This differs from the previous version by being more careful about template
instantiation/specialization in order to prevent errors when building with
clang -Werror. Specifically:
* begin is not defined in the template and is instead instantiated when Head
is. I think the warning when we don't do that is wrong (PR28815) but for now
at least do it this way to avoid the warning.
* Instead of performing template specializations in LLVM_INSTANTIATE_REGISTRY
instead provide a template definition then do explicit instantiation. No
compiler I've tried has problems with doing it the other way, but strictly
speaking it's not permitted by the C++ standard so better safe than sorry.
Original commit message:
Currently the Registry class contains the vestiges of a previous attempt to
allow plugins to be used on Windows without using BUILD_SHARED_LIBS, where a
plugin would have its own copy of a registry and export it to be imported by
the tool that's loading the plugin. This only works if the plugin is entirely
self-contained with the only interface between the plugin and tool being the
registry, and in particular this conflicts with how IR pass plugins work.
This patch changes things so that instead the add_node function of the registry
is exported by the tool and then imported by the plugin, which solves this
problem and also means that instead of every plugin having to export every
registry they use instead LLVM only has to export the add_node functions. This
allows plugins that use a registry to work on Windows if
LLVM_EXPORT_SYMBOLS_FOR_PLUGINS is used.

This version has two fixes compared to the original:
* In Registry.h the template static members are instantiated before they are
used, as clang gives an error if you do it the other way around.
* The use of the Registry template in clang-tidy is updated in the same way as
has been done everywhere else.

This shouldn't have any functional difference, but it appears to be the
pattern used for other methods on DynamicLibrary, and it should avoid
the -Wpedantic warning on one of the build bots about the direct
reinterpret_cast.

On Windows, the DLL containing the registry will get its own global head
and tail variables, so the entries registered in the DLL will be
invisible to the consumer.
In order to solve this, we need to export a getter function from the
plugin DLL per registry and copy over the data inside it. This patch
adds support for this. This will be used to support clang plugins on
Windows.

According the build bots, clang is using the Registry class somewhere as well. Will reapply with appropriate clang changes at a later point.

The Registry class constructs a linked list of nodes whose storage is inside static variables and nodes are added via static initializers. The trick is that those static initializers are in both the LLVM code base, and some random plugin that might get loaded in at runtime. The existing code tries to use C++ templates and their ODR rules to get a single definition of the registry for each type, but, experimentally, this doesn't quite work as designed. (Well, the entire structure doesn't. It might not actually be an ODR problem.)
Previously, when I tried moving the GCStrategy class (along with it's registry) from CodeGen to IR, I ran into a problem where asking the GCStrategyRegistry a question would return inconsistent results depending on whether you asked from CodeGen (where the static initializers still were) or Transforms. My best guess is that this is a result of either a) an order of initialization error, or b) we ended up with two copies of the registry being created. I remember at the time having convinced myself it was probably (b), but I don't have any of my notes around from that investigation any more.
See http://reviews.llvm.org/rL226311 for the original patch in question.
This patch tries to remove the possibility of (b) above. (a) was already fixed in change 258109.

The only two Registries we have in the system are the GCStrategy and GCMetadataPrinter ones. Registry has a bunch of problems - for instance, order of initialization is undefined - and the code was overly general for what was actually used. I hope to completely kill Registry in the near future, but for now, just delete all the unused listener and parsing support.

Note: This change ended up being slightly more controversial than expected. Chandler has tentatively okayed this for the moment, but I may be revisiting this in the near future after we settle some high level questions.
Rather than have the GCStrategy object owned by the GCModuleInfo - which is an immutable analysis pass used mainly by gc.root - have it be owned by the LLVMContext. This simplifies the ownership logic (i.e. can you have two instances of the same strategy at once?), but more importantly, allows us to access the GCStrategy in the middle end optimizer. To this end, I add an accessor through Function which becomes the canonical way to get at a GCStrategy instance.
In the near future, this will allows me to move some of the checks from http://reviews.llvm.org/D6808 into the Verifier itself, and to introduce optimization legality predicates for some of the recent additions to InstCombine. (These will follow as separate changes.)

utils/sort_includes.py.
I clearly haven't done this in a while, so more changed than usual. This
even uncovered a missing include from the InstrProf library that I've
added. No functionality changed here, just mechanical cleanup of the
include order.
