Apparently this is important, otherwise _except_handler3 assumes that
the registration node is corrupted and ignores it.
Also fix a bug in WinEHPrepare where we would insert code after a
terminator instruction.

The runtime does not restore CSRs when transferring control back to the
function handling the exception. According to the experts on IRC, LLVM's
register allocator has no way to model register clobbers that only
happen on one edge of the CFG. For now, don't worry about trying to use
the meager three CSRs available on 32-bit X86 and just say that such
invokes preserve nothing.

Summary:
Initially, these intrinsics seemed like part of a family of "frame"
related intrinsics, but now I think that's more confusing than helpful.
Initially, the LangRef specified that this would create a new kind of
allocation that would be allocated at a fixed offset from the frame
pointer (EBP/RBP). We ended up dropping that design, and leaving the
stack frame layout alone.
These intrinsics are really about sharing local stack allocations, not
frame pointers. I intend to go further and add an `llvm.localaddress()`
intrinsic that returns whatever register (EBP, ESI, ESP, RBX) is being
used to address locals, which should not be confused with the frame
pointer.
Naming suggestions at this point are welcome, I'm happy to re-run sed.

The incoming EBP value established by the runtime is actually a pointer
to the end of the EH registration object, and not the true parent
function frame pointer. Clang doesn't need llvm.x86.seh.exceptioninfo
anymore because we know that the exception info pointer is at a fixed
offset from this incoming EBP.
The llvm.x86.seh.recoverfp intrinsic takes an EBP value provided by the
EH runtime and returns a pointer that is usable with llvm.framerecover.
The llvm.x86.seh.restoreframe intrinsic is inserted by the 32-bit
specific preparation pass in blocks targetted by the EH runtime. It
re-establishes any physical registers used by the parent function to
address the stack, such as the frame, base, and stack pointers.
Neither of these intrinsics correctly handle stack realignment prologues
yet, but it's possible to add that later.

The personality routine currently lives in the LandingPadInst.
This isn't desirable because:
- All LandingPadInsts in the same function must have the same
personality routine. This means that each LandingPadInst beyond the
first has an operand which produces no additional information.
- There is ongoing work to introduce EH IR constructs other than
LandingPadInst. Moving the personality routine off of any one
particular Instruction and onto the parent function seems a lot better
than have N different places a personality function can sneak onto an
exceptional function.

This intrinsic is like framerecover plus a load. It recovers the EH
registration stack allocation from the parent frame and loads the
exception information field out of it, giving back a pointer to an
EXCEPTION_POINTERS struct. It's designed for clang to use in SEH filter
expressions instead of accessing the EXCEPTION_POINTERS parameter that
is available on x64.
This required a minor change to MC to allow defining a label variable to
another absolute framerecover label variable.
