(1) Add support for function key negotiation.
The previous version of the RPC required both sides to maintain the same
enumeration for functions in the API. This means that any version skew between
the client and server would result in communication failure.
With this version of the patch functions (and serializable types) are defined
with string names, and the derived function signature strings are used to
negotiate the actual function keys (which are used for efficient call
serialization). This allows clients to connect to any server that supports a
superset of the API (based on the function signatures it supports).
(2) Add a callAsync primitive.
The callAsync primitive can be used to install a return value handler that will
run as soon as the RPC function's return value is sent back from the remote.
(3) Launch policies for RPC function handlers.
The new addHandler method, which installs handlers for RPC functions, takes two
arguments: (1) the handler itself, and (2) an optional "launch policy". When the
RPC function is called, the launch policy (if present) is invoked to actually
launch the handler. This allows the handler to be spawned on a background
thread, or added to a work list. If no launch policy is used, the handler is run
on the server thread itself. This should only be used for short-running
handlers, or entirely synchronous RPC APIs.
(4) Zero cost cross type serialization.
You can now define serialization from any type to a different "wire" type. For
example, this allows you to call an RPC function that's defined to take a
std::string while passing a StringRef argument. If a serializer from StringRef
to std::string has been defined for the channel type this will be used to
serialize the argument without having to construct a std::string instance.
This allows buffer reference types to be used as arguments to RPC calls without
requiring a copy of the buffer to be made.

This patch adds utilities to ORC for managing a remote JIT target. It consists
of:
1. A very primitive RPC system for making calls over a byte-stream. See
RPCChannel.h, RPCUtils.h.
2. An RPC API defined in the above system for managing memory, looking up
symbols, creating stubs, etc. on a remote target. See OrcRemoteTargetRPCAPI.h.
3. An interface for creating high-level JIT components (memory managers,
callback managers, stub managers, etc.) that operate over the RPC API. See
OrcRemoteTargetClient.h.
4. A helper class for building servers that can handle the RPC calls. See
OrcRemoteTargetServer.h.
The system is designed to work neatly with the existing ORC components and
functionality. In particular, the ORC callback API (and consequently the
CompileOnDemandLayer) is supported, enabling lazy compilation of remote code.
Assuming this doesn't trigger any builder failures, a follow-up patch will be
committed which tests these utilities by using them to replace LLI's existing
remote-JITing demo code.

Summary:
This is an implementation of RuntimeDyld::SymbolResolver that simply
rejects all resolution requests; useful for clients that do not have any
cross-object symbol references.

and avoid cloning unused decls into every partition.
Module partitioning showed up as a source of significant overhead when I
profiled some trivial test cases. Avoiding the overhead of partitionging
for uncalled functions helps to mitigate this.
This change also means that it is no longer necessary to have a
LazyEmittingLayer underneath the CompileOnDemand layer, since the
CompileOnDemandLayer will not extract or emit function bodies until they are
called.

This patch adds a new set of JIT APIs to LLVM. The aim of these new APIs is to
cleanly support a wider range of JIT use cases in LLVM, and encourage the
development and contribution of re-usable infrastructure for LLVM JIT use-cases.
These APIs are intended to live alongside the MCJIT APIs, and should not affect
existing clients.
Included in this patch:
1) New headers in include/llvm/ExecutionEngine/Orc that provide a set of
components for building JIT infrastructure.
Implementation code for these headers lives in lib/ExecutionEngine/Orc.
2) A prototype re-implementation of MCJIT (OrcMCJITReplacement) built out of the
new components.
3) Minor changes to RTDyldMemoryManager needed to support the new components.
These changes should not impact existing clients.
4) A new flag for lli, -use-orcmcjit, which will cause lli to use the
OrcMCJITReplacement class as its underlying execution engine, rather than
MCJIT itself.
Tests to follow shortly.
Special thanks to Michael Ilseman, Pete Cooper, David Blaikie, Eric Christopher,
Justin Bogner, and Jim Grosbach for extensive feedback and discussion.
