Bitcast and certain Ptr2Int/Int2Ptr instructions will not alter the
value of their operand and can therefore be looked through when we
determine non-nullness.

The replaceAllDbgUsesWith utility helps passes preserve debug info when
replacing one value with another.
This improves upon the existing insertReplacementDbgValues API by:
- Updating debug intrinsics in-place, while preventing use-before-def of
the replacement value.
- Falling back to salvageDebugInfo when a replacement can't be made.
- Moving the responsibiliy for rewriting llvm.dbg.* DIExpressions into
common utility code.
Along with the API change, this teaches replaceAllDbgUsesWith how to
create DIExpressions for three basic integer and pointer conversions:
- The no-op conversion. Applies when the values have the same width, or
have bit-for-bit compatible pointer representations.
- Truncation. Applies when the new value is wider than the old one.
- Zero/sign extension. Applies when the new value is narrower than the
old one.
Testing:
- check-llvm, check-clang, a stage2 `-g -O3` build of clang,
regression/unit testing.
- This resolves a number of mis-sized dbg.value diagnostics from
Debugify.

In order to set breakpoints on labels and list source code around
labels, we need collect debug information for labels, i.e., label
name, the function label belong, line number in the file, and the
address label located. In order to keep these information in LLVM
IR and to allow backend to generate debug information correctly.
We create a new kind of metadata for labels, DILabel. The format
of DILabel is
!DILabel(scope: !1, name: "foo", file: !2, line: 3)
We hope to keep debug information as much as possible even the
code is optimized. So, we create a new kind of intrinsic for label
metadata to avoid the metadata is eliminated with basic block.
The intrinsic will keep existing if we keep it from optimized out.
The format of the intrinsic is
llvm.dbg.label(metadata !1)
It has only one argument, that is the DILabel metadata. The
intrinsic will follow the label immediately. Backend could get the
label metadata through the intrinsic's parameter.
We also create DIBuilder API for labels to be used by Frontend.
Frontend could use createLabel() to allocate DILabel objects, and use
insertLabel() to insert llvm.dbg.label intrinsic in LLVM IR.

Patch by Hsiangkai Wang.
llvm-svn: 331841
A cast from A to B is eliminable if its result is casted to C, and if
the pair of casts could just be expressed as a single cast. E.g here,
%c1 is eliminable:
%c1 = zext i16 %A to i32
%c2 = sext i32 %c1 to i64
InstCombine optimizes away eliminable casts. This patch teaches it to
insert a dbg.value intrinsic pointing to the final result, so that local
variables pointing to the eliminable result are preserved.

Summary:
Instcombine (and probably other passes) sometimes want to change the
type of an alloca. To do this, they generally create a new alloca with
the desired type, create a bitcast to make the new pointer type match
the old pointer type, replace all uses with the cast, and then simplify
the casts. We already knew how to salvage dbg.value instructions when
removing casts, but we can extend it to cover dbg.addr and dbg.declare.
