- We do this when it is easy to determine that the backend will pass them on
the stack properly by itself.
Currently LLVM codegen is really bad in some cases with byval, for example, on
the test case here (which is derived from Sema code, which likes to pass
SourceLocations around)::
struct s47 { unsigned a; };
void f47(int,int,int,int,int,int,struct s47);
void test47(int a, struct s47 b) { f47(a, a, a, a, a, a, b); }
we used to emit code like this::
...
movl %esi, -8(%rbp)
movl -8(%rbp), %ecx
movl %ecx, (%rsp)
...
to handle moving the struct onto the stack, which is just appalling.
Now we generate::
movl %esi, (%rsp)
which seems better, no?

optional argument passed through the variadic ellipsis)
potentially affects how we need to lower it. Propagate
this information down to the various getFunctionInfo(...)
overloads on CodeGenTypes. Furthermore, rename those
overloads to clarify their distinct purposes, and make
sure we're calling the right one in the right place.
This has a nice side-effect of making it easier to construct
a function type, since the 'variadic' bit is no longer
separable.
This shouldn't really change anything for our existing
platforms, with one minor exception --- we should now call
variadic ObjC methods with the ... in the "right place"
(see the test case), which I guess matters for anyone
running GNUStep on MIPS. Mostly it's just a substantial
clean-up.

Also use this to do a better job of selecting soft FP settings.

is inserted before the real argument. Padding is needed to ensure the backend
reads from or writes to the correct argument slots when the original alignment
of a byval structure is unavailable due to flattening.

- Remodel Expr::EvaluateAsInt to behave like the other EvaluateAs* functions,
and add Expr::EvaluateKnownConstInt to capture the current fold-or-assert
behaviour.
- Factor out evaluation of bitfield bit widths.
- Fix a few places which would evaluate an expression twice: once to determine
whether it is a constant expression, then again to get the value.

if the definition has a non-variadic prototype with compatible
parameters. Therefore, the default rule for such calls must be to
use a non-variadic convention. Achieve this by casting the callee to
the function type with which it is required to be compatible, unless
the target specifically opts out and insists that unprototyped calls
should use the variadic rules. The only case of that I'm aware of is
the x86-64 convention, which passes arguments the same way in both
cases but also sets a small amount of extra information; here we seek
to maintain compatibility with GCC, which does set this when calling
an unprototyped function.
