This patch adds a new ExecutionPolicy, eExecutionPolicyTopLevel, which
tells the expression parser that the expression should be JITted as top
level code but nothing (except static initializers) should be run. I
have modified the Clang expression parser to recognize this execution
policy. On top of the existing patches that support storing IR and
maintaining a map of arbitrary Decls, this is mainly just patching up a
few places in the expression parser.
I intend to submit a patch for review that exposes this functionality
through the "expression" command and through the SB API. That patch
also includes a testcase for all of this.

Since IRExecutionUnit is now capable of looking up symbols, and the JIT is up to
the task of generating the appropriate relocations, we don't need to do all the
work that IRForTarget used to do to fixup symbols at the IR level.
We also don't need to allocate data manually (with its attendant bugs) because
the JIT is capable of doing so without crashing.
We also don't need the awkward lldb.call.realName metadata to determine what
calls are objc_msgSend, because they now just reference objc_msgSend.
To make this work, we ensure that we recognize which symbols are extern "C" and
report them to the compiler as such. We also report the full Decl of functions
rather than just making up top-level functions with the appropriate types.
This should not break any testcases, but let me know if you run into any issues.

There are still a bunch of dependencies on the plug-in, but this helps to
identify them.
There are also a few more bits we need to move (and abstract, for example the
ClangPersistentVariables).
