When a device function calls a host function or vice versa, this is wrong-sided
reference. Currently clang immediately diagnose it. This is different from nvcc
behavior, where it is diagnosed only if the function is really emitted.
Current clang behavior causes false alarms for valid use cases.
This patch let clang always defer diagnostics for wrong-sided
reference.

Summary:
Emitting deferred diagnostics during codegen was a hack. It did work,
but usability was poor, both for us as compiler devs and for users. We
don't codegen if there are any sema errors, so for users this meant that
they wouldn't see deferred errors if there were any non-deferred errors.
For devs, this meant that we had to carefully split up our tests so that
when we tested deferred errors, we didn't emit any non-deferred errors.
This change moves checking for deferred errors into Sema. See the big
comment in SemaCUDA.cpp for an overview of the idea.
This checking adds overhead to compilation, because we have to maintain
a partial call graph. As a result, this change makes deferred errors a
CUDA-only concept (whereas before they were a general concept). If
anyone else wants to use this framework for something other than CUDA,
we can generalize at that time.
This patch makes the minimal set of test changes -- after this lands,
I'll go back through and do a cleanup of the tests that we no longer
have to split up.

Previously, this was an immediate, don't pass go, don't collect $200
error. But this precludes us from writing code like
__host__ __device__ void launch_kernel() {
kernel<<<...>>>();
}
Such code isn't wrong, following our notions of right and wrong in CUDA,
unless it's codegen'ed.
