When predicting use-list order, we visit functions in reverse order
followed by `GlobalValue`s and write out use-lists at the first
opportunity. In the reader, this will translate to *after* the last use
has been added.
For this to work, we actually need to descend into `GlobalValue`s.
Added a targeted test in `use-list-order.ll` and `RUN` lines to the
newly passing tests in `test/Bitcode`.
There are two remaining failures in `test/Bitcode`:
- blockaddress.ll: I haven't thought through how to model the way
block addresses change the order of use-lists (or how to work around
it).
- metadata-2.ll: There's an old-style `@llvm.used` global array here
that I suspect the .ll parser isn't upgrading properly. When it
round-trips through bitcode, the .bc reader *does* upgrade it, so
the extra variable (`i8* null`) has an extra use, and the shuffle
vector doesn't match.
I think the fix is to upgrade old-style global arrays (or reject
them?) in the .ll parser.
This is part of PR5680.
