We now expect each module's identification block to appear immediately before
the module block. Any module block that appears without an identification block
immediately before it is interpreted as if it does not have a module block.
Also change the interpretation of VST and function offsets in bitcode.
The offset is always taken as relative to the start of the identification
(or module if not present) block, minus one word. This corresponds to the
historical interpretation of offsets, i.e. relative to the start of the file.
These changes allow for bitcode modules to be concatenated by copying bytes.

The functions getBitcodeTargetTriple(), isBitcodeContainingObjCCategory(),
getBitcodeProducerString() and hasGlobalValueSummary() now return errors
via their return value rather than via the diagnostic handler.
To make this work, re-implement these functions using non-member functions
so that they can be used without the LLVMContext required by BitcodeReader.

Summary:
Split ReaderWriter.h which contains the APIs into both the BitReader and
BitWriter libraries into BitcodeReader.h and BitcodeWriter.h.
This is to address Chandler's concern about sharing the same API header
between multiple libraries (BitReader and BitWriter). That concern is
why we create a single bitcode library in our downstream build of clang,
which led to r286297 being reverted as it added a dependency that
created a cycle only when there is a single bitcode library (not two as
in upstream).
