* Instead of a #define, use inline function
* Fix the name on the #define, errr... now inline function to be more logical:
it doesn't CHECK the alignment, it PERFORMS the alignment
* To get string name of a Type*, use getDescription(), not getName()
llvm-svn: 8683
* Make sure we align the buffer we're given
* Do not let exceptions propagate when the caller asks for a Module*
* Add doxygenified comments to wrapper functions
llvm-svn: 8682
- no more passing around a string pointer to set errors
- no more returning booleans and checking for errors, we use C++ exceptions
* Broke functionality into 2 new classes, one reads from file, one from a stream
* Implemented lazy function streaming - the parser can read in a function at-a-time

- Null values are implicitly encoded instead of explicitly, this makes
things more compact!
- More compactly represent ConstantPointerRefs
- Bytecode files are represented as:
Header|GlobalTypes|GlobalVars/Function Protos|Constants|Functions|SymTab
instead of
Header|GlobalTypes|Constants|GlobalVars/Function Protos|Functions|SymTab
which makes a lot of things simpler.
Writer changes:
- We now explictly encode versioning information in the bytecode files.
- This allows new code to read bytecode files produced by old code, but
new bytecode files can have enhancements such as the above. Although this
makes the reader a bit more complex (having to deal with old formats), the
writer only needs to be able to produce the most recent version.

- Fix problems where the constant table would not get updated when
resolving constants causes other constants to change.
Changes to the V2 bytecode format
- Null values are implicitly encoded instead of explicitly, this makes
things more compact!
- More compactly represent ConstantPointerRefs
- Bytecode files are represented as:
Header|GlobalTypes|GlobalVars/Function Protos|Constants|Functions|SymTab
instead of
Header|GlobalTypes|Constants|GlobalVars/Function Protos|Functions|SymTab
which makes a lot of things simpler.
Changes to the reader:
- Function loading code is much simpler. We now no longer make function
PlaceHolderHelper objects to be replaced with real functions.
