Peter Collingbourne d4135bbc30 DebugInfo: New metadata representation for global variables.
This patch reverses the edge from DIGlobalVariable to GlobalVariable.
This will allow us to more easily preserve debug info metadata when
manipulating global variables.

Fixes PR30362. A program for upgrading test cases is attached to that
bug.

Adrian Prantl 75819aedf6 [PR27284] Reverse the ownership between DICompileUnit and DISubprogram.
Currently each Function points to a DISubprogram and DISubprogram has a
scope field. For member functions the scope is a DICompositeType. DIScopes
point to the DICompileUnit to facilitate type uniquing.

Distinct DISubprograms (with isDefinition: true) are not part of the type
hierarchy and cannot be uniqued. This change removes the subprograms
list from DICompileUnit and instead adds a pointer to the owning compile
unit to distinct DISubprograms. This would make it easy for ThinLTO to
strip unneeded DISubprograms and their transitively referenced debug info.

Motivation
----------

Materializing DISubprograms is currently the most expensive operation when
doing a ThinLTO build of clang.

We want the DISubprogram to be stored in a separate Bitcode block (or the
same block as the function body) so we can avoid having to expensively
deserialize all DISubprograms together with the global metadata. If a
function has been inlined into another subprogram we need to store a
reference the block containing the inlined subprogram.

Attached to https://llvm.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=27284 is a python script
that updates LLVM IR testcases to the new format.

Teresa Johnson 0e7c82cb69 [ThinLTO/LTO] Don't link in unneeded metadata
Summary:
Third patch split out from http://reviews.llvm.org/D14752.

Only map in needed DISubroutine metadata (imported or otherwise linked
in functions and other DISubroutine referenced by inlined instructions).
This is supported for ThinLTO, LTO and llvm-link --only-needed, with
associated tests for each one.

Depends on D14838.
