Problem: LLVM needs more function attributes than currently available (32 bits).
One such proposed attribute is "address_safety", which shows that a function is being checked for address safety (by AddressSanitizer, SAFECode, etc).
Solution:
- extend the Attributes from 32 bits to 64-bits
- wrap the object into a class so that unsigned is never erroneously used instead
- change "unsigned" to "Attributes" throughout the code, including one place in clang.
- the class has no "operator uint64 ()", but it has "uint64_t Raw() " to support packing/unpacking.
- the class has "safe operator bool()" to support the common idiom: if (Attributes attr = getAttrs()) useAttrs(attr);
- The CTOR from uint64_t is marked explicit, so I had to add a few explicit CTOR calls
- Add the new attribute "address_safety". Doing it in the same commit to check that attributes beyond first 32 bits actually work.
- Some of the functions from the Attribute namespace are worth moving inside the class, but I'd prefer to have it as a separate commit.
Tested:
"make check" on Linux (32-bit and 64-bit) and Mac (10.6)
built/run spec CPU 2006 on Linux with clang -O2.
This change will break clang build in lib/CodeGen/CGCall.cpp.
The following patch will fix it.

This has the obvious advantage of being commutable and is always a win on x86 because
const - x wastes a register there. On less weird architectures this may lead to
a regression because other arithmetic doesn't fuse with it anymore. I'll address that
problem in a followup.

combining of the landingpad instruction. The ObjC personality function acts
almost identically to the C++ personality function. In particular, it uses
"null" as a "catch-all" value.

profile metadata at the same time. Use it to preserve metadata attached
to a branch when re-writing it in InstCombine.
Add metadata to the canonicalize_branch InstCombine test, and check that
it is tranformed correctly.

Just pull the instruction name, but don't change the order of anything
else. That keeps --debug happy and non-crashing, but doesn't change
how the worklist gets built.
llvm-svn: 141210
When updating the worklist for InstCombine, the Add/AddUsersToWorklist
functions may access the instruction(s) being added, for debug output for
example. If the instructions aren't yet added to the basic block, this
can result in a crash. Finish the instruction transformation before
adjusting the worklist instead.

catch or repeated filter clauses. Teach instcombine a bunch
of tricks for simplifying landingpad clauses. Currently the
code only recognizes the GNU C++ and Ada personality functions,
but that doesn't stop it doing a bunch of "generic" transforms
which are hopefully fine for any real-world personality function.
If these "generic" transforms turn out not to be generic, they
can always be conditioned on the personality function. Probably
someone should add the ObjC++ personality function. I didn't as
I don't know anything about it.
