They're not necessary (since the stack pointer is trivially restored on
return), and the way LLVM inserts the stackrestore calls breaks the
IR (we get a stackrestore between the deoptimize call and the return).

They're not necessary (since the lifetime of the alloca is trivially
over due to the return), and the way LLVM inserts the lifetime.end
markers breaks the IR (we get a lifetime end marker between the
deoptimize call and the return).

Summary:
This intrinsic, together with deoptimization operand bundles, allow
frontends to express transfer of control and frame-local state from
one (typically more specialized, hence faster) version of a function
into another (typically more generic, hence slower) version.
In languages with a fully integrated managed runtime this intrinsic can
be used to implement "uncommon trap" like functionality. In unmanaged
languages like C and C++, this intrinsic can be used to represent the
slow paths of specialized functions.
Note: this change does not address how `@llvm.experimental_deoptimize`
is lowered. That will be done in a later change.
