instead of getAggregateElement. This has the advantage of being
more consistent and allowing higher-level constant folding to
procede even if an inner extract element cannot be folded.
Make ConstantFoldInstruction call ConstantFoldConstantExpression
on the instruction's operands, making it more consistent with
ConstantFoldConstantExpression itself. This makes sure that
ConstantExprs get TargetData-aware folding before being handed
off as operands for further folding.
This causes more expressions to be folded, but due to a known
shortcoming in constant folding, this currently has the side effect
of stripping a few more nuw and inbounds flags in the non-targetdata
side of constant-fold-gep.ll. This is mostly harmless.
This fixes rdar://11324230.

patch brings numerous advantages to LLVM. One way to look at it
is through diffstat:
109 files changed, 3005 insertions(+), 5906 deletions(-)
Removing almost 3K lines of code is a good thing. Other advantages
include:
1. Value::getType() is a simple load that can be CSE'd, not a mutating
union-find operation.
2. Types a uniqued and never move once created, defining away PATypeHolder.
3. Structs can be "named" now, and their name is part of the identity that
uniques them. This means that the compiler doesn't merge them structurally
which makes the IR much less confusing.
4. Now that there is no way to get a cycle in a type graph without a named
struct type, "upreferences" go away.
5. Type refinement is completely gone, which should make LTO much MUCH faster
in some common cases with C++ code.
6. Types are now generally immutable, so we can use "Type *" instead
"const Type *" everywhere.
Downsides of this patch are that it removes some functions from the C API,
so people using those will have to upgrade to (not yet added) new API.
"LLVM 3.0" is the right time to do this.
There are still some cleanups pending after this, this patch is large enough
as-is.

all over the place in different styles and variants. Standardize on two
preferred entrypoints: one that takes a StructType and ArrayRef, and one that
takes StructType and varargs.
In cases where there isn't a struct type convenient, we now add a
ConstantStruct::getAnon method (whose name will make more sense after a few
more patches land).
It would be "really really nice" if the ConstantStruct::get and
ConstantVector::get methods didn't make temporary std::vectors.

It caused a crash in MultiSource/Benchmarks/Bullet.
Opt hit an assertion with "opt -std-compile-opts" because
Constant::getAllOnesValue doesn't know how to handle floats.
This patch added a test to reproduce the problem and a check that the
destination vector is of integer type.
Thank you Benjamin!

While here, I'd like to complain about how vector is not an aggregate type
according to llvm::Type::isAggregateType(), but they're listed under aggregate
types in the LangRef and zero vectors are stored as ConstantAggregateZero.

While there, I noticed that the transform "undef >>a X -> undef" was wrong.
For example if X is 2 then the top two bits must be equal, so the result can
not be anything. I fixed this in the constant folder as well. Also, I made
the transform for "X << undef" stronger: it now folds to undef always, even
though X might be zero. This is in accordance with the LangRef, but I must
admit that it is fairly aggressive. Also, I added "i32 X << 32 -> undef"
following the LangRef and the constant folder, likewise fairly aggressive.

trunc(), to be const and to return a new value instead of modifying the
object in place.
