This patch reverses the edge from DIGlobalVariable to GlobalVariable.
This will allow us to more easily preserve debug info metadata when
manipulating global variables.
Fixes PR30362. A program for upgrading test cases is attached to that
bug.

Currently each Function points to a DISubprogram and DISubprogram has a
scope field. For member functions the scope is a DICompositeType. DIScopes
point to the DICompileUnit to facilitate type uniquing.
Distinct DISubprograms (with isDefinition: true) are not part of the type
hierarchy and cannot be uniqued. This change removes the subprograms
list from DICompileUnit and instead adds a pointer to the owning compile
unit to distinct DISubprograms. This would make it easy for ThinLTO to
strip unneeded DISubprograms and their transitively referenced debug info.
Motivation
----------
Materializing DISubprograms is currently the most expensive operation when
doing a ThinLTO build of clang.
We want the DISubprogram to be stored in a separate Bitcode block (or the
same block as the function body) so we can avoid having to expensively
deserialize all DISubprograms together with the global metadata. If a
function has been inlined into another subprogram we need to store a
reference the block containing the inlined subprogram.
Attached to https://llvm.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=27284 is a python script
that updates LLVM IR testcases to the new format.

Summary: SampleProfile pass needs to be performed after InstructionCombiningPass, which helps eliminate un-inlinable function calls.

The existing coverage tracker counts the number of records that were used
from the input profile. An alternative view of coverage is to check how
many available samples were applied.
This way, if the profile contains several records with few samples, it
doesn't really matter much that they were not applied. The more
interesting records to apply are the ones that contribute many samples.

If a function was originally inlined but not actually hot at runtime,
its samples will not be counted inside the parent function. This throws
off the coverage calculation because it expects to find more used
records than it should.
Fixed by ignoring functions that will not be inlined into the parent.
Currently, this is inlined functions with 0 samples. In subsequent
patches, I'll change this to mean "cold" functions.
