This commit switches the underlying JIT for the Kaleidoscope tutorials from
MCJIT to a custom ORC-based JIT, KaleidoscopeJIT. This fixes a lot of the bugs
in Kaleidoscope that were introduced when we deleted the legacy JIT. The
documentation for Chapter 4, which introduces the JIT APIs, is updated to
reflect the change.
Also included are a number of C++11 modernizations and general cleanup. Where
appropriate, the docs have been updated to reflect these changes too.

Replace the general `createLocalVariable()` with two more specific
functions: `createParameterVariable()` and `createAutoVariable()`, and
rewrite the documentation.
Besides cleaning up the API, this avoids exposing the fake DWARF tags
`DW_TAG_arg_variable` and `DW_TAG_auto_variable` to frontends, and is
preparation for removing them completely.
llvm-svn: 243764
Add a verifier check that `DILocalVariable`s of tag
`DW_TAG_arg_variable` always have a non-zero 'arg:' field, and those of
tag `DW_TAG_auto_variable` always have a zero 'arg:' field. These are
the only configurations that are properly understood by the backend.
(Also, fix the bad examples in LangRef and test/Assembler, and fix the
bug in Kaleidoscope Ch8.)
A large number of testcases seem to have bitrotted their way forward
from some ancient version of the debug info hierarchy that didn't have
`arg:` parameters. If you have out-of-tree testcases that start failing
in the verifier and you don't care enough to get the `arg:` right, you
may have some luck just calling:
sed -e 's/, arg: 0/, arg: 1/'
or some such, but I hand-updated the ones in tree.

Finish off PR23080 by renaming the debug info IR constructs from `MD*`
to `DI*`. The last of the `DIDescriptor` classes were deleted in
r235356, and the last of the related typedefs removed in r235413, so
this has all baked for about a week.
Note: If you have out-of-tree code (like a frontend), I recommend that
you get everything compiling and tests passing with the *previous*
commit before updating to this one. It'll be easier to keep track of
what code is using the `DIDescriptor` hierarchy and what you've already
updated, and I think you're extremely unlikely to insert bugs. YMMV of
course.
Back to *this* commit: I did this using the rename-md-di-nodes.sh
upgrade script I've attached to PR23080 (both code and testcases) and
filtered through clang-format-diff.py. I edited the tests for
test/Assembler/invalid-generic-debug-node-*.ll by hand since the columns
were off-by-three. It should work on your out-of-tree testcases (and
code, if you've followed the advice in the previous paragraph).
Some of the tests are in badly named files now (e.g.,
test/Assembler/invalid-mdcompositetype-missing-tag.ll should be
'dicompositetype'); I'll come back and move the files in a follow-up
commit.

This has been bit-rotting, so fix it up. I'll have to edit this again
once the MD* classes have been renamed to DI* -- I'll try to remember to
do that with the commit that renames them.

DIBuilder to the language.
Thanks to David Blaikie for his assistance with this tutorial.

Some references to llvm-gcc were so crusty that I wasn't sure how to
proceed and so I've left them intact.
I also slipped in a quick peephole fix to use a :doc: link instead of
raw HTML link.
llvm-svn: 201619
Sorry for the massive commit, but I just wanted to knock this one down
and it is really straightforward.
There are still a couple trivial (i.e. not related to the content)
things left to fix:
- Use of raw HTML links where :doc:`...` and :ref:`...` could be used
instead. If you are a newbie and want to help fix this it would make
for some good bite-sized patches; more experienced developers should
be focusing on adding new content (to this tutorial or elsewhere, but
please _do not_ waste your time on formatting when there is such dire
need for documentation (see docs/SphinxQuickstartTemplate.rst to get
started writing)).
- Highlighting of the kaleidoscope code blocks (currently left as bare
`::`). I will be working on writing a custom Pygments highlighter for
this, mostly as training for maintaining the `llvm` code-block's lexer
in-tree. I want to do this because I am extremely unhappy with how it
just "gives up" on the slightest deviation from the expected syntax
and leaves the whole code-block un-highlighted.
More generally I am looking at writing some Sphinx extensions and
keeping them in-tree as well, to support common use cases that
currently have no good solution (like "monospace text inside a link").
