MaterializeTemporaryExpr captures a reference binding to a temporary
value, making explicit that the temporary value (a prvalue) needs to
be materialized into memory so that its address can be used. The
intended AST invariant here is that a reference will always bind to a
glvalue, and MaterializeTemporaryExpr will be used to convert prvalues
into glvalues for that binding to happen. For example, given
const int& r = 1.0;
The initializer of "r" will be a MaterializeTemporaryExpr whose
subexpression is an implicit conversion from the double literal "1.0"
to an integer value.
IR generation benefits most from this new node, since it was
previously guessing (badly) when to materialize temporaries for the
purposes of reference binding. There are likely more refactoring and
cleanups we could perform there, but the introduction of
MaterializeTemporaryExpr fixes PR9565, a case where IR generation
would effectively bind a const reference directly to a bitfield in a
struct. Addresses <rdar://problem/9552231>.

Language-design credit goes to a lot of people, but I particularly want
to single out Blaine Garst and Patrick Beard for their contributions.
Compiler implementation credit goes to Argyrios, Doug, Fariborz, and myself,
in no particular order.

Type::isUnsignedIntegerOrEnumerationType(), which are like
Type::isSignedIntegerType() and Type::isUnsignedIntegerType() but also
consider the underlying type of a C++0x scoped enumeration type.
Audited all callers to the existing functions, switching those that
need to also handle scoped enumeration types (e.g., those that deal
with constant values) over to the new functions. Fixes PR9923 /
<rdar://problem/9447851>.

for __unknown_anytype resolution to destructively modify the AST. So that's
what it does now, which significantly simplifies some of the implementation.
Normal member calls work pretty cleanly now, and I added support for
propagating unknown-ness through &.

represents a dynamic cast where we know that the result is always null.
For example:
struct A {
virtual ~A();
};
struct B final : A { };
struct C { };
bool f(B* b) {
return dynamic_cast<C*>(b);
}

The idea is that you can create a VarDecl with an unknown type, or a
FunctionDecl with an unknown return type, and it will still be valid to
access that object as long as you explicitly cast it at every use. I'm
still going back and forth about how I want to test this effectively, but
I wanted to go ahead and provide a skeletal implementation for the LLDB
folks' benefit and because it also improves some diagnostic goodness for
placeholder expressions.

the array alignment to the array access.
- This is more or less the best we can do without having alignment present in
the type system, but is a long way from truly matching how GCC handles this.

add support for the OpenCL __private, __local, __constant and
__global address spaces, as well as the __read_only, _read_write and
__write_only image access specifiers. Patch originally by ARM;
language-specific address space support by myself.
