When writing the bitcode serialization for the new debug info hierarchy,
I assumed two fields would never be null.
Drop that assumption, since it's brittle (and crashes the
`BitcodeWriter` if wrong), and is a check better left for the verifier
anyway. (No need for a bitcode upgrade here, since the new hierarchy is
still not in place.)
The fields in question are `MDCompileUnit::getFile()` and
`MDDerivedType::getBaseType()`, the latter of which isn't null in
test/Transforms/Mem2Reg/ConvertDebugInfo2.ll (see !14, a pointer to
nothing). While the testcase might have bitrotted, there's no reason
for the bitcode format to rely on non-null for metadata operands.
This also fixes a bug in `AsmWriter` where if the `file:` is null it
isn't emitted (caught by the double-round trip in the testcase I'm
adding) -- this is a required field in `LLParser`.
I'll circle back to ConvertDebugInfo2. Once the specialized nodes are
in place, I'll be trying to turn the debug info verifier back on by
default (in the newer module pass form committed r206300) and throwing
more logic in there. If the testcase has bitrotted (as opposed to me
not understanding the schema correctly) I'll fix it then.

Follow-up to r229740, which removed `DITemplate*::getContext()` after my
upgrade script revealed that scopes are always `nullptr` for template
parameters. This is the other shoe: drop `scope:` from
`MDTemplateParameter` and its two subclasses. (Note: a bitcode upgrade
would be pointless, since the hierarchy hasn't been moved into place.)

Add specialized debug info metadata nodes that match the `DIDescriptor`
wrappers (used by `DIBuilder`) closely. Assembly and bitcode support to
follow soon (it'll mostly just be obvious), but this sketches in today's
schema. This is the first big commit (well, the only *big* one aside
from the testcase changes that'll come when I move this into place) for
PR22464.
I've marked a bunch of obvious changes as `TODO`s in the source; I plan
to make those changes promptly after this hierarchy is moved underneath
`DIDescriptor`, but for now I'm aiming mostly to match the status quo.

Move debug-info-centred `Metadata` subclasses into their own
header/source file. A couple of private template functions are needed
from both `Metadata.cpp` and `DebugInfoMetadata.cpp`, so I've moved them
to `lib/IR/MetadataImpl.h`.
