analyses to have a common type which is enforced rather than using
a char object and a `void *` type when used as an identifier.
This has a number of advantages. First, it at least helps some of the
confusion raised in Justin Lebar's code review of why `void *` was being
used everywhere by having a stronger type that connects to documentation
about this.
However, perhaps more importantly, it addresses a serious issue where
the alignment of these pointer-like identifiers was unknown. This made
it hard to use them in pointer-like data structures. We were already
dodging this in dangerous ways to create the "all analyses" entry. In
a subsequent patch I attempted to use these with TinyPtrVector and
things fell apart in a very bad way.
And it isn't just a compile time or type system issue. Worse than that,
the actual alignment of these pointer-like opaque identifiers wasn't
guaranteed to be a useful alignment as they were just characters.
This change introduces a type to use as the "key" object whose address
forms the opaque identifier. This both forces the objects to have proper
alignment, and provides type checking that we get it right everywhere.
It also makes the types somewhat less mysterious than `void *`.
We could go one step further and introduce a truly opaque pointer-like
type to return from the `ID()` static function rather than returning
`AnalysisKey *`, but that didn't seem to be a clear win so this is just
the initial change to get to a reliably typed and aligned object serving
is a key for all the analyses.
Thanks to Richard Smith and Justin Lebar for helping pick plausible
names and avoid making this refactoring many times. =] And thanks to
Sean for the super fast review!
While here, I've tried to move away from the "PassID" nomenclature
entirely as it wasn't really helping and is overloaded with old pass
manager constructs. Now we have IDs for analyses, and key objects whose
address can be used as IDs. Where possible and clear I've shortened this
to just "ID". In a few places I kept "AnalysisID" to make it clear what
was being identified.

Summary:
Instead of using the workaround of suppressing the entire index for
modules that call inline asm that may reference locals, use the
NoRename flag on the summary for any locals in the llvm.used set, and
add a reference edge from any functions containing inline asm.
This avoids issues from having no summaries despite the module defining
global values, which was preventing more aggressive index-based
optimization. It will be followed by a subsequent patch to make a
similar fix for local references in module level asm (to fix PR30610).

Summary:
This patch improves thinlto importer
by importing 3x larger functions that are called from hot block.
I compared performance with the trunk on spec, and there
were about 2% on povray and 3.33% on milc. These results seems
to be consistant and match the results Teresa got with her simple
heuristic. Some benchmarks got slower but I think they are just
noisy (mcf, xalancbmki, omnetpp)- running the benchmarks again with
more iterations to confirm. Geomean of all benchmarks including the noisy ones
were about +0.02%.
I see much better improvement on google branch with Easwaran patch
for pgo callsite inlining (the inliner actually inline those big functions)
Over all I see +0.5% improvement, and I get +8.65% on povray.
So I guess we will see much bigger change when Easwaran patch will land
(it depends on new pass manager), but it is still worth putting this to trunk
before it.
Implementation details changes:
- Removed CallsiteCount.
- ProfileCount got replaced by Hotness
- hot-import-multiplier is set to 3.0 for now,
didn't have time to tune it up, but I see that we get most of the interesting
functions with 3, so there is no much performance difference with higher, and
binary size doesn't grow as much as with 10.0.

directly produce the index as the value type result.
This requires making the index movable which is straightforward. It
greatly simplifies things by allowing us to completely avoid the builder
API and the layers of abstraction inherent there. Instead both pass
managers can directly construct these when run by value. They still
won't be constructed truly eagerly thanks to the optional in the legacy
PM. The code that directly builds the index can also just share a direct
function.
A notable change here is that the result type of the analysis for the
new PM is no longer a reference type. This was really problematic when
making changes to how we handle result types to make our interface
requirements *much* more strict and precise. But I think this is an
overall improvement.

Summary:
Port the ModuleSummaryAnalysisWrapperPass to the new pass manager.
Use it in the ported BitcodeWriterPass (similar to how we use the
legacy ModuleSummaryAnalysisWrapperPass in the legacy WriteBitcodePass).
Also, pass the -module-summary opt flag through to the new pass
manager pipeline and through to the bitcode writer pass, and add
a test that uses it.

Summary:
Remove the GlobalValueInfo and change the ModuleSummaryIndex to directly
reference summary objects. The info structure was there to support lazy
parsing of the combined index summary objects, which is no longer
needed and not supported.

Summary:
This is the first step in also serializing the index out to LLVM
assembly.
The per-module summary written to bitcode is moved out of the bitcode
writer and to a new analysis pass (ModuleSummaryIndexWrapperPass).
The pass itself uses a new builder class to compute index, and the
builder class is used directly in places where we don't have a pass
manager (e.g. llvm-as).
Because we are computing summaries outside of the bitcode writer, we no
longer can use value ids created by the bitcode writer's
ValueEnumerator. This required changing the reference graph edge type
to use a new ValueInfo class holding a union between a GUID (combined
index) and Value* (permodule index). The Value* are converted to the
appropriate value ID during bitcode writing.
Also, this enables removal of the BitWriter library's dependence on the
Analysis library that was previously required for the summary computation.
