to reflect the new license.
We understand that people may be surprised that we're moving the header
entirely to discuss the new license. We checked this carefully with the
Foundation's lawyer and we believe this is the correct approach.
Essentially, all code in the project is now made available by the LLVM
project under our new license, so you will see that the license headers
include that license only. Some of our contributors have contributed
code under our old license, and accordingly, we have retained a copy of
our old license notice in the top-level files in each project and
repository.

Summary:
Convert clang::LangAS to a strongly typed enum
Currently both clang AST address spaces and target specific address spaces
are represented as unsigned which can lead to subtle errors if the wrong
type is passed. It is especially confusing in the CodeGen files as it is
not possible to see what kind of address space should be passed to a
function without looking at the implementation.
I originally made this change for our LLVM fork for the CHERI architecture
where we make extensive use of address spaces to differentiate between
capabilities and pointers. When merging the upstream changes I usually
run into some test failures or runtime crashes because the wrong kind of
address space is passed to a function. By converting the LangAS enum to a
C++11 we can catch these errors at compile time. Additionally, it is now
obvious from the function signature which kind of address space it expects.
I found the following errors while writing this patch:
- ItaniumRecordLayoutBuilder::LayoutField was passing a clang AST address
space to TargetInfo::getPointer{Width,Align}()
- TypePrinter::printAttributedAfter() prints the numeric value of the
clang AST address space instead of the target address space.
However, this code is not used so I kept the current behaviour
- initializeForBlockHeader() in CGBlocks.cpp was passing
LangAS::opencl_generic to TargetInfo::getPointer{Width,Align}()
- CodeGenFunction::EmitBlockLiteral() was passing a AST address space to
TargetInfo::getPointerWidth()
- CGOpenMPRuntimeNVPTX::translateParameter() passed a target address space
to Qualifiers::addAddressSpace()
- CGOpenMPRuntimeNVPTX::getParameterAddress() was using
llvm::Type::getPointerTo() with a AST address space
- clang_getAddressSpace() returns either a LangAS or a target address
space. As this is exposed to C I have kept the current behaviour and
added a comment stating that it is probably not correct.
Other than this the patch should not cause any functional changes.

the interface.
The ultimate goal here is to make it easier to do some more interesting
things in constant emission, like emit constant initializers that have
ignorable side-effects, or doing the majority of an initialization
in-place and then patching up the last few things with calls. But for
now this is mostly just a refactoring.
