Cleanup some bitrot in SourceLevelDebugging.rst.
- Pull the still-relevant details about individual descriptors into
LangRef.rst. Cut a lot of it to avoid over-describing the fields,
as the C++ classes and assembly format are mostly self-describing
now. If there's anything specific that I shouldn't have cut, let me
know and I'll add it back.
- Rewrite the remaining sections to refer to the new debug info
hierarchy in LangRef.rst.

After much bike shed discussions, we seem to agree to a few loose
but relevant guidelines on how to prepare a commit message. It also
points the attribution section to the new commit messages section
to deduplicate information.

* Moved autotools configure & build example out of "Getting Started Quickly (A Summary)" and into BuildingLLVMWithAutoTools.
* Removed the annotations that CMake is the recommended process and Autotools is alternate.
* Added brief documentation about build targets under "Getting Started Quickly..."
* Added Overview text to BuildingLLVMWithAutotools
* Fixed up a broken link.

Similar to gep (r230786) and load (r230794) changes.
Similar migration script can be used to update test cases, which
successfully migrated all of LLVM and Polly, but about 4 test cases
needed manually changes in Clang.
(this script will read the contents of stdin and massage it into stdout
- wrap it in the 'apply.sh' script shown in previous commits + xargs to
apply it over a large set of test cases)

Update the doxygen configuration file and Makefile build rules
to provide better output (simply use the default stylesheet and template
from the Doxygen distribution.)
This CL has upgrade doxygen.cfg.in to Doxygen 1.8.6.

These docs *don't* match the way WinEHPrepare uses them yet, and
verifier support isn't implemented either. The implementation will come
after the documentation text is reviewed and agreed upon.

These links seem broken on llvm.org/docs. Change them to use the
sphinx-recommended style to see if that helps.

Runtime unrolling is an expensive optimization which can bring benefit
only if the loop is hot and iteration number is relatively large enough.
For some loops, we know they are not worth to be runtime unrolled.
The scalar loop from vectorization is one of the cases.

These came from my own experience and may not apply equally to all use cases. Any alternate perspective anyone has should be used to refine these.
As always, grammar and spelling adjustments are more than welcome. Please just directly commit a fix if you see something problematic.

Here's a rough/first draft - it at least hits the actual textual IR
examples and some of the phrasing. It's probably worth a full pass over,
but I'm not sure how much these docs should reflect the strange
intermediate state we're in anyway.
Totally open to lots of review/feedback/suggestions.

Ultimately, __CxxFrameHandler3 needs us to put a stack offset in a
table, and it will take responsibility for copying the exception object
into that slot. Modelling the exception object as an SSA value returned
by begincatch isn't going to work in general, so make it use an output
parameter.

Move the specialized metadata nodes for the new debug info hierarchy
into place, finishing off PR22464. I've done bootstraps (and all that)
and I'm confident this commit is NFC as far as DWARF output is
concerned. Let me know if I'm wrong :).
The code changes are fairly mechanical:
- Bumped the "Debug Info Version".
- `DIBuilder` now creates the appropriate subclass of `MDNode`.
- Subclasses of DIDescriptor now expect to hold their "MD"
counterparts (e.g., `DIBasicType` expects `MDBasicType`).
- Deleted a ton of dead code in `AsmWriter.cpp` and `DebugInfo.cpp`
for printing comments.
- Big update to LangRef to describe the nodes in the new hierarchy.
Feel free to make it better.
Testcase changes are enormous. There's an accompanying clang commit on
its way.
If you have out-of-tree debug info testcases, I just broke your build.
- `upgrade-specialized-nodes.sh` is attached to PR22564. I used it to
update all the IR testcases.
- Unfortunately I failed to find way to script the updates to CHECK
lines, so I updated all of these by hand. This was fairly painful,
since the old CHECKs are difficult to reason about. That's one of
the benefits of the new hierarchy.
This work isn't quite finished, BTW. The `DIDescriptor` subclasses are
almost empty wrappers, but not quite: they still have loose casting
checks (see the `RETURN_FROM_RAW()` macro). Once they're completely
gutted, I'll rename the "MD" classes to "DI" and kill the wrappers. I
also expect to make a few schema changes now that it's easier to reason
about everything.

This could stand to be expanded - patches welcome! - but let's at least write them down so they don't get forgotten.

Patch by Evangelos Foutras:
r220899 started using ocamlfind to build the OCaml bindings but
docs/Makefile still contains references to the OCAMLDOC macro which
is no longer being defined. The result is that OCaml documentation
isn't generated/installed.

As mentioned on llvm-dev, this is a new documentation page intended to collect tips for frontend authors on how to generate IR that LLVM is able to optimize well. These types of things come up repeated in review threads and it would be good to have a place to save them.
I added a small handful to start us off, but I mostly want to get the framework in place. Once the docs are here, we can add to them incrementally. If you know of something appropriate for this page, please add it!

It didn't seem worth leaving behind a guideline to use '= delete' to
make a class uncopyable. That's a well known C++ design pattern.
Reported on the mailing list and in PR22724.

When I originally committed the statepoint docs, I left placeholders for example IR fragments. I'm finally getting around to filling those in.
I also added IR fragments to illustrate the usage of the PlaceSafepoints pass while I was at it.

Add a brief section linking to the experimental statepoint intrinsics analogous to the one we have linking to patchpoint.
While I'm here, cleanup some wording about what the gc "name" attribute actually means. It's not the name of a *collector* it's the name of the *strategy* which may be compatible with multiple collectors.
