getMDKindID/getMDKindNames methods to LLVMContext (and add
convenience methods to Module), eliminating MetadataContext.
Move the state that it maintains out to LLVMContext.

round trip blockaddress through .ll and .bc files, so add a testcase.
There are still a bunch of places in the optimizer and other places
that need to be updated to work with these constructs, but at least
the basics are in now.

state out of the BitstreamReader class into a BitstreamCursor class.
Doing this allows the client to have multiple cursors into the same
file, each with potentially different live block stacks and
abbreviation records.

- return attributes - inreg, zext and sext
- parameter attributes
- function attributes - nounwind, readonly, readnone, noreturn
Return attributes use 0 as the index.
Function attributes use ~0U as the index.
This patch requires corresponding changes in llvm-gcc and clang.

This sets the stage
- to implement function notes as function attributes and
- to distinguish between function attributes and return value attributes.
This requires corresponding changes in llvm-gcc and clang.

1. There is now a "PAListPtr" class, which is a smart pointer around
the underlying uniqued parameter attribute list object, and manages
its refcount. It is now impossible to mess up the refcount.
2. PAListPtr is now the main interface to the underlying object, and
the underlying object is now completely opaque.
3. Implementation details like SmallVector and FoldingSet are now no
longer part of the interface.
4. You can create a PAListPtr with an arbitrary sequence of
ParamAttrsWithIndex's, no need to make a SmallVector of a specific
size (you can just use an array or scalar or vector if you wish).
5. All the client code that had to check for a null pointer before
dereferencing the pointer is simplified to just access the
PAListPtr directly.
6. The interfaces for adding attrs to a list and removing them is a
bit simpler.
Phase #2 will rename some stuff (e.g. PAListPtr) and do other less
invasive changes.
