This model uses the 'landingpad' instruction, which is pinned to the top of the
landing pad. (A landing pad is defined as the destination of the unwind branch
of an invoke instruction.) All of the information needed to generate the correct
exception handling metadata during code generation is encoded into the
landingpad instruction.
The new 'resume' instruction takes the place of the llvm.eh.resume intrinsic
call. It's lowered in much the same way as the intrinsic is.

to be careful to emit landing pads that are always prepared to handle a
cleanup path. This is correct mostly because of the fix to the LLVM
inliner, r132200.

NRVO candidate for a return statement, to
Sema::getCopyElisionCandidate(), and teach it enough to also determine
the NRVO candidate for a throw expression. We still don't use the
latter information, however.
Along the way, implement core issue 1148, which eliminates copy
elision from catch parameters and clarifies that copy elision cannot
occur from function parameters (which we already implemented).

mostly in avoiding unnecessary work at compile time but also in producing more
sensible block orderings.
Move the destructor cleanups for local variables over to use lazy cleanups.
Eventually all cleanups will do this; for now we have some awkward code
duplication.
Tell IR generation just to never produce landing pads in -fno-exceptions.
This is a much more comprehensive solution to a problem which previously was
half-solved by checks in most cleanup-generation spots.

self-host. Hopefully these results hold up on different platforms.
I tried to keep the GNU ObjC runtime happy, but it's hard for me to test.
Reimplement how clang generates IR for exceptions. Instead of creating new
invoke destinations which sequentially chain to the previous destination,
push a more semantic representation of *why* we need the cleanup/catch/filter
behavior, then collect that information into a single landing pad upon request.
Also reorganizes how normal cleanups (i.e. cleanups triggered by non-exceptional
control flow) are generated, since it's actually fairly closely tied in with
the former. Remove the need to track which cleanup scope a block is associated
with.
Document a lot of previously poorly-understood (by me, at least) behavior.
The new framework implements the Horrible Hack (tm), which requires every
landing pad to have a catch-all so that inlining will work. Clang no longer
requires the Horrible Hack just to make exceptions flow correctly within
a function, however. The HH is an unfortunate requirement of LLVM's EH IR.

return statements. We perform NRVO only when all of the return
statements in the function return the same variable. Fixes some link
failures in Boost.Interprocess (which is relying on NRVO), and
probably improves performance for some C++ applications.
