This removes debug locations from ConstantSDNode and ConstantSDFPNode.
When this kind of node is materialized we no longer create a line table
entry which jumps back to the constant's first point of use. This makes
single-stepping behavior smoother, and it matches the model used by IR,
where Constants have no locations. See this thread for more context:
http://lists.llvm.org/pipermail/llvm-dev/2018-June/124164.html
I'd like to handle constant BuildVectorSDNodes and to try to eliminate
passing SDLocs to SelectionDAG::getConstant*() in follow-up commits.

In order to set breakpoints on labels and list source code around
labels, we need collect debug information for labels, i.e., label
name, the function label belong, line number in the file, and the
address label located. In order to keep these information in LLVM
IR and to allow backend to generate debug information correctly.
We create a new kind of metadata for labels, DILabel. The format
of DILabel is
!DILabel(scope: !1, name: "foo", file: !2, line: 3)
We hope to keep debug information as much as possible even the
code is optimized. So, we create a new kind of intrinsic for label
metadata to avoid the metadata is eliminated with basic block.
The intrinsic will keep existing if we keep it from optimized out.
The format of the intrinsic is
llvm.dbg.label(metadata !1)
It has only one argument, that is the DILabel metadata. The
intrinsic will follow the label immediately. Backend could get the
label metadata through the intrinsic's parameter.
We also create DIBuilder API for labels to be used by Frontend.
Frontend could use createLabel() to allocate DILabel objects, and use
insertLabel() to insert llvm.dbg.label intrinsic in LLVM IR.
