Summary:
This lets you write, e.g.
uint3 a = threadIdx;
uint3 b = blockIdx;
dim3 c = gridDim;
dim3 d = blockDim;
which is legal in nvcc, but was not legal in clang.
The fact that e.g. the type of threadIdx is not actually uint3 is still
observable, but now you have to try to observe it.

Added cuda_builtin_vars.h which implements built-in CUDA variables
using __declattr(property).
Fields of built-in variables (except for warpSize) are implemented
using __declattr(property) which replaces read/write of a member field
with a call to a getter/setter member function, in this case with
appropriate NVPTX builtin.
Added a test case to check diagnostics on attempt to construct or
improperly access a built-in variable.
