvm.eh.exception and llvm.eh.selector
calls, then use _Unwind_Resume_or_Rethrow to rethrow.
