32-bit x86 MSVC-style exceptions are functionaly similar to 64-bit, but
they take no arguments. Instead, they implicitly use the value of EBP
passed in by the caller as a pointer to the parent's frame. In LLVM, we
can represent this as llvm.frameaddress(1), and feed that into all of
our calls to llvm.framerecover.
The next steps are:
- Add an alloca to the fs:00 linked list of handlers
- Add something like llvm.sjlj.lsda or generalize it to store in the
alloca
- Move state number calculation to WinEHPrepare, arrange for
FunctionLoweringInfo to call it
- Use the state numbers to insert explicit loads and stores in the IR

In particular, this handles SSA values that are live *out* of a handler.
The existing code only handles values that are live *in* to a handler.
It also handles phi nodes in the block where normal control should
resume after the end of a catch handler. When EH return points have phi
nodes, we need to split the return edge. It is impossible for phi
elimination to emit copies in the previous block if that block gets
outlined. The indirectbr that we leave in the function is only notional,
and is eliminated from the MachineFunction CFG early on.
