Introduce CXXStdInitializerListExpr node, representing the implicit
construction of a std::initializer_list<T> object from its underlying array.
The AST representation of such an expression goes from an InitListExpr with a
flag set, to a CXXStdInitializerListExpr containing a MaterializeTemporaryExpr
containing an InitListExpr (possibly wrapped in a CXXBindTemporaryExpr).
This more detailed representation has several advantages, the most important of
which is that the new MaterializeTemporaryExpr allows us to directly model
lifetime extension of the underlying temporary array. Using that, this patch
*drastically* simplifies the IR generation of this construct, provides IR
generation support for nested global initializer_list objects, fixes several
bugs where the destructors for the underlying array would accidentally not get
invoked, and provides constant expression evaluation support for
std::initializer_list objects.

handle temporaries which have been lifetime-extended to static storage duration
within constant expressions. This correctly handles nested lifetime extension
(through reference members of aggregates in aggregate initializers) but
non-constant-expression emission hasn't yet been updated to do the same.

The most common (non-buggy) case are where such objects are used as
return expressions in bool-returning functions or as boolean function
arguments. In those cases I've used (& added if necessary) a named
function to provide the equivalent (or sometimes negative, depending on
convenient wording) test.
DiagnosticBuilder kept its implicit conversion operator owing to the
prevalent use of it in return statements.
One bug was found in ExprConstant.cpp involving a comparison of two
PointerUnions (PointerUnion did not previously have an operator==, so
instead both operands were converted to bool & then compared). A test
is included in test/SemaCXX/constant-expression-cxx1y.cpp for the fix
(adding operator== to PointerUnion in LLVM).

inefficient; we perform a linear scan of switch labels to find the one matching
the condition, and then walk the body looking for that label. Both parts should
be straightforward to optimize.

statement in constexpr functions. Everything which doesn't require variable
mutation is also allowed as an extension in C++11. 'void' becomes a literal
type to support constexpr functions which return 'void'.
