to reflect the new license.
We understand that people may be surprised that we're moving the header
entirely to discuss the new license. We checked this carefully with the
Foundation's lawyer and we believe this is the correct approach.
Essentially, all code in the project is now made available by the LLVM
project under our new license, so you will see that the license headers
include that license only. Some of our contributors have contributed
code under our old license, and accordingly, we have retained a copy of
our old license notice in the top-level files in each project and
repository.

Summary:
Instead of passing Context explicitly around, we now have a thread-local
Context object `Context::current()` which is an implicit argument to
every function.
Most manipulation of this should use the WithContextValue helper, which
augments the current Context to add a single KV pair, and restores the
old context on destruction.
Advantages are:
- less boilerplate in functions that just propagate contexts
- reading most code doesn't require understanding context at all, and
using context as values in fewer places still
- fewer options to pass the "wrong" context when it changes within a
scope (e.g. when using Span)
- contexts pass through interfaces we can't modify, such as VFS
- propagating contexts across threads was slightly tricky (e.g.
copy vs move, no move-init in lambdas), and is now encapsulated in
the threadpool
Disadvantages are all the usual TLS stuff - hidden magic, and
potential for higher memory usage on threads that don't use the
context. (In practice, it's just one pointer)

Summary:
This is probably the right behavior for distributed tracers, and makes unpaired
begin-end events impossible without requiring Spans to be bound to a thread.
The API is conceptually clean but syntactically awkward. As discussed offline,
this is basically a naming problem and will go away if (when) we use TLS to
store the current context.
The apparently-unrelated change to onScopeExit are because its move semantics
broken if Func is POD-like since r322838. This is true of function pointers,
and the lambda I use here that captures two pointers only.
I've raised this issue on llvm-dev and will revert this part if we fix it in
some other way.

Summary:
It will be used to pass around things like Logger and Tracer throughout
clangd classes.
