Parallel regions are outlined as functions with capture variables explicitly generated as distinct parameters in the function's argument list. That complicates the fork_call interface in the OpenMP runtime: (1) the fork_call is variadic since there is a variable number of arguments to forward to the outlined function, (2) wrapping/unwrapping arguments happens in the OpenMP runtime, which is sub-optimal, has been a source of ABI bugs, and has a hardcoded limit (16) in the number of arguments, (3) forwarded arguments must cast to pointer types, which complicates debugging. This patch avoids those issues by aggregating captured arguments in a struct to pass to the fork_call.

This patch changes the generation of CGFunctionInfo to contain
the FunctionProtoType if it is available. This enables the code
generation for call instructions to look into this type for
exception information and therefore generate better quality
IR - it will not create invoke instructions for functions that
are know not to throw.
