Spin-off from D75407. As described there, ConstantFoldConstant()
currently returns null for non-ConstantExpr/ConstantVector inputs,
but otherwise always returns non-null, independently of whether
any folding has happened or not.
This is confusing and makes consumer code more complicated.
I would expect either that ConstantFoldConstant() returns only if
it actually folded something, or that it always returns non-null.
I'm going to the latter possibility here, which appears to be more
useful considering existing usage.

Now that we've moved to C++14, we no longer need the llvm::make_unique
implementation from STLExtras.h. This patch is a mechanical replacement
of (hopefully) all the llvm::make_unique instances across the monorepo.

When evaluating a store through a bitcast, the evaluator tries to move the
bitcast from the pointer onto the stored value. If the cast is invalid, it
tries to "introspect" the type to get a valid cast by obtaining a pointer to
the initial element (if the type is nested, this may require walking several
initial elements).
In some situations it is possible to get a bitcast on a load (e.g. with
unions, where the bitcast may not be the same type as the store). However,
equivalent logic to the store to introspect the type is missing. This patch
add this logic.
Note, when developing the patch I was unhappy with adding similar logic
directly to the load case as it could get out of step. Instead, I have
abstracted the "introspection" into a helper function, with the specifics
being handled by a passed-in lambda function.

This cleans up all GetElementPtr creation in LLVM to explicitly pass a

to reflect the new license.
We understand that people may be surprised that we're moving the header
entirely to discuss the new license. We checked this carefully with the
Foundation's lawyer and we believe this is the correct approach.
Essentially, all code in the project is now made available by the LLVM
project under our new license, so you will see that the license headers
include that license only. Some of our contributors have contributed
code under our old license, and accordingly, we have retained a copy of
our old license notice in the top-level files in each project and
repository.

This is a bit awkward in a handful of places where we didn't even have
an instruction and now we have to see if we can build one. But on the
whole, this seems like a win and at worst a reasonable cost for removing
`TerminatorInst`.
All of this is part of the removal of `TerminatorInst` from the
`Instruction` type hierarchy.

The evaluator goes through BB and creates global vars as temporary values to evaluate
results of LLVM instructions. It creates undef for alloca, however it assumes alloca
in addr space 0. If the next instruction is addrspace cast to 0, then we get an invalid
cast instruction.
This patch let the temp global var have an address space matching alloca addr space,
so that the valuation can be done.

The DEBUG() macro is very generic so it might clash with other projects.
The renaming was done as follows:
- git grep -l 'DEBUG' | xargs sed -i 's/\bDEBUG\s\?(/LLVM_DEBUG(/g'
- git diff -U0 master | ../clang/tools/clang-format/clang-format-diff.py -i -p1 -style LLVM
- Manual change to APInt
- Manually chage DOCS as regex doesn't match it.
In the transition period the DEBUG() macro is still present and aliased
to the LLVM_DEBUG() one.

This patch implements Chandler's idea [0] for supporting languages that
require support for infinite loops with side effects, such as Rust, providing
part of a solution to bug 965 [1].
Specifically, it adds an `llvm.sideeffect()` intrinsic, which has no actual
effect, but which appears to optimization passes to have obscure side effects,
such that they don't optimize away loops containing it. It also teaches
several optimization passes to ignore this intrinsic, so that it doesn't
significantly impact optimization in most cases.
As discussed on llvm-dev [2], this patch is the first of two major parts.
The second part, to change LLVM's semantics to have defined behavior
on infinite loops by default, with a function attribute for opting into
potential-undefined-behavior, will be implemented and posted for review in
a separate patch.

I did this a long time ago with a janky python script, but now
clang-format has built-in support for this. I fed clang-format every
line with a #include and let it re-sort things according to the precise
LLVM rules for include ordering baked into clang-format these days.
I've reverted a number of files where the results of sorting includes
isn't healthy. Either places where we have legacy code relying on
particular include ordering (where possible, I'll fix these separately)
or where we have particular formatting around #include lines that
I didn't want to disturb in this patch.
This patch is *entirely* mechanical. If you get merge conflicts or
anything, just ignore the changes in this patch and run clang-format
over your #include lines in the files.
Sorry for any noise here, but it is important to keep these things
stable. I was seeing an increasing number of patches with irrelevant
re-ordering of #include lines because clang-format was used. This patch
at least isolates that churn, makes it easy to skip when resolving
conflicts, and gets us to a clean baseline (again).

and to expose a handle to represent the actual case rather than having
the iterator return a reference to itself.
All of this allows the iterator to be used with common STL facilities,
standard algorithms, etc.
Doing this exposed some missing facilities in the iterator facade that
I've fixed and required some work to the actual iterator to fully
support the necessary API.

A ConstantVector can have ConstantExpr operands and vice versa.
However, the folder had no ability to fold ConstantVectors which, in
some cases, was an optimization barrier.
Instead, rephrase the folder in terms of Constants instead of
ConstantExprs and teach callers how to deal with failure.

Summary:
Fixes PR26774.
If you're aware of the issue, feel free to skip the "Motivation"
section and jump directly to "This patch".
Motivation:
I define "refinement" as discarding behaviors from a program that the
optimizer has license to discard. So transforming:
```
void f(unsigned x) {
unsigned t = 5 / x;
(void)t;
}
```
to
```
void f(unsigned x) { }
```
is refinement, since the behavior went from "if x == 0 then undefined
else nothing" to "nothing" (the optimizer has license to discard
undefined behavior).
Refinement is a fundamental aspect of many mid-level optimizations done
by LLVM. For instance, transforming `x == (x + 1)` to `false` also
involves refinement since the expression's value went from "if x is
`undef` then { `true` or `false` } else { `false` }" to "`false`" (by
definition, the optimizer has license to fold `undef` to any non-`undef`
value).
Unfortunately, refinement implies that the optimizer cannot assume
that the implementation of a function it can see has all of the
behavior an unoptimized or a differently optimized version of the same
function can have. This is a problem for functions with comdat
linkage, where a function can be replaced by an unoptimized or a
differently optimized version of the same source level function.
For instance, FunctionAttrs cannot assume a comdat function is
actually `readnone` even if it does not have any loads or stores in
it; since there may have been loads and stores in the "original
function" that were refined out in the currently visible variant, and
at the link step the linker may in fact choose an implementation with
a load or a store. As an example, consider a function that does two
atomic loads from the same memory location, and writes to memory only
if the two values are not equal. The optimizer is allowed to refine
this function by first CSE'ing the two loads, and the folding the
comparision to always report that the two values are equal. Such a
refined variant will look like it is `readonly`. However, the
unoptimized version of the function can still write to memory (since
the two loads //can// result in different values), and selecting the
unoptimized version at link time will retroactively invalidate
transforms we may have done under the assumption that the function
does not write to memory.
Note: this is not just a problem with atomics or with linking
differently optimized object files. See PR26774 for more realistic
examples that involved neither.
This patch:
This change introduces a new set of linkage types, predicated as
`GlobalValue::mayBeDerefined` that returns true if the linkage type
allows a function to be replaced by a differently optimized variant at
link time. It then changes a set of IPO passes to bail out if they see
such a function.

Add a common parent class for ConstantArray, ConstantVector, and
ConstantStruct called ConstantAggregate. These are the aggregate
subclasses of Constant that take operands.
This is mainly a cleanup, adding common `isa` target and removing
duplicated code. However, it also simplifies caching which constants
point transitively at `GlobalValue` (a possible future direction).
