Qualifiers are located next to the TypeDescriptor in order to properly
ensure that a pointer type can only be caught by a more qualified catch
handler. This means that a catch handler of type 'const int *' requires
an RTTI object for 'int *'. We got this correct for 'throw' but not for
'catch'.
N.B. We don't currently have the means to store the qualifiers because
LLVM's EH strategy is tailored to the Itanium scheme. The Itanium ABI
stores qualifiers inside the type descriptor in such a way that the
manner of qualification is stored in addition to the pointee type's
descriptor. Perhaps the best way of modeling this for the MS ABI is
using an aggregate type to bundle the qualifiers with the descriptor?
This is tricky because we want to make it clear to the optimization
passes which catch handlers invalidate other handlers.
My current thoughts on a design for this is along the lines of:
{ { TypeDescriptor* TD, i32 QualifierFlags }, i32 MiscFlags }
The idea is that the inner most aggregate is all that is needed to
communicate that one catch handler might supercede another. The
'MiscFlags' field would be used to hold the bitpattern for the notion
that the 'catch' handler does not need to invoke a copy-constructor
because we are catching by reference.

Classes can be defined in multiple translation units. This means that
the static constexpr data members should have identical initializers in
all translation units. Implement this by giving the reference temporary
linkonce_odr linkage.

Summary:
This is especially important for targets that use multiple address spaces,
and commonly place global variables in address spaces other than zero.

Currently we emit DeferredDeclsToEmit in reverse order. This patch changes that.
The advantages of the change are that
* The output order is a bit closer to the source order. The change to
test/CodeGenCXX/pod-member-memcpys.cpp is a good example.
* If we decide to deffer more, it will not cause as large changes in the
estcases as it would without this patch.

This produces comdats for vtables, typeinfo, typeinfo names, and vtts.
When combined with llvm not producing implicit comdats, not doing this would
cause code bloat on ELF and link errors on COFF.

Sorry for the noise, I managed to miss a bunch of recent regressions of
include orderings here. This should actually sort all the includes for
Clang. Again, no functionality changed, this is just a mechanical
cleanup that I try to run periodically to keep the #include lines as
regular as possible across the project.

The llvm IR until recently had no support for comdats. This was a problem when
targeting C++ on ELF/COFF as just using weak linkage would cause quite a bit of
dead bits to remain on the executable (unless -ffunction-sections,
-fdata-sections and --gc-sections were used).
To fix the problem, llvm's codegen will just assume that any weak or linkonce
that is not in an explicit comdat should be output in one with the same name as
the global.
This unfortunately breaks cases like pr19848 where a weak symbol is not
xpected to be part of any comdat.
Now that we have explicit comdats in the IR, we can finally get both cases
right.
This first patch just makes clang give explicit comdats to GlobalValues where
t is allowed to.
A followup patch to llvm will then stop implicitly producing comdats.

Their linkage can change if they are later explicitly instantiated. We would
previously emit such functions eagerly (as opposed to lazily on first use) if
they have a 'dllexport' or 'used' attribute, and fail an assert when hitting the
explicit instantiation.
This is achieved by replacing the old CodeGenModule::MayDeferGeneration() method
with two new ones: MustBeEmitted() and MayBeEmittedEagerly().

having OptimizeNone remove them again, just don't add them in the
first place if the function already has OptimizeNone.
Note that MinSize can still appear due to attributes on different
declarations; a future patch will address that.
