LLVM IR recently added a Type parameter to the byval Attribute, so that
when pointers become opaque and no longer have an element type the
information will still be present in IR.
For now the Type parameter is optional (which is why Clang didn't need
this change at the time), but it will become mandatory soon.

Summary:
If a function argument is byval and RV is located in default or alloca address space
an optimization of creating addrspacecast instead of memcpy is performed. That is
not correct for OpenCL, where that can lead to a situation of address space casting
from __private * to __global *. See an example below:
```
typedef struct {
int x;
} MyStruct;
void foo(MyStruct val) {}
kernel void KernelOneMember(__global MyStruct* x) {
foo (*x);
}
```
for this code clang generated following IR:
...
%0 = load %struct.MyStruct addrspace(1)*, %struct.MyStruct addrspace(1)**
%x.addr, align 4
%1 = addrspacecast %struct.MyStruct addrspace(1)* %0 to %struct.MyStruct*
...
So the optimization was disallowed for OpenCL if RV is located in an address space
different than that of the argument (0).

The indirect function argument is in alloca address space in LLVM IR. However,
during Clang codegen for C++, the address space of indirect function argument
should match its address space in the source code, i.e., default addr space, even
for indirect argument. This is because destructor of the indirect argument may
be called in the caller function, and address of the indirect argument may be
taken, in either case the indirect function argument is expected to be in default
addr space, not the alloca address space.
Therefore, the indirect function argument should be mapped to the temp var
casted to default address space. The caller will cast it to alloca addr space
when passing it to the callee. In the callee, the argument is also casted to the
default address space and used.
CallArg is refactored to facilitate this fix.

This is an improvement over always using byval for
structs.
This will use registers until ~16 are used, and then
switch back to byval. This needs more work, since I'm
not sure it ever really makes sense to use byval. If
the register limit is exceeded, the arguments still
end up passed on the stack, but with a different ABI.
It also may make sense to base this on number of
registers used for non-struct arguments, rather than
just arguments that appear first in the argument list.

Clang assumes coerced function argument is in address space 0, which is not always true and results in invalid bitcasts.
This patch fixes failure in OpenCL conformance test api/get_kernel_arg_info with amdgcn---amdgizcl triple, where non-zero alloca address space is used.
