- Calling getUser in a loop is much more expensive than iterating over a few instructions.
- Use it instead of the open-coded loop in AddrModeMatcher.
- 5% speedup on ARMDisassembler.cpp Release builds.

patch brings numerous advantages to LLVM. One way to look at it
is through diffstat:
109 files changed, 3005 insertions(+), 5906 deletions(-)
Removing almost 3K lines of code is a good thing. Other advantages
include:
1. Value::getType() is a simple load that can be CSE'd, not a mutating
union-find operation.
2. Types a uniqued and never move once created, defining away PATypeHolder.
3. Structs can be "named" now, and their name is part of the identity that
uniques them. This means that the compiler doesn't merge them structurally
which makes the IR much less confusing.
4. Now that there is no way to get a cycle in a type graph without a named
struct type, "upreferences" go away.
5. Type refinement is completely gone, which should make LTO much MUCH faster
in some common cases with C++ code.
6. Types are now generally immutable, so we can use "Type *" instead
"const Type *" everywhere.
Downsides of this patch are that it removes some functions from the C API,
so people using those will have to upgrade to (not yet added) new API.
"LLVM 3.0" is the right time to do this.
There are still some cleanups pending after this, this patch is large enough
as-is.

"Reinstate r133435 and r133449 (reverted in r133499) now that the clang
self-hosted build failure has been fixed (r133512)."
Due to some additional warnings.

Change PHINodes to store simple pointers to their incoming basic blocks,
instead of full-blown Uses.
Note that this loses an optimization in SplitCriticalEdge(), because we
can no longer walk the use list of a BasicBlock to find phi nodes. See
the comment I removed starting "However, the foreach loop is slow for
blocks with lots of predecessors".
Extend replaceAllUsesWith() on a BasicBlock to also update any phi
nodes in the block's successors. This mimics what would have happened
when PHINodes were proper Users of their incoming blocks. (Note that
this only works if OldBB->replaceAllUsesWith(NewBB) is called when
OldBB still has a terminator instruction, so it still has some
successors.)

testing for dereferenceable pointers into a helper function,
isDereferenceablePointer. Teach it how to reason about GEPs
with simple non-zero indices.
Also eliminate ArgumentPromtion's IsAlwaysValidPointer,
which didn't check for weak externals or out of range gep
indices.

are still on the list. This might happen if a CallbackVH created some new value
handles for the old value when doing RAUW. Barf if it occurs, since it is almost
certainly a mistake.

parameter with a default value, instead of just hardcoding it in the
implementation. The limit of MaxLookup = 6 was introduced in r69151 to fix
a performance problem with O(n^2) behavior in instcombine, but the scalarrepl
pass is relying on getUnderlyingObject to go all the way back to an AllocaInst.
Making the limit part of the method signature makes it clear that by default
the result is limited and should help avoid similar problems in the future.
This fixes pr6126.

why one was replaced with the other. Even in the specific case of
debug information, it doesn't make sense to transfer the location over,
this will just result in jumbled loc info.

I asked Devang to do back on Sep 27. Instead of going through the
MetadataContext class with methods like getMD() and getMDs(), just
ask the instruction directly for its metadata with getMetadata()
and getAllMetadata().
This includes a variety of other fixes and improvements: previously
all Value*'s were bloated because the HasMetadata bit was thrown into
value, adding a 9th bit to a byte. Now this is properly sunk down to
the Instruction class (the only place where it makes sense) and it
will be folded away somewhere soon.
This also fixes some confusion in getMDs and its clients about
whether the returned list is indexed by the MDID or densely packed.
This is now returned sorted and densely packed and the comments make
this clear.
This introduces a number of fixme's which I'll follow up on.

This is designed for tracking a value even when it might move (like WeakVH), but it is an error to delete the referenced value (unlike WeakVH0. TrackingVH is templated like AssertingVH on the tracked Value subclass, it is an error to RAUW a tracked value to an incompatible type.
For implementation reasons the latter error is only diagnosed on accesses to a mis-RAUWed TrackingVH, because we don't want a virtual interface in a templated class.
The former error is also only diagnosed on access, so that clients are allowed to delete a tracked value, as long as they don't use it. This makes it easier for the client to reason about destruction.
