Summary:
AIX uses the existing EH infrastructure in clang and llvm.
The major differences would be
1. AIX do not have CFI instructions.
2. AIX uses a new personality routine, named __xlcxx_personality_v1.
It doesn't use the GCC personality rountine, because the
interoperability is not there yet on AIX.
3. AIX do not use eh_frame sections. Instead, it would use a eh_info
section (compat unwind section) to store the information about
personality routine and LSDA data address.

The types of SEH aren't x86(-32) vs x64 but rather stack-based exception chaining
vs table-based exception handling. x86-32 is the only arch for which Windows
uses the former. 32-bit ARM would use what is called Win64SEH today, which
is a bit confusing so instead let's just rename it to be a bit more clear.

to reflect the new license.
We understand that people may be surprised that we're moving the header
entirely to discuss the new license. We checked this carefully with the
Foundation's lawyer and we believe this is the correct approach.
Essentially, all code in the project is now made available by the LLVM
project under our new license, so you will see that the license headers
include that license only. Some of our contributors have contributed
code under our old license, and accordingly, we have retained a copy of
our old license notice in the top-level files in each project and
repository.

by `getTerminator()` calls instead be declared as `Instruction`.
This is the biggest remaining chunk of the usage of `getTerminator()`
that insists on the narrow type and so is an easy batch of updates.
Several files saw more extensive updates where this would cascade to
requiring API updates within the file to use `Instruction` instead of
`TerminatorInst`. All of these were trivial in nature (pervasively using
`Instruction` instead just worked).

Summary:
- Add wasm personality function
- Re-categorize the existing `isFuncletEHPersonality()` function into
two different functions: `isFuncletEHPersonality()` and
`isScopedEHPersonality(). This becomes necessary as wasm EH uses scoped
EH instructions (catchswitch, catchpad/ret, and cleanuppad/ret) but not
outlined funclets.
- Changed some callsites of `isFuncletEHPersonality()` to
`isScopedEHPersonality()` if they are related to scoped EH IR-level
stuff.

This adds support for TSan C++ exception handling, where we need to add extra calls to __tsan_func_exit when a function is exitted via exception mechanisms. Otherwise the shadow stack gets corrupted (leaked). This patch moves and enhances the existing implementation of EscapeEnumerator that finds all possible function exit points, and adds extra EH cleanup blocks where needed.

This adds support to the backed to actually support SjLj EH as an exception
model. This is *NOT* the default model, and requires explicitly opting into it
from the frontend. GCC supports this model and for MinGW can still be enabled
via the `--using-sjlj-exceptions` options.

Summary:
Rename to getCatchSwitchParentPad, to make it more clear which ancestor
the "parent" in question is. Add a comment pointing out the key feature
that the returned pad indicates which funclet contains the successor
block.

It turns out that terminatepad gives little benefit over a cleanuppad
which calls the termination function. This is not sufficient to
implement fully generic filters but MSVC doesn't support them which
makes terminatepad a little over-designed.
Depends on D15478.

While we have successfully implemented a funclet-oriented EH scheme on
top of LLVM IR, our scheme has some notable deficiencies:
- catchendpad and cleanupendpad are necessary in the current design
but they are difficult to explain to others, even to seasoned LLVM
experts.
- catchendpad and cleanupendpad are optimization barriers. They cannot
be split and force all potentially throwing call-sites to be invokes.
This has a noticable effect on the quality of our code generation.
- catchpad, while similar in some aspects to invoke, is fairly awkward.
It is unsplittable, starts a funclet, and has control flow to other
funclets.
- The nesting relationship between funclets is currently a property of
control flow edges. Because of this, we are forced to carefully
analyze the flow graph to see if there might potentially exist illegal
nesting among funclets. While we have logic to clone funclets when
they are illegally nested, it would be nicer if we had a
representation which forbade them upfront.
Let's clean this up a bit by doing the following:
- Instead, make catchpad more like cleanuppad and landingpad: no control
flow, just a bunch of simple operands; catchpad would be splittable.
- Introduce catchswitch, a control flow instruction designed to model
the constraints of funclet oriented EH.
- Make funclet scoping explicit by having funclet instructions consume
the token produced by the funclet which contains them.
- Remove catchendpad and cleanupendpad. Their presence can be inferred
implicitly using coloring information.
N.B. The state numbering code for the CLR has been updated but the
veracity of it's output cannot be spoken for. An expert should take a
look to make sure the results are reasonable.
