The personality routine currently lives in the LandingPadInst.
This isn't desirable because:
- All LandingPadInsts in the same function must have the same
personality routine. This means that each LandingPadInst beyond the
first has an operand which produces no additional information.
- There is ongoing work to introduce EH IR constructs other than
LandingPadInst. Moving the personality routine off of any one
particular Instruction and onto the parent function seems a lot better
than have N different places a personality function can sneak onto an
exceptional function.

It is intended to be used for a family of personality functions that
have similar IR preparation requirements. Typically when interoperating
with MSVC personality functions, bits of functionality need to be
outlined from the main function into helper functions. There is also
usually more than one landing pad per invoke, which does not match the
LLVM IR landingpad representation.
None of this is implemented yet. This change just adds a new enum that
is active for *-windows-msvc and delegates to the EH removal preparation
pass. No functionality change for other targets.

comparison is in a different basic block from the branch. In such
cases, the comparison's operands may not have initialized virtual
registers available.
