entire SCC before iterating on newly-introduced call edges resulting
from any inlined function bodies.
This more closely matches the behavior of the old PM's inliner. While it
wasn't really clear to me initially, this behavior is actually essential
to the inliner behaving reasonably in its current design.
Because the inliner is fundamentally a bottom-up inliner and all of its
cost modeling is designed around that it often runs into trouble within
an SCC where we don't have any meaningful bottom-up ordering to use. In
addition to potentially cyclic, infinite inlining that we block with the
inline history mechanism, it can also take seemingly simple call graph
patterns within an SCC and turn them into *insanely* large functions by
accidentally working top-down across the SCC without any of the
threshold limitations that traditional top-down inliners use.
Consider this diabolical monster.cpp file that Richard Smith came up
with to help demonstrate this issue:
```
template <int N> extern const char *str;
void g(const char *);
template <bool K, int N> void f(bool *B, bool *E) {
if (K)
g(str<N>);
if (B == E)
return;
if (*B)
f<true, N + 1>(B + 1, E);
else
f<false, N + 1>(B + 1, E);
}
template <> void f<false, MAX>(bool *B, bool *E) { return f<false, 0>(B, E); }
template <> void f<true, MAX>(bool *B, bool *E) { return f<true, 0>(B, E); }
extern bool *arr, *end;
void test() { f<false, 0>(arr, end); }
```
When compiled with '-DMAX=N' for various values of N, this will create an SCC
with a reasonably large number of functions. Previously, the inliner would try
to exhaust the inlining candidates in a single function before moving on. This,
unfortunately, turns it into a top-down inliner within the SCC. Because our
thresholds were never built for that, we will incrementally decide that it is
always worth inlining and proceed to flatten the entire SCC into that one
function.
What's worse, we'll then proceed to the next function, and do the exact same
thing except we'll skip the first function, and so on. And at each step, we'll
also make some of the constant factors larger, which is awesome.
The fix in this patch is the obvious one which makes the new PM's inliner use
the same technique used by the old PM: consider all the call edges across the
entire SCC before beginning to process call edges introduced by inlining. The
result of this is essentially to distribute the inlining across the SCC so that
every function incrementally grows toward the inline thresholds rather than
allowing the inliner to grow one of the functions vastly beyond the threshold.
The code for this is a bit awkward, but it works out OK.
We could consider in the future doing something more powerful here such as
prioritized order (via lowest cost and/or profile info) and/or a code-growth
budget per SCC. However, both of those would require really substantial work
both to design the system in a way that wouldn't break really useful
abstraction decomposition properties of the current inliner and to be tuned
across a reasonably diverse set of code and workloads. It also seems really
risky in many ways. I have only found a single real-world file that triggers
the bad behavior here and it is generated code that has a pretty pathological
pattern. I'm not worried about the inliner not doing an *awesome* job here as
long as it does *ok*. On the other hand, the cases that will be tricky to get
right in a prioritized scheme with a budget will be more common and idiomatic
for at least some frontends (C++ and Rust at least). So while these approaches
are still really interesting, I'm not in a huge rush to go after them. Staying
even closer to the existing PM's behavior, especially when this easy to do,
seems like the right short to medium term approach.
I don't really have a test case that makes sense yet... I'll try to find a
variant of the IR produced by the monster template metaprogram that is both
small enough to be sane and large enough to clearly show when we get this wrong
in the future. But I'm not confident this exists. And the behavior change here
*should* be unobservable without snooping on debug logging. So there isn't
really much to test.
The test case updates come from two incidental changes:
1) We now visit functions in an SCC in the opposite order. I don't think there
really is a "right" order here, so I just update the test cases.
2) We no longer compute some analyses when an SCC has no call instructions that
we consider for inlining.

