the build
When Clang loads the module, it verifies the user source files that the module
was built from. If any file was changed, the module is rebuilt. There are two
problems with this:
1. correctness: we don't verify system files (there are too many of them, and
stat'ing all of them would take a lot of time);
2. performance: the same module file is verified again and again during a
single build.
This change allows the build system to optimize source file verification. The
idea is based on the fact that while the project is being built, the source
files don't change. This allows us to verify the module only once during a
single build session. The build system passes a flag,
-fbuild-session-timestamp=, to inform Clang of the time when the build started.
The build system also requests to enable this feature by passing
-fmodules-validate-once-per-build-session. If these flags are not passed, the
behavior is not changed. When Clang verifies the module the first time, it
writes out a timestamp file. Then, when Clang loads the module the second
time, it finds a timestamp file, so it can compare the verification timestamp
of the module with the time when the build started. If the verification
timestamp is too old, the module is verified again, and the timestamp file is
updated.

A return type is the declared or deduced part of the function type specified in
the declaration.
A result type is the (potentially adjusted) type of the value of an expression
that calls the function.
Rule of thumb:
* Declarations have return types and parameters.
* Expressions have result types and arguments.

This allows resolving top-header filenames of modules to FileEntries when
we need them, not eagerly.
Note that that this breaks ABI for libclang functions
clang_Module_getTopLevelHeader / clang_Module_getNumTopLevelHeaders
but this is fine because they are experimental and not widely used yet.

It passes to the visitor, that the caller provides, CXCursor_InclusionDirective cursors for
all the include directives in a particular file.

Uses of clang_getSpellingLocation should eventually move to calling
clang_getFileLocation, and clang_getSpellingLocation should do what
its name represents and actually point at the 'spelling' location, e.g.
inside a macro definition if the spelling of a token came from that.

that were already parsed in the same "indexing session".
An indexing session is defined as using the same CXIndexAction object
for multiple clang_indexSourceFile calls.
Passing CXIndexOpt_SkipParsedBodiesInSession as an indexing option will
enable the mode where we try to skip bodies that were already parsed in
another translation unit.
If a function's body was skipped, the "flags" field in the CXIdxDeclInfo
structure will have "CXIdxDeclFlag_Skipped" bit was set.
