Summary:
This adds support for embedding bitcode in a binary during LTO. The libLTO gains supports the `-lto-embed-bitcode` flag. The option allows users of the LTO library to embed a bitcode section. For example, LLD can pass the option via `ld.lld -mllvm=-lto-embed-bitcode`.
This feature allows doing something comparable to `clang -c -fembed-bitcode`, but on the (LTO) linker level. Having bitcode alongside native code has many use-cases. To give an example, the MacOS linker can create a `-bitcode_bundle` section containing bitcode. Also, having this feature built into LLVM is an alternative to 3rd party tools such as [[ https://github.com/travitch/whole-program-llvm | wllvm ]] or [[ https://github.com/SRI-CSL/gllvm | gllvm ]]. As with these tools, this feature simplifies creating "whole-program" llvm bitcode files, but in contrast to wllvm/gllvm it does not rely on a specific llvm frontend/driver.

Summary:
This patch redefines freeze instruction from being UnaryOperator to a subclass of UnaryInstruction.
ConstantExpr freeze is removed, as discussed in the previous review.
FreezeOperator is not added because there's no ConstantExpr freeze.
`freeze i8* null` test is added to `test/Bindings/llvm-c/freeze.ll` as well, because the null pointer-related bug in `tools/llvm-c/echo.cpp` is now fixed.
InstVisitor has visitFreeze now because freeze is not unaryop anymore.

Summary: A user can force a function to be inlined by specifying the always_inline attribute. Currently, thinlto implementation is not aware of always_inline functions and does not guarantee import of such functions, which in turn can prevent inlining of such functions.

The changes here are based on the corresponding diffs for allowing FMF on 'select':
D61917 <https://reviews.llvm.org/D61917>
As discussed there, we want to have fast-math-flags be a property of an FP value
because the alternative (having them on things like fcmp) leads to logical
inconsistency such as:
https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=38086
The earlier patch for select made almost no practical difference because most
unoptimized conditional code begins life as a phi (based on what I see in clang).
Similarly, I don't expect this patch to do much on its own either because
SimplifyCFG promptly drops the flags when converting to select on a minimal
example like:
https://bugs.llvm.org/show_bug.cgi?id=39535
But once we have this plumbing in place, we should be able to wire up the FMF
propagation and start solving cases like that.
The change to RecurrenceDescriptor::AddReductionVar() is required to prevent a
regression in a LoopVectorize test. We are intersecting the FMF of any
FPMathOperator there, so if a phi is not properly annotated, new math
instructions may not be either. Once we fix the propagation in SimplifyCFG, it
may be safe to remove that hack.

Add "memtag" sanitizer that detects and mitigates stack memory issues
using armv8.5 Memory Tagging Extension.
It is similar in principle to HWASan, which is a software implementation
of the same idea, but there are enough differencies to warrant a new
sanitizer type IMHO. It is also expected to have very different
performance properties.
The new sanitizer does not have a runtime library (it may grow one
later, along with a "debugging" mode). Similar to SafeStack and
StackProtector, the instrumentation pass (in a follow up change) will be
inserted in all cases, but will only affect functions marked with the
new sanitize_memtag attribute.

Summary: We emit CFI_FUNCTION_DEFS and CFI_FUNCTION_DECLS to
distributed ThinLTO indices to implement indirect function call
checking. This change causes us to only emit entries for functions
that are either defined or used by the module we're writing the index
for (instead of all functions in the combined index), which can make
the indices substantially smaller.
Fixes PR42378.

Reintroduces the scalable vector IR type from D32530, after it was reverted
a couple of times due to increasing chromium LTO build times. This latest
incarnation removes the walk over aggregate types from the verifier entirely,
in favor of rejecting scalable vectors in the isValidElementType methods in
ArrayType and StructType. This removes the 70% degradation observed with
the second repro tarball from PR42210.

It's possible that some function can load and store the same
variable using the same constant expression:
store %Derived* @foo, %Derived** bitcast (%Base** @bar to %Derived**)
%42 = load %Derived*, %Derived** bitcast (%Base** @bar to %Derived**)
The bitcast expression was mistakenly cached while processing loads,
and never examined later when processing store. This caused @bar to
be mistakenly treated as read-only variable. See load-store-caching.ll.

This reverts r365040 (git commit 5cacb91475)

This moves Bitcode/Bitstream*, Bitcode/BitCodes.h to Bitstream/.
This is needed to avoid a circular dependency when using the bitstream
code for parsing optimization remarks.
Since Bitcode uses Core for the IR part:
libLLVMRemarks -> Bitcode -> Core
and Core uses libLLVMRemarks to generate remarks (see
IR/RemarkStreamer.cpp):
Core -> libLLVMRemarks
we need to separate the Bitstream and Bitcode part.
For clang-doc, it seems that it doesn't need the whole bitcode layer, so
I updated the CMake to only use the bitstream part.

Summary:
If LTOUnit splitting is disabled, the module summary analysis computes
the summary information necessary to perform single implementation
devirtualization during the thin link with the index and no IR. The
information collected from the regular LTO IR in the current hybrid WPD
algorithm is summarized, including:
1) For vtable definitions, record the function pointers and their offset
within the vtable initializer (subsumes the information collected from
IR by tryFindVirtualCallTargets).
2) A record for each type metadata summarizing the vtable definitions
decorated with that metadata (subsumes the TypeIdentiferMap collected
from IR).
Also added are the necessary bitcode records, and the corresponding
assembly support.
The follow-on index-based WPD patch is D55153.
Depends on D53890.
