This to protect against non-sensical instruction sequences being assembled,
which would either cause asserts/crashes further down, or a Wasm module being output that doesn't validate.
Unlike a validator, this type checker is able to give type-errors as part of the parsing process, which makes the assembler much friendlier to be used by humans writing manual input.
Because the MC system is single pass (instructions aren't even stored in MC format, they are directly output) the type checker has to be single pass as well, which means that from now on .globaltype and .functype decls must come before their use. An extra pass is added to Codegen to collect information for this purpose, since AsmPrinter is normally single pass / streaming as well, and would otherwise generate this information on the fly.
A `-no-type-check` flag was added to llvm-mc (and any other tools that take asm input) that surpresses type errors, as a quick escape hatch for tests that were not intended to be type correct.
This is a first version of the type checker that ignores control flow, i.e. it checks that types are correct along the linear path, but not the branch path. This will still catch most errors. Branch checking could be added in the future.

The WebAssembly text and binary formats have different operand orders
for the "type" and "table" fields of call_indirect (and
return_call_indirect). In LLVM we use the binary order for the MCInstr,
but when we produce or consume the text format we should use the text
order. For compilation units targetting WebAssembly 1.0 (without the
reference types feature), we omit the table operand entirely.

If the reference-types feature is enabled, call_indirect will explicitly
reference its corresponding function table via TABLE_NUMBER
relocations against a table symbol.
Also, as before, address-taken functions can also cause the function
table to be created, only with reference-types they additionally cause a
symbol table entry to be emitted.

relocations against a table symbol.

We abuse the used-in-reloc flag on symbols to indicate which tables
should end up in the symbol table. We do this because unfortunately
older wasm-ld will carp if it see a table symbol.

This reverts commit 418df4a6ab.
This change broke emscripten tests, I believe because it started
generating 5-byte a wide table index in the call_indirect instruction.
Neither v8 nor wabt seem to be able to handle that. The spec
currently says that this is single 0x0 byte and:
"In future versions of WebAssembly, the zero byte occurring in the
encoding of the call_indirectcall_indirect instruction may be used to
index additional tables."
So we need to revisit this change. For backwards compat I guess
we need to guarantee that __indirect_function_table is always at
address zero. We could also consider making this a single-byte
relocation with and assert if have more than 127 tables (for now).

This patch changes to make call_indirect explicitly refer to the
corresponding function table, residualizing TABLE_NUMBER relocs against
it.
With this change, wasm-ld now sees all references to tables, and can
link multiple tables.

A TYPE_INDEX operand (as used by call_indirect) used to be represented
by the InstPrinter as a symbol (e.g. .Ltype_index0@TYPE_INDEX) which
was a bit of a mismatch with the WasmObjectWriter which expects an
unnamed symbol, to receive the signature from and then turn into a
reloc.
There was really no good way to round-trip this information. An earlier
version of this patch tried to attach the signature information using
a .functype, but that ran into trouble when the symbol was re-emitted
without a name. Removing the name was a giant hack also.
The current version changes the assembly syntax to have an inline
signature spec for TYPEINDEX operands that is always unnamed, which
is much more elegant both in syntax and in implementation (as now the
assembler is able to follow the same path as the regular backend)

Summary:
Implements direct and indirect tail calls enabled by the 'tail-call'
feature in both DAG ISel and FastISel. Updates existing call tests and
adds new tests including a binary encoding test.
