David Blaikie 23af64846f [opaque pointer type] Add textual IR support for explicit type parameter to the call instruction
See r230786 and r230794 for similar changes to gep and load
respectively.

Call is a bit different because it often doesn't have a single explicit
type - usually the type is deduced from the arguments, and just the
return type is explicit. In those cases there's no need to change the
IR.

When that's not the case, the IR usually contains the pointer type of
the first operand - but since typed pointers are going away, that
representation is insufficient so I'm just stripping the "pointerness"
of the explicit type away.

This does make the IR a bit weird - it /sort of/ reads like the type of
the first operand: "call void () %x(" but %x is actually of type "void
()*" and will eventually be just of type "ptr". But this seems not too
bad and I don't think it would benefit from repeating the type
("void (), void () * %x(" and then eventually "void (), ptr %x(") as has
been done with gep and load.

This also has a side benefit: since the explicit type is no longer a
pointer, there's no ambiguity between an explicit type and a function
that returns a function pointer. Previously this case needed an explicit
type (eg: a function returning a void() function was written as
"call void () () * @x(" rather than "call void () * @x(" because of the
ambiguity between a function returning a pointer to a void() function
and a function returning void).

No ambiguity means even function pointer return types can just be
written alone, without writing the whole function's type.

This leaves /only/ the varargs case where the explicit type is required.

Given the special type syntax in call instructions, the regex-fu used
for migration was a bit more involved in its own unique way (as every
one of these is) so here it is. Use it in conjunction with the apply.sh
script and associated find/xargs commands I've provided in rr230786 to
migrate your out of tree tests. Do let me know if any of this doesn't
cover your cases & we can iterate on a more general script/regexes to
help others with out of tree tests.

About 9 test cases couldn't be automatically migrated - half of those
were functions returning function pointers, where I just had to manually
delete the function argument types now that we didn't need an explicit
function type there. The other half were typedefs of function types used
in calls - just had to manually drop the * from those.

Pete Cooper 7c801dc90b Fix a stackmap bug introduced in r220710.
For a call to not return in to the stackmap shadow, the shadow must end with the call.

To do this, we must insert any required nops *before* the call, and not after it.

Pete Cooper 3c0af35232 Stackmap shadows should consider call returns a branch target.
To avoid emitting too many nops, a stackmap shadow can include emitted instructions in the shadow, but these must not include branch targets.

A return from a call should count as a branch target as patching over the instructions after the call would lead to incorrect behaviour for threads currently making that call, when they return.

Juergen Ributzka 99bd3cba8b [Stackmaps] Make ithe frame-pointer required for stackmaps.
Do not eliminate the frame pointer if there is a stackmap or patchpoint in the
function. All stackmap references should be FP relative.

This fixes PR21107.

Lang Hames f49bc3f1b1 [X86] Optimize stackmap shadows on X86.
This patch minimizes the number of nops that must be emitted on X86 to satisfy
stackmap shadow constraints.

To minimize the number of nops inserted, the X86AsmPrinter now records the
size of the most recent stackmap's shadow in the StackMapShadowTracker class,
and tracks the number of instruction bytes emitted since the that stackmap
instruction was encountered. Padding is emitted (if it is required at all)
immediately before the next stackmap/patchpoint instruction, or at the end of
the basic block.

This optimization should reduce code-size and improve performance for people
using the llvm stackmap intrinsic on X86.
