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.

This lifts a restriction on DILocation::getMergedLocation(), allowing it
to create merged locations for instructions other than calls.
Instruction::applyMergedLocation() now defaults to creating merged
locations for all instructions.
The default behavior of getMergedLocation() is unchanged: callers which
invoke it directly are unaffected.
This change will enable a follow-up Mem2Reg fix which improves crash
reporting.

If all the operands to a phi node are compares that have a RHS constant,
instcombine will try to pull them through the phi node, combining them into
a single operation. When it does this, the debug location of the new op
should be the merged debug locations of the phi node arguments.
