It's entirely possible (because it actually happened) for a bool
variable to end up with a 256-bit DW_AT_const_value. This came about
when a local bool variable was initialized from a bitfield in a
32-byte struct of bitfields, and after inlining and constant
propagation, the variable did have a constant value. The sequence of
optimizations had it carrying "i256" values around, but once the
constant made it into the llvm.dbg.value, no further IR changes could
affect it.
Technically the llvm.dbg.value did have a DIExpression to reduce it
back down to 8 bits, but the compiler is in no way ready to emit an
oversized constant *and* a DWARF expression to manipulate it.
Depending on the circumstances, we had either just the very fat bool
value, or an expression with no starting value.
The sequence of optimizations that led to this state did seem pretty
reasonable, so the solution I came up with was to invent a DWARF
constant expression folder. Currently it only does convert ops, but
there's no reason it couldn't do other ops if that became useful.
This broke three tests that depended on having convert ops survive
into the DWARF, so I added an operator that would abort the folder to
each of those tests.

Testing reveals that lldb and gdb have some problems with supporting
DW_OP_convert - gdb with Split DWARF tries to resolve the CU-relative
DIE offset relative to the skeleton DIE. lldb tries to treat the offset
as absolute, which judging by the llvm-dsymutil support for
DW_OP_convert, I guess works OK in MachO? (though probably llvm-dsymutil
is producing invalid DWARF by resolving the relative reference to an
absolute one?).
Specifically this disables DW_OP_convert usage in DWARFv5 if:
* Tuning for GDB and using Split DWARF
* Tuning for LLDB and not targeting MachO
Trace through multiple COPYs when looking for a physreg source. Add
hinting for vregs that will be copied into physregs (we only hinted
for vregs getting copied to a physreg previously). Give hinted a
register a bonus when deciding which value to spill. This is part of
my rewrite regallocfast series. In fact this one doesn't even have an
effect unless you also flip the allocation to happen from back to
front of a basic block. Nonetheless it helps to split this up to ease

The condition !AddrPool.empty() is tested before attachRangesOrLowHighPC(), which may add an entry to AddrPool. We emit DW_AT_low_pc (DW_FORM_addrx) but may incorrectly omit DW_AT_addr_base for LineTablesOnly. This can be easily reproduced:
clang -gdwarf-5 -gmlt -c a.cc
Fix this by moving !AddrPool.empty() below.
This was discovered while investigating an lld crash (fixed by D61889) on such object files: ld.lld --gdb-index a.o
