It turns out that in C++ it is legal to declare functions

that return an opaque type by value, as long as you don't
call it or provide a body (you can take the address of it).
So it is wrong to insist that sret parameters not be an
opaque*.  And I guess it is really up to codegen to complain
if someone tries to call such a function.  I'm also removing
the analogous check from byval parameters, since I don't
see why we shouldn't allow them as long as no-one tries to
call the function or give it a body.
