Christopher Di Bella e9ef45635b [clang] adds unary type transformations as compiler built-ins
Adds

* `__add_lvalue_reference`
* `__add_pointer`
* `__add_rvalue_reference`
* `__decay`
* `__make_signed`
* `__make_unsigned`
* `__remove_all_extents`
* `__remove_extent`
* `__remove_const`
* `__remove_volatile`
* `__remove_cv`
* `__remove_pointer`
* `__remove_reference`
* `__remove_cvref`

These are all compiler built-in equivalents of the unary type traits
found in [[meta.trans]][1]. The compiler already has all of the
information it needs to answer these transformations, so we can skip
needing to make partial specialisations in standard library
implementations (we already do this for a lot of the query traits). This
will hopefully improve compile times, as we won't need use as much
memory in such a base part of the standard library.

Nico Weber aacf1a9742 Revert "[clang] adds unary type transformations as compiler built-ins"
This reverts commit bc60cf2368.
Doesn't build on Windows and breaks gcc 9 build, see
https://reviews.llvm.org/D116203#3722094 and
https://reviews.llvm.org/D116203#3722128

Also revert two follow-ups. One fixed a warning added in
bc60cf2368, the other
makes use of the feature added in bc60cf2368
in libc++:

Revert "[libcxx][NFC] utilises compiler builtins for unary transform type-traits"
This reverts commit 06a1d917ef.

Revert "[Sema] Fix a warning"
This reverts commit c85abbe879.
