Summary:
The llvm.invariant.start and llvm.invariant.end intrinsics currently
support specifying invariant memory objects only in the default address
space.
With this change, these intrinsics are overloaded for any adddress space
for memory objects
and we can use these llvm invariant intrinsics in non-default address
spaces.
Example: llvm.invariant.start.p1i8(i64 4, i8 addrspace(1)* %ptr)
This overloaded intrinsic is needed for representing final or invariant
memory in managed languages.

Essentially the same as the GEP change in r230786.
A similar migration script can be used to update test cases, though a few more
test case improvements/changes were required this time around: (r229269-r229278)
import fileinput
import sys
import re
pat = re.compile(r"((?:=|:|^)\s*load (?:atomic )?(?:volatile )?(.*?))(| addrspace\(\d+\) *)\*($| *(?:%|@|null|undef|blockaddress|getelementptr|addrspacecast|bitcast|inttoptr|\[\[[a-zA-Z]|\{\{).*$)")
for line in sys.stdin:
sys.stdout.write(re.sub(pat, r"\1, \2\3*\4", line))

llvm.invariant.start to be used without necessarily being paired with a call
to llvm.invariant.end. If you run the entire optimization pipeline then such
calls are in fact deleted (adce does it), but that's actually a good thing since
we probably do want them to be zapped late in the game. There should really be
an integration test that checks that the llvm.invariant.start call lasts long
enough that all passes that do interesting things with it get to do their stuff
before it is deleted. But since no passes do anything interesting with it yet
this will have to wait for later.
