Parallel regions are outlined as functions with capture variables explicitly generated as distinct parameters in the function's argument list. That complicates the fork_call interface in the OpenMP runtime: (1) the fork_call is variadic since there is a variable number of arguments to forward to the outlined function, (2) wrapping/unwrapping arguments happens in the OpenMP runtime, which is sub-optimal, has been a source of ABI bugs, and has a hardcoded limit (16) in the number of arguments, (3) forwarded arguments must cast to pointer types, which complicates debugging. This patch avoids those issues by aggregating captured arguments in a struct to pass to the fork_call.

The original change was reverted because it was discovered
that clang mishandles thunks, and they receive wrong
attributes for their this/return types - the ones for the function
they will call, not the ones they have.
While i have tried to fix this in https://reviews.llvm.org/D100388
that patch has been up and stuck for a month now,
with little signs of progress.
So while it will be good to solve this for real,
for now we can simply avoid introducing the bug,
by not annotating this/return for thunks.
This reverts commit 6270b3a1ea,
relanding 0aa0458f14.
The OpenMP spec seems to require the compound operators be used for
+, *, &, |, and ^ reduction. So use these if a class has those operators.
If not try the simple operators as we did previously to limit the impact
to existing code.
