Tim Northover b7141207a4 Reapply: IR: add optional type to 'byval' function parameters
When we switch to opaque pointer types we will need some way to describe
how many bytes a 'byval' parameter should occupy on the stack. This adds
a (for now) optional extra type parameter.

If present, the type must match the pointee type of the argument.

The original commit did not remap byval types when linking modules, which broke
LTO. This version fixes that.

Note to front-end maintainers: if this causes test failures, it's probably
because the "byval" attribute is printed after attributes without any parameter
after this change.

Tim Northover 71ee3d0237 Revert "IR: add optional type to 'byval' function parameters"
The IRLinker doesn't delve into the new byval attribute when mapping types, and
this breaks LTO.
