I disabled putting the new global into the same COMDAT as the function for now.
There's a fundamental problem when we inline references to the global but still
have the global in a COMDAT linked to the inlined function. Since this is only
an optimization there may be other versions of the COMDAT around that are
missing the new global and hell breaks loose at link time.
I hope the chromium build doesn't break this time :)

This broke the Chromium build. Links were failing with messages like:
obj/dbus/libdbus_test_support.a(obj/dbus/dbus_test_support.mock_object_proxy.o):../../dbus/mock_object_proxy.cc:function dbus::MockObjectProxy::Detach(): warning: relocation refers to discarded section
/usr/local/google/work/chromium/src/third_party/binutils/Linux_x64/Release/bin/ld.gold: error: treating warnings as errors

Instead of creating a copy on the stack just stash them in a private
constant global. This saves both the copying overhead and the stack
space, and gives the optimizer more room to constant fold.
This tries to make array temporaries more similar to regular arrays,
they can't use the same logic because a temporary has no VarDecl to be
bound to so we roll our own version here.
The original use case for this optimization was code like
for (int i : {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 10})
foo(i);
where without this patch (assuming that the loop is not unrolled) we
would alloca an array on the stack, copy the 10 values over and
iterate on that. With this patch we put the array in .text use it
directly. Apart from that case this helps on virtually any passing of
a constant std::initializer_list as a function argument.

CodeGen assumed that a compound literal with array type should have a
corresponding LLVM IR array type.
We had two bugs in this area:
- Zero sized arrays in compound literals would lead to the creation of
an opaque type. This is unnecessary, we should just create an array
type with a bound of zero.
- Funny record types (like unions) lead to exotic IR types for compound
literals. In this case, CodeGen must be prepared to deal with the
possibility that it might not have an array IR type.
This fixes PR21912.

C++, which means:
- binding the temporary as needed in Sema, so that we generate the
appropriate call to the destructor, and
- emitting the compound literal into the appropriate location for
the aggregate, rather than trying to emit it as a temporary and
memcpy() it.
Fixes PR10138 / <rdar://problem/9615901>.
