ADT: Require explicit ilist iterator/pointer conversions

Disallow implicit conversions between ilist iterators and element
points.  Explicit conversions still work of course.

This is the first step toward removing the undefined behaviour in
`ilist` and `iplist`:
http://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/llvm-dev/2015-October/091115.html

The motivation for removing the implicit iterators is that I came across
real bugs (that were *really* getting lucky).  More details and some
brief discussion later in that thread:
http://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/llvm-dev/2015-October/091617.html

Note: if you have out-of-tree code, it should be fairly easy to revert
this patch downstream while you update your out-of-tree call sites.
Note that these conversions are occasionally latent bugs (that may
happen to "work" now, but only because of getting lucky with UB;
follow-ups will change your luck).  When they are valid, I suggest using
`->getIterator()` to go from pointer to iterator, and `&*` to go from
iterator to pointer.
