This implements the 'landingpad' instruction. It's used to indicate that a basic
block is a landing pad. There are several restrictions on its use (see
LangRef.html for more detail). These restrictions allow the exception handling
code to gather the information it needs in a much more sane way.
This patch has the definition, implementation, C interface, parsing, and bitcode
support in it.

This adds the 'resume' instruction class, IR parsing, and bitcode reading and
writing. The 'resume' instruction resumes propagation of an existing (in-flight)
exception whose unwinding was interrupted with a 'landingpad' instruction (to be
added later).

'atomicrmw' instructions, which allow representing all the current atomic
rmw intrinsics.
The allowed operands for these instructions are heavily restricted at the
moment; we can probably loosen it a bit, but supporting general
first-class types (where it makes sense) might get a bit complicated,
given how SelectionDAG works.
As an initial cut, these operations do not support specifying an alignment,
but it would be possible to add if we think it's useful. Specifying an
alignment lower than the natural alignment would be essentially
impossible to support on anything other than x86, but specifying a greater
alignment would be possible. I can't think of any useful optimizations which
would use that information, but maybe someone else has ideas.
Optimizer/codegen support coming soon.

patch brings numerous advantages to LLVM. One way to look at it
is through diffstat:
109 files changed, 3005 insertions(+), 5906 deletions(-)
Removing almost 3K lines of code is a good thing. Other advantages
include:
1. Value::getType() is a simple load that can be CSE'd, not a mutating
union-find operation.
2. Types a uniqued and never move once created, defining away PATypeHolder.
3. Structs can be "named" now, and their name is part of the identity that
uniques them. This means that the compiler doesn't merge them structurally
which makes the IR much less confusing.
4. Now that there is no way to get a cycle in a type graph without a named
struct type, "upreferences" go away.
5. Type refinement is completely gone, which should make LTO much MUCH faster
in some common cases with C++ code.
6. Types are now generally immutable, so we can use "Type *" instead
"const Type *" everywhere.
Downsides of this patch are that it removes some functions from the C API,
so people using those will have to upgrade to (not yet added) new API.
"LLVM 3.0" is the right time to do this.
There are still some cleanups pending after this, this patch is large enough
as-is.

self-hosted build failure has been fixed (r133512)."

Change PHINodes to store simple pointers to their incoming basic blocks,
instead of full-blown Uses.
Note that this loses an optimization in SplitCriticalEdge(), because we
can no longer walk the use list of a BasicBlock to find phi nodes. See
the comment I removed starting "However, the foreach loop is slow for
blocks with lots of predecessors".
Extend replaceAllUsesWith() on a BasicBlock to also update any phi
nodes in the block's successors. This mimics what would have happened
when PHINodes were proper Users of their incoming blocks. (Note that
this only works if OldBB->replaceAllUsesWith(NewBB) is called when
OldBB still has a terminator instruction, so it still has some
successors.)

"this" pointer for any subclass of User, you could static_cast it to
User* and then reinterpret_cast that to Use* to get the end of the
operand list. This isn't a safe assumption in general, because the
static_cast might adjust the "this" pointer. Fixed by having these
OperandTraits classes take an extra template parameter, which is the
subclass of User. This is groundwork for PR889.

class, uses DominatorTree which is an analysis. This change moves all of
the tricky hasConstantValue logic to SimplifyInstruction, and replaces it
with a very simple literal implementation. I already taught users of
hasConstantValue that need tricky stuff to use SimplifyInstruction instead.
I didn't update InlineFunction because the IR looks like it might be in a
funky state at the point it calls hasConstantValue, which makes calling
SimplifyInstruction dangerous since it can in theory do a lot of tricky
reasoning. This may be a pessimization, for example in the case where
all phi node operands are either undef or a fixed constant.

alloca instructions (constrained by their internal encoding),
and add error checking for it. Fix an instcombine bug which
generated huge alignment values (null is infinitely aligned).
This fixes undefined behavior noticed by John Regehr.

with this commit the callee moves to the end of
the operand array (from the start) and the call
arguments now start at index 0 (formerly 1)
this ordering is now consistent with InvokeInst
this commit only flips the switch,
functionally it is equivalent to
r101465
I intend to commit several cleanups after a few
days of soak period

making all of CallInst's low-level operand accessors
private
If you get compile errors I strongly urge you to
update your code.
I tried to write the necessary clues into the
header where the compiler may point to, but no
guarantees. It works for my GCC.
You have several options to update your code:
- you can use the v2.8 ArgOperand accessors
- you can go via a temporary CallSite
- you can upcast to, say, User and call its
low-level accessors if your code is definitely
operand-order agnostic.
If you run into serious problems, please
comment in below thread (and back out this
revision only if absolutely necessary):
