Because PNaCl bitcode must be target-independent, it uses some
different bitcode representations from other targets (e.g. byval and
sret for structures). This means that without additional type
information, it cannot meet some native ABI requirements for some
targets (e.g. passing structures containing unions by value on
x86-64). To allow generation of code which uses the correct native
ABIs, we also support triples such as x86_64-nacl, which uses
target-dependent IR (as opposed to le32-nacl, which uses byval and
sret).
To allow interoperation between the two types of code, this patch adds
a calling convention attribute to be used in code compiled with the
target-dependent triple, which will generate code using the le32-style
bitcode. This calling convention does not need to be explicitly
supported in the backend because it determines bitcode representation
rather than native conventions (the backend just needs to undersand
how to handle byval and sret for the Native Client OS).
This patch implements __attribute__((pnaclcall)) to generate calls in
bitcode according to the le32 bitcode conventions, an attribute which
is accepted by any Native Client target, but issues a warning
otherwise.

contain call to 'super' if they have 'super' class and it has the method
with this attribute set. This is wip. // rdar://6386358

function arguments and arguments for variadic functions are of a particular
type which is determined by some other argument to the same function call.
Usecases include:
* MPI library implementations, where these attributes enable checking that
buffer type matches the passed MPI_Datatype;
* for HDF5 library there is a similar usecase as MPI;
* checking types of variadic functions' arguments for functions like
fcntl() and ioctl().

variables that have static storage duration, it removes debug info on the
emitted initializer function but not all debug info about this variable.

Make handler functions for thread safety attributes consistent with other attributes handler functions
by removing the bool parameter from some of the thread safety attributes handler functions and extracting
common checks out of different handler functions.

This adds support for the tls_model attribute. This allows the user to
choose a TLS model that is better than what LLVM would select by
default. For example, a variable might be declared as:
__thread int x __attribute__((tls_model("initial-exec")));
if it will not be used in a shared library that is dlopen'ed.
This depends on LLVM r159077.

The original r158700 caused crashes in the gcc test suite,
g++.abi/vtable3a.C among others. It also caused failures in the libc++
test suite.

Note that this is mostly a structural patch that handles the change from the old
spelling style to the new one. One consequence of this is that all AT_foo_bar
enum values have changed to not be based off of the first spelling, but rather
off of the class name, so they are now AT_FooBar and the like (a straw poll on
IRC showed support for this). Apologies for code churn.
Most attributes have GNU spellings as a temporary solution until everything else
is sorted out (such as a Keyword spelling, which I intend to add if someone else
doesn't beat me to it). This is definitely a WIP.
I've also killed BaseCheckAttr since it was unused, and I had to go through
every attribute anyway.

* Escape #, < and @ symbols where Doxygen would try to interpret them;
* Fix several function param documentation where names had got out of sync;
* Delete param documentation referring to parameters that no longer exist.

In addition, I've made the pointer and reference typedef 'void' rather than T*
just so they can't get misused. I would've omitted them entirely but
std::distance likes them to be there even if it doesn't use them.
This rolls back r155808 and r155869.

Currently cold functions are marked with the "optsize" attribute in CodeGen
so they are always optimized for size. The hot attribute is just ignored,
LLVM doesn't have a way to express hotness at the moment.
