This patch adds a flag -fclang-abi-compat that can be used to request that
Clang attempts to be ABI-compatible with some older version of itself.
This is provided on a best-effort basis; right now, this can be used to undo
the ABI change in r310401, reverting Clang to its prior C++ ABI for pass/return
by value of class types affected by that change, and to undo the ABI change in
r262688, reverting Clang to using integer registers rather than SSE registers
for passing <1 x long long> vectors. The intent is that we will maintain this
backwards compatibility path as we make ABI-breaking fixes in future.
The reversion to the old behavior for r310401 is also applied to the PS4 target
since that change is not part of its platform ABI (which is essentially to do
whatever Clang 3.2 did).

constructors when deciding whether classes should be passed indirectly.
This fixes ABI differences between Clang and GCC:
* Previously, Clang ignored the move constructor when making this
determination. It now takes the move constructor into account, per
https://github.com/itanium-cxx-abi/cxx-abi/pull/17 (this change may
seem recent, but the ABI change was agreed on the Itanium C++ ABI
list a long time ago).
* Previously, Clang's behavior when the copy constructor was deleted
was unstable -- depending on whether the lazy declaration of the
copy constructor had been triggered, you might get different behavior.
We now eagerly declare the copy constructor whenever its deletedness
is unclear, and ignore deleted copy/move constructors when looking for
a trivial such constructor.
This also fixes an ABI difference between Clang and MSVC:
* If the copy constructor would be implicitly deleted (but has not been
lazily declared yet), for instance because the class has an rvalue
reference member, we would pass it directly. We now pass such a class
indirectly, matching MSVC.
Based on a patch by Vassil Vassilev, which was based on a patch by Bernd
Schmidt, which was based on a patch by Reid Kleckner!
This is a re-commit of r310401, which was reverted in r310464 due to ARM
failures (which should now be fixed).

This is needed because whether the constructor is deleted can control whether
we pass structs by value directly.
To fix this properly we probably want a more direct way for CodeGen to ask
whether the constructor was deleted.

This undoes half of r208786.
It had problems with lazily declared special members in cases like this:
struct A {
A();
A &operator=(A &&o);
void *p;
};
void foo(A);
void bar() {
foo({});
}
In this case, the copy and move constructors are implicitly deleted.
However, Clang doesn't eagerly declare the copy ctor in the AST, so we
pass the struct in registers. Furthermore, GCC passes this in registers
even though this class should be uncopyable.
Revert this for now until the dust settles.

This affects both the Itanium and Microsoft C++ ABIs.
This is in anticipation of a change to the Itanium C++ ABI, and should
match GCC's current behavior. The new text will likely be:
"""
Pass an object of class type by value if every copy constructor and
move constructor is deleted or trivial and at least one of them is not
deleted, and the destructor is trivial.
"""

On x86 Windows, we can mostly use the same logic, where we use inalloca
instead of passing by address. However, on Win64, there are register
parameters, and we have to do what MSVC does. MSVC ignores the presence
of non-trivial move constructors and only considers the presence of
non-trivial or deleted copy constructors. If a non-trivial or deleted
copy ctor is present, it passes the argument indirectly.
This change fixes bugs and makes us more ABI compatible with both GCC
and MSVC.
Fixes PR19668.
