Modules and ModuleProviders. Because the "ModuleProvider" simply materializes
GlobalValues now, and doesn't provide modules, it's renamed to
"GVMaterializer". Code that used to need a ModuleProvider to materialize
Functions can now materialize the Functions directly. Functions no longer use a
magic linkage to record that they're materializable; they simply ask the
GVMaterializer.
Because the C ABI must never change, we can't remove LLVMModuleProviderRef or
the functions that refer to it. Instead, because Module now exposes the same
functionality ModuleProvider used to, we store a Module* in any
LLVMModuleProviderRef and translate in the wrapper methods. The bindings to
other languages still use the ModuleProvider concept. It would probably be
worth some time to update them to follow the C++ more closely, but I don't
intend to do it.
Fixes http://llvm.org/PR5737 and http://llvm.org/PR5735.

getMDKindID/getMDKindNames methods to LLVMContext (and add
convenience methods to Module), eliminating MetadataContext.
Move the state that it maintains out to LLVMContext.

I asked Devang to do back on Sep 27. Instead of going through the
MetadataContext class with methods like getMD() and getMDs(), just
ask the instruction directly for its metadata with getMetadata()
and getAllMetadata().
This includes a variety of other fixes and improvements: previously
all Value*'s were bloated because the HasMetadata bit was thrown into
value, adding a 9th bit to a byte. Now this is properly sunk down to
the Instruction class (the only place where it makes sense) and it
will be folded away somewhere soon.
This also fixes some confusion in getMDs and its clients about
whether the returned list is indexed by the MDID or densely packed.
This is now returned sorted and densely packed and the comments make
this clear.
This introduces a number of fixme's which I'll follow up on.
llvm-svn: 92235
- an MDNode is designated as function-local when created, and continues to be even if its operands are modified not to refer to function-local IR
- function-localness is designated via lowest bit in SubclassData
- getLocalFunction() descends MDNode tree to see if it is consistently function-local
Add verification of MDNodes to checks that MDNodes are consistently function-local.
Update AsmWriter to use isFunctionLocal().

block with a blockaddress still referring to it' replace the invalid
blockaddress with a new blockaddress(@func, null) instead of a
inttoptr(1).
This changes the bitcode encoding format, and still needs codegen
support (this should produce a non-zero value, referring to the entry
block of the function would also be quite reasonable).
