Summary:
This is the second attempt of r333500 (Update NRVO logic to support early return).
The previous one was reverted for a miscompilation for an incorrect NRVO set up on templates such as:
```
struct Foo {};
template <typename T>
T bar() {
T t;
if (false)
return T();
return t;
}
```
Where, `t` is marked as non-NRVO variable before its instantiation. However, while its instantiation, it's left an NRVO candidate, turned into an NRVO variable later.

Summary:
The previous implementation misses an opportunity to apply NRVO (Named Return Value
Optimization) below. That discourages user to write early return code.
```
struct Foo {};
Foo f(bool b) {
if (b)
return Foo();
Foo oo;
return oo;
}
```
That is, we can/should apply RVO for a local variable if:
* It's directly returned by at least one return statement.
* And, all reachable return statements in its scope returns the variable directly.
While, the previous implementation disables the RVO in a scope if there are multiple return
statements that refers different variables.
On the new algorithm, local variables are in NRVO_Candidate state at first, and a return
statement changes it to NRVO_Disabled for all visible variables but the return statement refers.
Then, at the end of the function AST traversal, NRVO is enabled for variables in NRVO_Candidate
state and refers from at least one return statement.

If a dtor has no interesting members, then it ends up being nothrow,
which affects the generated IR. Modify some tests to tolerate this
difference between C++03 and C++11.

This reverts commit r234700. It turns out that the lifetime markers
were not the cause of Chromium failing but a bug which was uncovered by
optimizations exposed by the markers.

Now that TailRecursionElimination has been fixed with r222354, the
threshold on size for lifetime marker insertion can be removed. This
only affects named temporary though, as the patch for unnamed temporaries
is still in progress.
My previous commit (r222993) was not handling debuginfo correctly, but
this could only be seen with some asan tests. Basically, lifetime markers
are just instrumentation for the compiler's usage and should not affect
debug information; however, the cleanup infrastructure was assuming it
contained only destructors, i.e. actual code to be executed, and was
setting the breakpoint for the end of the function to the closing '}', and
not the return statement, in order to show some destructors have been
called when leaving the function. This is wrong when the cleanups are only
lifetime markers, and this is now fixed.

Boostrapping LLVM+Clang+LLDB without threshold on object size for
lifetime markers insertion has shown there was no significant change
in compile time, so let the stack slot colorizer do its optimization
for all slots.

Because references must be initialized using some evaluated expression, they
must point to something, and a callee can assume the reference parameter is
dereferenceable. Taking advantage of a new attribute just added to LLVM, mark
them as such.
Because dereferenceability in addrspace(0) implies nonnull in the backend, we
don't need both attributes. However, we need to know the size of the object to
use the dereferenceable attribute, so for incomplete types we still emit only
nonnull.

will be represented in the IR as a plain "i32" type. This causes the
tests to spuriously fail on platforms where int is not a 32-bit type,
or where the ABI requires attributes like "signext" or "zeroext" to
be used.
This patch adds -triple or -target parameters to force those tests
to use the i386-unknown-unknown target.

This model uses the 'landingpad' instruction, which is pinned to the top of the
landing pad. (A landing pad is defined as the destination of the unwind branch
of an invoke instruction.) All of the information needed to generate the correct
exception handling metadata during code generation is encoded into the
landingpad instruction.
The new 'resume' instruction takes the place of the llvm.eh.resume intrinsic
call. It's lowered in much the same way as the intrinsic is.

to be careful to emit landing pads that are always prepared to handle a
cleanup path. This is correct mostly because of the fix to the LLVM
inliner, r132200.

NRVO candidate for a return statement, to
Sema::getCopyElisionCandidate(), and teach it enough to also determine
the NRVO candidate for a throw expression. We still don't use the
latter information, however.
Along the way, implement core issue 1148, which eliminates copy
elision from catch parameters and clarifies that copy elision cannot
occur from function parameters (which we already implemented).

mostly in avoiding unnecessary work at compile time but also in producing more
sensible block orderings.
Move the destructor cleanups for local variables over to use lazy cleanups.
Eventually all cleanups will do this; for now we have some awkward code
duplication.
Tell IR generation just to never produce landing pads in -fno-exceptions.
This is a much more comprehensive solution to a problem which previously was
half-solved by checks in most cleanup-generation spots.

self-host. Hopefully these results hold up on different platforms.
I tried to keep the GNU ObjC runtime happy, but it's hard for me to test.
Reimplement how clang generates IR for exceptions. Instead of creating new
invoke destinations which sequentially chain to the previous destination,
push a more semantic representation of *why* we need the cleanup/catch/filter
behavior, then collect that information into a single landing pad upon request.
Also reorganizes how normal cleanups (i.e. cleanups triggered by non-exceptional
control flow) are generated, since it's actually fairly closely tied in with
the former. Remove the need to track which cleanup scope a block is associated
with.
Document a lot of previously poorly-understood (by me, at least) behavior.
The new framework implements the Horrible Hack (tm), which requires every
landing pad to have a catch-all so that inlining will work. Clang no longer
requires the Horrible Hack just to make exceptions flow correctly within
a function, however. The HH is an unfortunate requirement of LLVM's EH IR.

return statements. We perform NRVO only when all of the return
statements in the function return the same variable. Fixes some link
failures in Boost.Interprocess (which is relying on NRVO), and
probably improves performance for some C++ applications.
