In the textual format, `noduplicates` means no COMDAT/section group
deduplication is performed. Therefore, if both sets of sections are retained, and
they happen to define strong external symbols with the same names,
there will be a duplicate definition linker error.
In PE/COFF, the selection kind lowers to `IMAGE_COMDAT_SELECT_NODUPLICATES`.
The name describes the corollary instead of the immediate semantics. The name
can cause confusion to other binary formats (ELF, wasm) which have implemented/
want to implement the "no deduplication" selection kind. Rename it to be clearer.

This adds an elementtype(<ty>) attribute, which can be used to
attach an element type to a pointer typed argument. It is similar
to byval/byref in purpose, but unlike those does not carry any
specific semantics by itself. However, certain intrinsics may
require it and interpret it in specific ways.
The in-tree use cases for this that I'm currently aware of are:
call ptr @llvm.preserve.array.access.index.p0.p0(ptr elementtype(%ty) %base, i32 %dim, i32 %index)
call ptr @llvm.preserve.struct.access.index.p0.p0(ptr elementtype(%ty) %base, i32 %gep_index, i32 %di_index)

Notably, the gc.statepoint case needs a function as element type,
in which case the workaround of adding a separate %ty undef

This new MIR pass removes redundant DBG_VALUEs.
After the register allocator is done, more precisely, after
the Virtual Register Rewriter, we end up having duplicated
DBG_VALUEs, since some virtual registers are being rewritten
into the same physical register as some of existing DBG_VALUEs.
Each DBG_VALUE should indicate (at least before the LiveDebugValues)
variables assignment, but it is being clobbered for function
parameters during the SelectionDAG since it generates new DBG_VALUEs
after COPY instructions, even though the parameter has no assignment.
For example, if we had a DBG_VALUE $regX as an entry debug value
representing the parameter, and a COPY and after the COPY,
DBG_VALUE $virt_reg, and after the virtregrewrite the $virt_reg gets
rewritten into $regX, we'd end up having redundant DBG_VALUE.
This breaks the definition of the DBG_VALUE since some analysis passes
might be built on top of that premise..., and this patch tries to fix
the MIR with the respect to that.
This first patch performs bacward scan, by trying to detect a sequence of
consecutive DBG_VALUEs, and to remove all DBG_VALUEs describing one
variable but the last one:
For example:
(1) DBG_VALUE $edi, !"var1", ...
(2) DBG_VALUE $esi, !"var2", ...
(3) DBG_VALUE $edi, !"var1", ...
...
in this case, we can remove (1).
By combining the forward scan that will be introduced in the next patch
(from this stack), by inspecting the statistics, the RemoveRedundantDebugValues
removes 15032 instructions by using gdb-7.11 as a testbed.

This patch augments Lit with the ability to parse regular expressions

Regular expressions can be specified by enclosing them in {{...}},
similarly to how FileCheck handles such regular expressions. The regular
expression can either be on its own, or it can be part of an identifier.
For example, a match expression like {{.+}}-apple-darwin{{.+}} would match
the following variables:
x86_64-apple-darwin20.0
arm64-apple-darwin20.0
arm64-apple-darwin22.0
etc...
In the long term, this could be used to remove the need to handle the

Add UNIQUED and DISTINCT properties in Metadata.def and use them to
implement restrictions on the `distinct` property of MDNodes:
* DIExpression can currently be parsed from IR or read from bitcode
as `distinct`, but this property is silently dropped when printing
to IR. This causes accepted IR to fail to round-trip. As DIExpression
appears inline at each use in the canonical form of IR, it cannot
actually be `distinct` anyway, as there is no syntax to describe it.
* Similarly, DIArgList is conceptually always uniqued. It is currently
restricted to only appearing in contexts where there is no syntax for
`distinct`, but for consistency it is treated equivalently to
DIExpression in this patch.
* DICompileUnit is already restricted to always being `distinct`, but
along with adding general support for the inverse restriction I went
ahead and described this in Metadata.def and updated the parser to be
general. Future nodes which have this restriction can share this
support.
The new UNIQUED property applies to DIExpression and DIArgList, and
forbids them to be `distinct`. It also implies they are canonically
printed inline at each use, rather than via MDNode ID.
The new DISTINCT property applies to DICompileUnit, and requires it to
be `distinct`.
A potential alternative change is to forbid the non-inline syntax for
DIExpression entirely, as is done with DIArgList implicitly by requiring
it appear in the context of a function. For example, we would forbid:
!named = !{!0}
!0 = !DIExpression()
Instead we would only accept the equivalent inlined version:
!named = !{!DIExpression()}
This essentially removes the ability to create a `distinct` DIExpression
by construction, as there is no syntax for `distinct` inline. If this
patch is accepted as-is, the result would be that the non-canonical
version is accepted, but the following would be an error and produce a diagnostic:
!named = !{!0}
; error: 'distinct' not allowed for !DIExpression()
!0 = distinct !DIExpression()
Also update some documentation to consistently use the inline syntax for
DIExpression, and to describe the restrictions on `distinct` for nodes
where applicable.
