This enabled opaque pointers by default in LLVM. The effect of this
is twofold:
* If IR that contains *neither* explicit ptr nor %T* types is passed
to tools, we will now use opaque pointer mode, unless
-opaque-pointers=0 has been explicitly passed.
* Users of LLVM as a library will now default to opaque pointers.
It is possible to opt-out by calling setOpaquePointers(false) on
LLVMContext.
A cmake option to toggle this default will not be provided. Frontends
or other tools that want to (temporarily) keep using typed pointers
should disable opaque pointers via LLVMContext.

This provides rudimentary testing of the llvm-c api.
The following commands are implemented:
* --module-dump
Read bytecode from stdin - print ir
* --module-list-functions
Read bytecode from stdin - list summary of functions
* --module-list-globals
Read bytecode from stdin - list summary of globals
* --targets-list
List available targets
* --object-list-sections
Read object file from stdin - list sections
* --object-list-symbols
Read object file from stdin - list symbols (like nm)
* --disassemble
Read lines of triple, hex ascii machine code from stdin - print disassembly
* --calc
Read lines of name, rpn from stdin - print generated module ir
