This patch introduces a class that can help to build tools that require cross
translation unit facilities. This class allows function definitions to be loaded
from external AST files based on an index. In order to use this functionality an
index is required. The index format is a flat text file but it might be
replaced with a different solution in the near future. USRs are used as names to
look up the functions definitions. This class also does caching to avoid
redundant loading of AST files.
Right now only function defnitions can be loaded using this API because this is
what the in progress cross translation unit feature of the Static Analyzer
requires. In to future this might be extended to classes, types etc.

Thanks for pointing this out, Stephen. I think this is right now -- I
attempted to try all four valid combinations with both the autoconf and
CMake builds.
See also LLVM changes to the configure script.

Per feedback from Chandler, it's better to have libraries with more specific functionality.
LibIndex will contain the indexing functionality of libclang, which includes USR generation.
llvm-svn: 188601
Libclang has a lot of functionality that is inaccessible.
The purpose of clangIDE is to move most of the functionality of libclang to it so we
can expose it and have libclang be more of a thin C wrapper over clangIDE.
Start by moving the USR generation functionality into clangIDE.

That commit added a new library just to hold the RawCommentList. I've
started a discussion on the commit thread about whether that is really
meritted -- it certainly doesn't seem necessary at this stage.
However, the immediate problem is that the AST library has a hard
dependency on the Comment library, but the dependencies were set up
completely backward. In addition to the layering violation, this had an
unfortunate effect if scattering the Comments library dependency
throughout the build system, but inconsistently so -- several parts of
the CMake dependencies were missing and only showed up due to transitive
deps or the fact that the target wasn't being built by tho bots.
It turns out that the Comments library can't (currently) be a well
formed layer *below* the AST library either, as it has an API that
accepts an ASTContext. That parameter is currently unused, so maybe that
was a mistake?
Anyways, it really seems like this is logically part of the AST --
that's the whole point of the ASTContext providing access to it as far
as I can tell -- so I've merged it into the AST library to solve the
immediate layering violation problems and remove some of the churn from
our library dependencies.

* Retain comments in the AST
* Serialize/deserialize comments
* Find comments attached to a certain Decl
* Expose raw comment text and SourceRange via libclang

Provides an API to run clang tools (FrontendActions) as standalone tools,
or repeatedly in-memory in a process. This is useful for unit-testing,
map-reduce style applications, source transformation daemons or command line
tools.
The ability to run over multiple translation units with different command
line arguments enables building up refactoring tools that need to apply
transformations across translation unit boundaries.
See tools/clang-check/ClangCheck.cpp for an example.

the new Objective-C NSArray/NSDictionary/NSNumber literal syntax.
This introduces a new library, libEdit, which provides a new way to support
migration of code that improves on the original ARC migrator. We now believe
that most of its functionality can be refactored into the existing libraries,
and thus this new library may shortly disappear.

the first step towards a standalone Clang tool infrastructure.
The plan is to make it easy to build command line tools that run over
the AST of source files in a project outside of the build system.

Eventually there will also be a lib/StaticAnalyzer/Frontend that will handle initialization and checker registration.
Yet another library to avoid cyclic dependencies between Core and Checkers.

layout. :)
Rename the 'EntoSA' directories to 'StaticAnalyzer'.
Internally we will still use the 'ento' namespace
for the analyzer engine (unless there are further
sabre rattlings...).

r110903 introduced a dependency from Frontend to every library that
declared an Action by introducing Action references that previously
resided in the driver in the file ExecuteCompilerInvocation.cpp.
This patch moves ExecuteCompilerInvocation to a new library named
FrontendTool which is intended to bear these dependencies.

(1) libAnalysis is a generic analysis library that can be used by
Sema. It defines the CFG, basic dataflow analysis primitives, and
inexpensive flow-sensitive analyses (e.g. LiveVariables).
(2) libChecker contains the guts of the static analyzer, incuding the
path-sensitive analysis engine and domain-specific checks.
Now any clients that want to use the frontend to build their own tools
don't need to link in the entire static analyzer.
This change exposes various obvious cleanups that can be made to the
layout of files and headers in libChecker. More changes pending. :)
This change also exposed a layering violation between AnalysisContext
and MemRegion. BlockInvocationContext shouldn't explicitly know about
BlockDataRegions. For now I've removed the BlockDataRegion* from
BlockInvocationContext (removing context-sensitivity; although this
wasn't used yet). We need to have a better way to extend
BlockInvocationContext (and any LocationContext) to add
context-sensitivty.

Its purpose is to provide the basic infrastructure for cross-translation-unit analysis like indexing, refactoring, etc.
Currently it is very "primitive" and with no type-names support. It can provide functionality like
"show me all references of this function from these translation units".
