When we switch to opaque pointer types we will need some way to describe
how many bytes a 'byval' parameter should occupy on the stack. This adds
a (for now) optional extra type parameter.
If present, the type must match the pointee type of the argument.
The original commit did not remap byval types when linking modules, which broke
LTO. This version fixes that.
Note to front-end maintainers: if this causes test failures, it's probably
because the "byval" attribute is printed after attributes without any parameter
after this change.

Fix the sort of expected order in the reader to correctly return `false`
when comparing a `Use` against itself.
This was caught by test/Bitcode/binaryIntInstructions.3.2.ll, so I'm
adding a `RUN` line using `llvm-uselistorder` for every test in
`test/Bitcode` that passes.
A few tests still fail, so I'll investigate those next.
This is part of PR5680.

The bitcode representation attribute kinds are encoded into / decoded from
should be independent of the current set of LLVM attributes and their position
in the AttrKind enum. This patch explicitly encodes attributes to fixed bitcode
values.
With this patch applied, LLVM does not silently misread attributes written by
LLVM 3.3. We also enhance the decoding slightly such that an error message is
printed if an unknown AttrKind encoding was dected.
Bonus: Dropping bitcode attributes from AttrKind is now easy, as old AttrKinds
do not need to be kept to support the Bitcode reader.
