Summary:
The RFC proposal sent to increase the minimum required GCC version
to 4.8 received a lot of support. See the following thread:
http://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/llvm-dev/2016-October/105955.html,
This patch implements that by updating the docs. I believe the
references to libstdc++ 4.7 issues can be removed as well, please
let me know if that is not the case or if they should be updated
a different way.

Uses of this have all been updated to use LLVM_NODISCARD, which
matches the C++17 [[nodiscard]] semantics rather than those of GCC's
__attribute__((warn_unused_result)).
llvm-svn: 284367
Summary:
* Describe new (3.3) parameter attribute group encoding, leaving old encoding there with a note about legacy
* Bring TYPE_BLOCK docs up to date
* Remove docs about obsolete (pre 3.0) TYPE_SYMTAB_BLOCK, TST_CODE_ENTRY
* Fix a couple of incorrect comments and remove one unused enum definition along the way
This addresses https://llvm.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=28941.

Added relocation names:
- R_AMDGPU_GOTPCREL32_LO
- R_AMDGPU_GOTPCREL32_HI
- R_AMDGPU_REL32_LO
- R_AMDGPU_REL32_HI
AMDGPU isa only supports 32-bit immediates. In order to access 64-bit address we need to generate 32-bit lo/hi relocations, and do the right math (separate patch). Currently we only generate one 32 bit relocation for lower bits for each access, losing higher bits. Hence we need relocations listed above.

This document describes the proposal to move to GitHub, and
compare the two proposals through various workflow examples,
presenting the current set of commands following by the ones
involved in each of the two proposals.
It is intended to supersede the previous "submodule proposal"
document entirely, and drive the discussion at the BoF during
the next Dev Meeting.

The core of the change is supposed to be NFC, however it also fixes
what I believe was an undefined behavior when calling:
va_start(ValueArgs, Desc);
with Desc being a StringRef.

Support overriding the Doxygen & OCamldoc install directories,
and provide a more FHS-compliant defaults for both of them. This extends
r282240 that added this override for Sphinx-built documentation.
LLVM_INSTALL_DOXYGEN_HTML_DIR and LLVM_INSTALL_OCAMLDOC_HTML_DIR are
added, to control the location where Doxygen-generated and
OCamldoc-generated HTML docs are installed appropriately. They both
specify CMake-style install paths, and therefore can either by relative
to the install prefix or absolute.
The new defaults are subdirectories of share/doc/llvm, and replace
the previous directories of 'docs/html' and 'docs/ocaml/html' that
resulted in creating invalid '/usr/docs' that furthermore lacked proper
namespacing for the LLVM package. The new defaults are consistent with
the ones used for Sphinx HTML documentation, differing only in the last
component. Since the 'html' subdirectory is already used for Sphinx
docs, the 'doxygen-html' and 'ocaml-html' directories are used instead.

This patch updates WritingAnLLVMPass.rst to make it in line with current state of things.
Specifically:
* Makefile instructions replaced with CMake ones
* Filenames replaced with correct ones
* Example reformatted a bit to make it less confusing and more conforming to LLVM Coding Standards
* opt tool output updated with what it actually prints nowdays
* "gcse" (which doesn't exist anymore) replaced with "gvn" (which still does)

Summary:
It was previously not possible for tools to use solely the stackmap
information emitted to reconstruct the return addresses of callsites in
the map, which is necessary to use the information to walk a stack. This
patch adds per-function callsite counts when emitting the stackmap
section in order to resolve the problem. Note that this slightly alters
the stackmap format, so external tools parsing these maps will need to
be updated.
**Problem Details:**
Records only store their offset from the beginning of the function they
belong to. While these records and the functions are output in program
order, it is not possible to determine where the end of one function's
records are without the callsite count when processing the records to
compute return addresses.

On Windows, it is often applied to the second parameter, and the x86
backend is prepared to deal with sret appearing on any parameter.
Other backends assume it only appears on parameter zero, but those are
target-specific requirements, and not an IR-level rule.

No need to have a long inline code snippet in this doc.
Also move "flags that control numerical code" underneath the "invoking
clang" section, and reformat things a bit.

CUDA is an extension to C++ -- there is no such thing as "CUDA C". But
also, the language is much more commonly called "CUDA" than "CUDA C++".

auto-brief format for doxygen comments. Most notable is switching to
that in the example doxygen comment. I've also tweaked the wording but
am happy to tweak it further if others have suggestions here.
Mostly doing this to capture something I and others have been writing
consistently and repeatedly in code reviews.

This is a partial revert of r280013. Brad King pointed out these variable names are matching CMake conventions, so we should preserve them.
I've also added a direct mapping of the LLVM_*_DIR variables which we need to make projects support building in and out of tree.
