This to protect against non-sensical instruction sequences being assembled,
which would either cause asserts/crashes further down, or a Wasm module being output that doesn't validate.
Unlike a validator, this type checker is able to give type-errors as part of the parsing process, which makes the assembler much friendlier to be used by humans writing manual input.
Because the MC system is single pass (instructions aren't even stored in MC format, they are directly output) the type checker has to be single pass as well, which means that from now on .globaltype and .functype decls must come before their use. An extra pass is added to Codegen to collect information for this purpose, since AsmPrinter is normally single pass / streaming as well, and would otherwise generate this information on the fly.
A `-no-type-check` flag was added to llvm-mc (and any other tools that take asm input) that surpresses type errors, as a quick escape hatch for tests that were not intended to be type correct.
This is a first version of the type checker that ignores control flow, i.e. it checks that types are correct along the linear path, but not the branch path. This will still catch most errors. Branch checking could be added in the future.

Summary:
This patch fixes clang-tidy warnings on wasm-only files.
The list of checks used is:
`-*,clang-diagnostic-*,llvm-*,misc-*,-misc-unused-parameters,readability-identifier-naming,modernize-*`
(LLVM's default .clang-tidy list is the same except it does not have
`modernize-*`. But I've seen in multiple CLs in LLVM the modernize style
was recommended and code was fixed based on the style, so I added it as
well.)
The common fixes are:
- Variable names start with an uppercase letter
- Function names start with a lowercase letter
- Use `auto` when you use casts so the type is evident
- Use inline initialization for class member variables
- Use `= default` for empty constructors / destructors
- Use `using` in place of `typedef`

to reflect the new license.
We understand that people may be surprised that we're moving the header
entirely to discuss the new license. We checked this carefully with the
Foundation's lawyer and we believe this is the correct approach.
Essentially, all code in the project is now made available by the LLVM
project under our new license, so you will see that the license headers
include that license only. Some of our contributors have contributed
code under our old license, and accordingly, we have retained a copy of
our old license notice in the top-level files in each project and
repository.

We've been running doxygen with the autobrief option for a couple of
years now. This makes the \brief markers into our comments
redundant. Since they are a visual distraction and we don't want to
encourage more \brief markers in new code either, this patch removes
them all.

Previously we were using the encoded LEB hex values
for the value types. This change uses the decoded
negative value and the LEB encoder to write them out.

LLVM CodeGen emits references to external symbols that are never declared in
LLVM IR level, so they have no declared signature. However, WebAssembly requires
all functions be declared with signatures. This patch adds a table for providing
signatures for known runtime libcalls that will be used in subsequent patches to
emit declarations for such functions.
