This patch is an attempt to clarify and simplify generation and
propagation of TBAA information. The idea is to pack all values
that describe a memory access, namely, base type, access type and
offset, into a single structure. This is supposed to make further
changes, such as adding support for unions and array members,
easier to prepare and review.
DecorateInstructionWithTBAA() is no more responsible for
converting types to tags. These implicit conversions not only
complicate reading the code, but also suggest assigning scalar
access tags while we generally prefer full-size struct-path tags.
TBAAPathTag is replaced with TBAAAccessInfo; the latter is now
the type of the keys of the cache map that translates access
descriptors to metadata nodes.
Fixed a bug with writing to a wrong map in
getTBAABaseTypeMetadata() (former getTBAAStructTypeInfo()).
We now check for valid base access types every time we
dereference a field. The original code only checks the top-level
base type. See isValidBaseType() / isTBAAPathStruct() calls.
Some entities have been renamed to sound more adequate and less
confusing/misleading in presence of path-aware TBAA information.
Now we do not lookup twice for the same cache entry in
getAccessTagInfo().
Refined relevant comments and descriptions.

This commit changes the root from "Simple C/C++ TBAA" to "Simple C++ TBAA" for
C++.
The problem is that the type name in the TBAA nodes is generated differently
for C vs C++. If we link an IR file for C with an IR file for C++, since they
have the same root and the type names are different, accesses to the two type
nodes will be considered no-alias, even though the two type nodes are from
the same type in a header file.
The fix is to use different roots for C and C++. Types from C will be treated
conservatively in respect to types from C++.
Follow-up commits will change the C root to "Simple C TBAA" plus some mangling
change for C types to make it a little more aggresive.

This makes the C++ ABI depend entirely on the target: MS ABI for -win32 triples,
Itanium otherwise. It's no longer possible to do weird combinations.
To be able to run a test with a specific ABI without constraining it to a
specific triple, new substitutions are added to lit: %itanium_abi_triple and
%ms_abi_triple can be used to get the current target triple adjusted to the
desired ABI. For example, if the test suite is running with the i686-pc-win32
target, %itanium_abi_triple will expand to i686-pc-mingw32.

In preparation for making the Win32 triple imply MS ABI mode,
make all tests pass in this mode, or make them use the Itanium
mode explicitly.

An updated version of r191586 with bug fix.
Struct-path aware TBAA generates tags to specify the access path,
while scalar TBAA only generates tags to scalar types.
We should not generate a TBAA tag with null being the first field. When
a TBAA type node is null, the tag should be null too. Make sure we
don't decorate an instruction with a null TBAA tag.
Added a testing case for the bug reported by Richard with -relaxed-aliasing
and -fsanitizer=thread.

checks to enable. Remove frontend support for -fcatch-undefined-behavior,
-faddress-sanitizer and -fthread-sanitizer now that they don't do anything.