Summary:
In a .symver assembler directive like:
.symver name, name2@@nodename
"name2@@nodename" should get the same symbol binding as "name".
While the ELF object writer is updating the symbol binding for .symver
aliases before emitting the object file, not doing so when the module
inline assembly is handled by the RecordStreamer is causing the wrong
behavior in *LTO mode.
E.g. when "name" is global, "name2@@nodename" must also be marked as
global. Otherwise, the symbol is skipped when iterating over the LTO
InputFile symbols (InputFile::Symbol::shouldSkip). So, for example,
when performing any *LTO via the gold-plugin, the versioned symbol
definition is not recorded by the plugin and passed back to the
linker. If the object was in an archive, and there were no other symbols
needed from that object, the object would not be included in the final
link and references to the versioned symbol are undefined.
The llvm-lto2 tests added will give an error about an unused symbol
resolution without the fix.

Summary: For SamplePGO, the profile may contain cross-module inline stacks. As we need to make sure the profile annotation happens when all the hot inline stacks are expanded, we need to pass this info to the module importer so that it can import proper functions if necessary. This patch implemented this feature by emitting cross-module targets as part of function entry metadata. In the module-summary phase, the metadata is used to build call edges that points to functions need to be imported.

A future change will cause this byte offset to be inttoptr'd and then exported
via an absolute symbol. On the importing end we will expect the symbol to be
in range [0,2^32) so that it will fit into a 32-bit relocation. The problem
is that on 64-bit architectures if the offset is negative it will not be in
the correct range once we inttoptr it.
This change causes us to use a 32-bit integer so that it can be inttoptr'd
(which zero extends) into the correct range.

Group calls into constant and non-constant arguments up front, and use uint64_t
instead of ConstantInt to represent constant arguments. The goal is to allow
the information from the summary to fit naturally into this data structure in
a future change (specifically, it will be added to CallSiteInfo).
This has two side effects:
- We disallow VCP for constant integer arguments of width >64 bits.
- We remove the restriction that the bitwidth of a vcall's argument and return
types must match those of the vfunc definitions.
I don't expect either of these to matter in practice. The first case is
uncommon, and the second one will lead to UB (so we can do anything we like).

Now that the call graph supports efficient replacement of a function and
spurious reference edges, we can port ArgumentPromotion to the new pass
manager very easily.
The old PM-specific bits are sunk into callbacks that the new PM simply
doesn't use. Unlike the old PM, the new PM simply does argument
promotion and afterward does the update to LCG reflecting the promoted
function.

disturbing the graph or having to update edges.
This is motivated by porting argument promotion to the new pass manager.
Because of how LLVM IR Function objects work, in order to change their
signature a new object needs to be created. This is efficient and
straight forward in the IR but previously was very hard to implement in
LCG. We could easily replace the function a node in the graph
represents. The challenging part is how to handle updating the edges in
the graph.
LCG previously used an edge to a raw function to represent a node that
had not yet been scanned for calls and references. This was the core
of its laziness. However, that model causes this kind of update to be
very hard:
1) The keys to lookup an edge need to be `Function*`s that would all
need to be updated when we update the node.
2) There will be some unknown number of edges that haven't transitioned
from `Function*` edges to `Node*` edges.
All of this complexity isn't necessary. Instead, we can always build
a node around any function, always pointing edges at it and always using
it as the key to lookup an edge. To maintain the laziness, we need to
sink the *edges* of a node into a secondary object and explicitly model
transitioning a node from empty to populated by scanning the function.
This design seems much cleaner in a number of ways, but importantly
there is now exactly *one* place where the `Function*` has to be
updated!
Some other cleanups that fall out of this include having something to
model the *entry* edges more accurately. Rather than hand rolling parts
of the node in the graph itself, we have an explicit `EdgeSequence`
object that gives us exactly the functionality needed. We also have
a consistent place to define the edge iterators and can use them for
both the entry edges and the internal edges of the graph.
The API used to model the separation between a node and its edges is
intentionally very thin as most clients are expected to deal with nodes
that have populated edges. We model this exactly as an optional does
with an additional method to populate the edges when that is
a reasonable thing for a client to do. This is based on API design
suggestions from Richard Smith and David Blaikie, credit goes to them
for helping pick how to model this without it being either too explicit
or too implicit.
The patch is somewhat noisy due to shifting around iterator types and
new syntax for walking the edges of a node, but most of the
functionality change is in the `Edge`, `EdgeSequence`, and `Node` types.
