Summary: SampleProfile pass needs to be performed after InstructionCombiningPass, which helps eliminate un-inlinable function calls.

The existing coverage tracker counts the number of records that were used
from the input profile. An alternative view of coverage is to check how
many available samples were applied.
This way, if the profile contains several records with few samples, it
doesn't really matter much that they were not applied. The more
interesting records to apply are the ones that contribute many samples.

While debugging some sampling coverage problems, I found this useful:
When applying samples from a profile, it helps to also know what line
offset and discriminator the sample belongs to. This makes it easy to
correlate against the input profile.

Previously, subprograms contained a metadata reference to the function they
described. Because most clients need to get or set a subprogram for a given
function rather than the other way around, this created unneeded inefficiency.
For example, many passes needed to call the function llvm::makeSubprogramMap()
to build a mapping from functions to subprograms, and the IR linker needed to
fix up function references in a way that caused quadratic complexity in the IR
linking phase of LTO.
This change reverses the direction of the edge by storing the subprogram as
function-level metadata and removing DISubprogram's function field.
Since this is an IR change, a bitcode upgrade has been provided.
Fixes PR23367. An upgrade script for textual IR for out-of-tree clients is
attached to the PR.

The initial coverage checking code for sample records failed to count
records inside inlined profiles. This change fixes the oversight.
