This reverts commit r189320.
Alexey Samsonov and Dmitry Vyukov presented some arguments for keeping
these around - though it still seems like those tasks could be solved by
a tool just using the symbol table. In a very small number of cases,
thunks may be inlined & debug info might be able to save profilers &
similar tools from misclassifying those cases as part of the caller.
The extra changes here plumb through the VarDecl for various cases to
CodeGenFunction - this provides better fidelity through a few APIs but
generally just causes the CGF::StartFunction to fallback to using the
name of the IR function as the name in the debug info.
The changes to debug-info-global-ctor-dtor.cpp seem like goodness. The
two names that go missing (in favor of only emitting those names as
linkage names) are names that can be demangled - emitting them only as
the linkage name should encourage tools to do just that.
Again, thanks to Dinesh Dwivedi for investigation/work on this issue.

This was added in r166676 based on PR13942 on the basis that tools may
need debug information for any executable code/function for some fairly
broad/non-specific purposes. It seems to me (as noted in PR14569) that
the major/only purpose is in backtraces, which should generally not
apply to thunks as they won't appear in the stack themselves. By
removing them we fix PR14569 and reduce the size of Clang's debug info.
Strangely enough this doesn't seem to have a substantial impact on
Clang's self-hosted debug info (at least looking at DWO file size) size
at all. Not sure if I failed to test this correctly but I only observed
a 0.004% change in DWO file size over Clang+LLVM.
With thanks to Dinesh Dwivedi for work on this PR.
