Language-design credit goes to a lot of people, but I particularly want
to single out Blaine Garst and Patrick Beard for their contributions.
Compiler implementation credit goes to Argyrios, Doug, Fariborz, and myself,
in no particular order.

Related result types apply Cocoa conventions to the type of message
sends and property accesses to Objective-C methods that are known to
always return objects whose type is the same as the type of the
receiving class (or a subclass thereof), such as +alloc and
-init. This tightens up static type safety for Objective-C, so that we
now diagnose mistakes like this:
t.m:4:10: warning: incompatible pointer types initializing 'NSSet *'
with an
expression of type 'NSArray *' [-Wincompatible-pointer-types]
NSSet *array = [[NSArray alloc] init];
^ ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
/System/Library/Frameworks/Foundation.framework/Headers/NSObject.h:72:1:
note:
instance method 'init' is assumed to return an instance of its
receiver
type ('NSArray *')
- (id)init;
^
It also means that we get decent type inference when writing code in
Objective-C++0x:
auto array = [[NSMutableArray alloc] initWithObjects:@"one", @"two",nil];
// ^ now infers NSMutableArray* rather than id

matches GCC behavior which libstdc++ uses to limit #warning-based
messages about deprecation.
The machinery involves threading this through a new '-fdeprecated-macro'
flag for CC1. The flag defaults to "on", similarly to -Wdeprecated. We
turn the flag off in the driver when the warning is turned off (modulo
matching some GCC bugs). We record this as a language option, and key
the preprocessor on the option when introducing the define.
A separate flag rather than a '-D' flag allows us to properly represent
the difference between C and C++ builds (only C++ receives the define),
and it allows the specific behavior of following -Wdeprecated without
potentially impacting the set of user-provided macro flags.

-Wwrite-strings. First and foremost, once the positive form of the flag
was passed, it could never be disabled by passing -Wno-write-strings.
Also, the diagnostic engine couldn't in turn use -Wwrite-strings to
control diagnostics (as GCC does) because it was essentially hijacked to
drive the language semantics.
Fix this by giving CC1 a clean '-fconst-strings' flag to enable
const-qualified strings in C and ObjC compilations. Corresponding
'-fno-const-strings' is also added. Then the driver is taught to
introduce '-fconst-strings' in the CC1 command when '-Wwrite-strings'
dominates.
This entire flag is basically GCC-bug-compatibility driven, so we also
match GCC's bug where '-w' doesn't actually disable -Wwrite-strings. I'm
open to changing this though as it seems insane.

line options, instead of leveraging the blanket -mllvm option.
- This allows using the frontend itself without requiring the backend have
those options available (i.e., if the target wasn't built).

MSYS substitutes path (that begins with "/") to de-mounted Windows path, even if it were nonexistent.
"/foo/bar" might be substituted to "C:/msysgit/foo/bar".

MSYS substitutes path (that begins with "/") to de-mounted Windows path.
"/tmp" might be substituted as "C:/DOCUME~1/chapuni/LOCALS~1/Temp".

*) Try to detect as much as possible from the system itself, not the distro.
This should make it easier to port to a new distro and more likely to
work on a unknown one.
*) The distro enum now doesn't include the arch. Just use the existing
host detection support in LLVM.
*) Correctly handle --sysroot.
A small regression is that now clang will pass bitcode file to the linker.
This is necessary for the gold plugin support to work.
It might be better to detect this at configure/cmake time, but doing it in
c++ first is a lot easier.
