Summary:
When the WebAssembly backend encounters a return type that doesn't
fit within i32, SelectionDAG performs sret demotion, adding an
additional argument to the start of the function that contains
a pointer to an sret buffer to use instead. However, this conflicts
with the emscripten sjlj lowering pass. There we translate calls like:
```
call {i32, i32} @foo()
```
into (in pseudo-llvm)
```
%addr = @foo
call {i32, i32} @__invoke_{i32,i32}(%addr)
```
i.e. we perform an indirect call through an extra function.
However, the sret transform now transforms this into
the equivalent of
```
%addr = @foo
%sret = alloca {i32, i32}
call {i32, i32} @__invoke_{i32,i32}(%sret, %addr)
```
(while simultaneously translation the implementation of @foo as well).
Unfortunately, this doesn't work out. The __invoke_ ABI expected
the function address to be the first argument, causing crashes.
There is several possible ways to fix this:
1. Implementing the sret rewrite at the IR level as well and performing
it as part of lowering to __invoke
2. Fixing the wasm backend to recognize that __invoke has a special ABI
3. A change to the binaryen/emscripten ABI to recognize this situation
This revision implements the middle option, teaching the backend to
treat __invoke_ functions specially in sret lowering. This is achieved
by
1) Introducing a new CallingConv ID for invoke functions
2) When this CallingConv ID is seen in the backend and the first argument
is marked as sret (a function pointer would never be marked as sret),
swapping the first two arguments.

Rather than assuming that `tempRet0` exists in linear memory only assume
the getter/setter functions exist. This avoids conflicting with
binaryen which declares a wasm global for this purpose and defines it's
own getter and setter for that.
The other advantage of doing things this way is that it leaving
it up to the linker/finalizer to decide how to actually store this
temporary. As it happens binaryen uses a wasm global which is more
appropriate since it is thread safe.
This also allows us to change the way this is stored in the future
(memory, TLS memory, wasm global) without modifying LLVM.
This is part of a 4 part change:

Previously we were creating weakly defined helper function in
each translation unit:
- setThrew
- setTempRet0
Instead we now assume these will be provided at link time. In
emscripten they are provided in compiler-rt:
https://github.com/kripken/emscripten/pull/7203
Additionally we previously created three global variable which are
also now required to exist at link time instead.
- __THREW__
- _threwValue
- __tempRet0

Previously we were assuming whole program compilation. Now that
separate compilation is a thing we need to update this pass.
Firstly, it can no longer assert on the existence of malloc and free.
This functions might not be in the current translation unit. If we
need them then we will generate not imports for them.
Secondly the global helper function we create should be marked as
weak since we will be generating a separate copy in each translation
unit.
Finally the names of the symbols used must be unique and fixed since
they need to agree across translation units.

With the "wasm32-unknown-unknown-wasm" triple, this allows writing out
simple wasm object files, and is another step in a larger series toward
migrating from ELF to general wasm object support. Note that this code
and the binary format itself is still experimental.

This patch changes the code structure of
WebAssemblyLowerEmscriptenException pass to support both exception
handling and setjmp/longjmp. It also changes the name of the pass and
the source file.
1. Change the file/pass name to WebAssemblyLowerEmscriptenExceptions ->
WebAssemblyLowerEmscriptenEHSjLj to make it clear that it supports both
EH and SjLj
2. List function / global variable names at the top so they
can be changed easily
3. Some cosmetic changes

* Delete extra '_' prefixes from JS library function names. fixImports()
function in JS glue code deals with this for wasm.
* Change command-line option names in order to be consistent with
asm.js.
* Add missing lowering code for llvm.eh.typeid.for intrinsics
* Delete commas in mangled function names
* Fix a function argument attributes bug. Because we add the pointer to
the original callee as the first argument of invoke wrapper, all
argument attribute indices have to be incremented by one.

Summary: This patch includes asm.js-style exception handling support for
WebAssembly. The WebAssembly MVP does not have any support for
unwinding or non-local control flow. In order to support C++ exceptions,
emscripten currently uses JavaScript exceptions along with some support
code (written in JavaScript) that is bundled by emscripten with the
generated code.
This scheme lowers exception-related instructions for wasm such that
wasm modules can be compatible with emscripten's existing scheme and
share the support code.
