Check accessors of `MDLocation`, and change them to `cast<>` down to the
right types. Also add type-safe factory functions.
All the callers that handle broken code need to use the new versions of
the accessors (`getRawScope()` instead of `getScope()`) that still
return `Metadata*`. This is also necessary for things like
`MDNodeKeyImpl<MDLocation>` (in LLVMContextImpl.h) that need to unique
the nodes when their operands might still be forward references of the
wrong type.
In the `Value` hierarchy, consumers that handle broken code use
`getOperand()` directly. However, debug info nodes have a ton of
operands, and their order (even their existence) isn't stable yet. It's
safer and more maintainable to add an explicit "raw" accessor on the
class itself.

Remove unnecessary restriction of 24-bits for line numbers in
`MDLocation`.
The rest of the debug info schema (with the exception of local
variables) uses 32-bits for line numbers. As I introduce the
specialized nodes, it makes sense to canonicalize on one size or the
other.

This adds assembly and bitcode support for `MDLocation`. The assembly
side is rather big, since this is the first `MDNode` subclass (that
isn't `MDTuple`). Part of PR21433.
(If you're wondering where the mountains of testcase updates are, we
don't need them until I update `DILocation` and `DebugLoc` to actually
use this class.)
