Duncan P. N. Exon Smith a59d3e5af8 DebugInfo: Remove MDString-based type references
Eliminate DITypeIdentifierMap and make DITypeRef a thin wrapper around
DIType*.  It is no longer legal to refer to a DICompositeType by its
'identifier:', and DIBuilder no longer retains all types with an
'identifier:' automatically.

Aside from the bitcode upgrade, this is mainly removing logic to resolve
an MDString-based reference to an actualy DIType.  The commits leading
up to this have made the implicit type map in DICompileUnit's
'retainedTypes:' field superfluous.

This does not remove DITypeRef, DIScopeRef, DINodeRef, and
DITypeRefArray, or stop using them in DI-related metadata.  Although as
of this commit they aren't serving a useful purpose, there are patchces
under review to reuse them for CodeView support.

The tests in LLVM were updated with deref-typerefs.sh, which is attached
to the thread "[RFC] Lazy-loading of debug info metadata":

Adrian Prantl 75819aedf6 [PR27284] Reverse the ownership between DICompileUnit and DISubprogram.
Currently each Function points to a DISubprogram and DISubprogram has a
scope field. For member functions the scope is a DICompositeType. DIScopes
point to the DICompileUnit to facilitate type uniquing.

Distinct DISubprograms (with isDefinition: true) are not part of the type
hierarchy and cannot be uniqued. This change removes the subprograms
list from DICompileUnit and instead adds a pointer to the owning compile
unit to distinct DISubprograms. This would make it easy for ThinLTO to
strip unneeded DISubprograms and their transitively referenced debug info.

Motivation
----------

Materializing DISubprograms is currently the most expensive operation when
doing a ThinLTO build of clang.

We want the DISubprogram to be stored in a separate Bitcode block (or the
same block as the function body) so we can avoid having to expensively
deserialize all DISubprograms together with the global metadata. If a
function has been inlined into another subprogram we need to store a
reference the block containing the inlined subprogram.

Attached to https://llvm.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=27284 is a python script
that updates LLVM IR testcases to the new format.

Davide Italiano 936a2b09f3 [DebugInfo] Subprograms should belong to a CU.
Start fixing tests accordingly. There are still
about 35 failures before we can enable this check
in the IR verifier.

Keno Fischer 9aae445e09 [Utils] Insert DW_OP_bit_piece when only describing part of the variable
Summary: The dbg.declare -> dbg.value conversion looks through any zext/sext
to find a value to describe the variable (in the expectation that those
zext/sext instruction will go away later). However, those values do not
cover the entire variable and thus need a DW_OP_bit_piece.
