A quick contrast of this ABI with the currently-implemented ABI:
- Allocation is implicitly managed by the lowering passes, which is fine
for frontends that are fine with assuming that allocation cannot fail.
This assumption is necessary to implement dynamic allocas anyway.
- The lowering attempts to fit the coroutine frame into an opaque,
statically-sized buffer before falling back on allocation; the same
buffer must be provided to every resume point. A buffer must be at
least pointer-sized.
- The resume and destroy functions have been combined; the continuation
function takes a parameter indicating whether it has succeeded.
- Conversely, every suspend point begins its own continuation function.
- The continuation function pointer is directly returned to the caller
instead of being stored in the frame. The continuation can therefore
directly destroy the frame when exiting the coroutine instead of having
to leave it in a defunct state.
- Other values can be returned directly to the caller instead of going
through a promise allocation. The frontend provides a "prototype"
function declaration from which the type, calling convention, and
attributes of the continuation functions are taken.
- On the caller side, the frontend can generate natural IR that directly
uses the continuation functions as long as it prevents IPO with the
coroutine until lowering has happened. In combination with the point
above, the frontend is almost totally in charge of the ABI of the
coroutine.
- Unique-yield coroutines are given some special treatment.

Summary:
A recent addition to Coroutines TS (https://wg21.link/p0913) adds a pre-defined coroutine noop_coroutine that does nothing.
To implement this feature, we implemented an llvm.coro.noop intrinsic that returns a coroutine handle to a coroutine that does nothing when resumed or destroyed.

Summary:
The purpose of coro.end intrinsic is to allow frontends to mark the cleanup and
other code that is only relevant during the initial invocation of the coroutine
and should not be present in resume and destroy parts.
In landing pads coro.end is replaced with an appropriate instruction to unwind to
caller. The handling of coro.end differs depending on whether the target is
using landingpad or WinEH exception model.
For landingpad based exception model, it is expected that frontend uses the
`coro.end`_ intrinsic as follows:
```
ehcleanup:
%InResumePart = call i1 @llvm.coro.end(i8* null, i1 true)
br i1 %InResumePart, label %eh.resume, label %cleanup.cont
cleanup.cont:
; rest of the cleanup
eh.resume:
%exn = load i8*, i8** %exn.slot, align 8
%sel = load i32, i32* %ehselector.slot, align 4
%lpad.val = insertvalue { i8*, i32 } undef, i8* %exn, 0
%lpad.val29 = insertvalue { i8*, i32 } %lpad.val, i32 %sel, 1
resume { i8*, i32 } %lpad.val29
```
The `CoroSpit` pass replaces `coro.end` with ``True`` in the resume functions,
thus leading to immediate unwind to the caller, whereas in start function it
is replaced with ``False``, thus allowing to proceed to the rest of the cleanup
code that is only needed during initial invocation of the coroutine.
For Windows Exception handling model, a frontend should attach a funclet bundle
referring to an enclosing cleanuppad as follows:
```
ehcleanup:
%tok = cleanuppad within none []
%unused = call i1 @llvm.coro.end(i8* null, i1 true) [ "funclet"(token %tok) ]
cleanupret from %tok unwind label %RestOfTheCleanup
```
The `CoroSplit` pass, if the funclet bundle is present, will insert
``cleanupret from %tok unwind to caller`` before
the `coro.end`_ intrinsic and will remove the rest of the block.

Summary:
[Coroutines] Part 9: Add cleanup subfunction.
This patch completes coroutine heap allocation elision. Now, the heap elision example from docs\Coroutines.rst compiles and produces expected result (see test/Transform/Coroutines/ex3.ll)
Intrinsic Changes:
* coro.free gets a token parameter tying it to coro.id to allow reliably discovering all coro.frees associated with a particular coroutine.
* coro.id gets an extra parameter that points back to a coroutine function. This allows to check whether a coro.id describes the enclosing function or it belongs to a different function that was later inlined.
CoroSplit now creates three subfunctions:
# f$resume - resume logic
# f$destroy - cleanup logic, followed by a deallocation code
# f$cleanup - just the cleanup code
CoroElide pass during devirtualization replaces coro.destroy with either f$destroy or f$cleanup depending whether heap elision is performed or not.
Other fixes, improvements:
* Fixed buglet in Shape::buildFrame that was not creating coro.save properly if coroutine has more than one suspend point.
* Switched to using variable width suspend index field (no longer limited to 32 bit index field can be as little as i1 or as large as i<whatever-size_t-is>)

Summary:
1. Make coroutine representation more robust against optimization that may duplicate instruction by introducing coro.id intrinsics that returns a token that will get fed into coro.alloc and coro.begin. Due to coro.id returning a token, it won't get duplicated and can be used as reliable indicator of coroutine identify when a particular coroutine call gets inlined.
2. Move last three arguments of coro.begin into coro.id as they will be shared if coro.begin will get duplicated.
3. doc + test + code updated to support the new intrinsic.

Summary:
A particular coroutine usage pattern, where a coroutine is created, manipulated and
destroyed by the same calling function, is common for coroutines implementing
RAII idiom and is suitable for allocation elision optimization which avoid
dynamic allocation by storing the coroutine frame as a static `alloca` in its
caller.
coro.free and coro.alloc intrinsics are used to indicate which code needs to be suppressed
when dynamic allocation elision happens:
```
entry:
%elide = call i8* @llvm.coro.alloc()
%need.dyn.alloc = icmp ne i8* %elide, null
br i1 %need.dyn.alloc, label %coro.begin, label %dyn.alloc
dyn.alloc:
%alloc = call i8* @CustomAlloc(i32 4)
br label %coro.begin
coro.begin:
%phi = phi i8* [ %elide, %entry ], [ %alloc, %dyn.alloc ]
%hdl = call i8* @llvm.coro.begin(i8* %phi, i32 0, i8* null,
i8* bitcast ([2 x void (%f.frame*)*]* @f.resumers to i8*))
```
and
```
%mem = call i8* @llvm.coro.free(i8* %hdl)
%need.dyn.free = icmp ne i8* %mem, null
br i1 %need.dyn.free, label %dyn.free, label %if.end
dyn.free:
call void @CustomFree(i8* %mem)
br label %if.end
if.end:
...
```
If heap allocation elision is performed, we replace coro.alloc with a static alloca on the caller frame and coro.free with null constant.
Also, we need to make sure that if there are any tail calls referencing the coroutine frame, we need to remote tail call attribute, since now coroutine frame lives on the stack.

This adds boilerplate code for all coroutine passes,
the passes are no-ops for now.
Also, a small test has been added to verify that passes execute in
the expected order or not at all if coroutine support is disabled.
