This switches everything to use the memory attribute proposed in
https://discourse.llvm.org/t/rfc-unify-memory-effect-attributes/65579.
The old argmemonly, inaccessiblememonly and inaccessiblemem_or_argmemonly
attributes are dropped. The readnone, readonly and writeonly attributes
are restricted to parameters only.
The old attributes are auto-upgraded both in bitcode and IR.
The bitcode upgrade is a policy requirement that has to be retained
indefinitely. The IR upgrade is mainly there so it's not necessary
to update all tests using memory attributes in this patch, which
is already large enough. We could drop that part after migrating
tests, or retain it longer term, to make it easier to import IR
from older LLVM versions.
High-level Function/CallBase APIs like doesNotAccessMemory() or
setDoesNotAccessMemory() are mapped transparently to the memory
attribute. Code that directly manipulates attributes (e.g. via
AttributeList) on the other hand needs to switch to working with
the memory attribute instead.

Varargs and inalloca have a weird interaction where varargs are actually
passed via the inalloca alloca. Removing inalloca breaks the varargs
because they're still not passed as separate arguments.

Disallow this meaningless combination. Doing so simplifies analysis
of LLVM code w.r.t t DLL storage-class, and prevents mistakes with
DLL storage class.
- Change the assembler to reject DLL storage class on symbols with
local linkage.
- Change the bitcode reader to clear the DLL Storage class when the
linkage is local for auto-upgrading
- Update LangRef.
There is an existing restriction on non-default visibility and local
linkage which this is modelled on.

hasOnlyColdCalls skipped over calls to intrinsics, but it did so after
checking the linkage of the called function. This meant that the presence
of a call to a debug intrinsic could affect the outcome of the
optimization.
In my original reproducer (for an out of tree target) it was particularly
interesting, because the actual IR after GlobalOpt was not different with
debug instrinsics present, so -print-after-all printouts didn't show
anything there.
However, without debuginfo, GlobalOpt went further and ran
BlockFrequencyAnalysis and (more importanly) LoopAnalysis, and later on in
the pipeline, instcombine behaved in different ways when LoopInfo was
present.
So a call to a dbg.declare prevented running LoopAnalysis in
GlobalOpt, which later prevented InstCombine from doing an optimization.
The dbg-intrinsic-loopanalysis.ll testcase tries to expose this.
Then I also noted that adding a dbg.declare actually made the existing
testcase colccc_coldsites.ll generate different code, so I modified that
to now test it behaves the same way with and without the dbg.declare.

As my goal is to remove at least _some_ functions from the static list

had alternate cases which are no longer meaningful, e.g.
`malloc-load-removal.ll`.

D128820 stopped creating div/rem constant expressions by default;
this patch removes support for them entirely.
The getUDiv(), getExactUDiv(), getSDiv(), getExactSDiv(), getURem()
and getSRem() on ConstantExpr are removed, and ConstantExpr::get()
now only accepts binary operators for which
ConstantExpr::isSupportedBinOp() returns true. Uses of these methods
may be replaced either by corresponding IRBuilder methods, or
ConstantFoldBinaryOpOperands (if a constant result is required).
On the C API side, LLVMConstUDiv, LLVMConstExactUDiv, LLVMConstSDiv,
LLVMConstExactSDiv, LLVMConstURem and LLVMConstSRem are removed and
corresponding LLVMBuild methods should be used.
Importantly, this also means that constant expressions can no longer
trap! This patch still keeps the canTrap() method to minimize diff --
I plan to drop it in a separate NFC patch.

The global ctor evaluator currently handles by checking whether the
memset memory is already zero, and skips it in that case. However,
it only actually checks the first byte of the memory being set.
This patch extends the code to check all bytes being set. This is
done byte-by-byte to avoid converting undef values to zeros in
larger reads. However, the handling is still not completely correct,
because there might still be padding bytes (though probably this
doesn't matter much in practice, as I'd expect global variable
padding to be zero-initialized in practice).
Mostly fixes https://github.com/llvm/llvm-project/issues/55859.

If there are pre-existing dead instructions, the order we visit replaced
values can cause us sometimes to not delete dead instructions.
The added test non-deterministically failed without the change.
Previously all entries in global_ctors had to have the void()* type and
we'd skip evaluating bitcasted functions. With opaque pointers we may
see the function directly.

This was reusing a cast to GlobalVariable to check for an
Instruction, which means we'll try to dereference a null pointer
if it's not actually a GlobalVariable. We should be casting
MTI->getSource() instead.
I don't think this problem is really specific to opaque pointers,
but it certainly makes it a lot easier to reproduce.

Generalize D99629 for ELF. A default visibility non-local symbol is preemptible
in a -shared link. `isInterposable` is an insufficient condition.
Moreover, a non-preemptible alias may be referenced in a sub constant expression
which intends to lower to a PC-relative relocation. Replacing the alias with a
preemptible aliasee may introduce a linker error.
Respect dso_preemptable and suppress optimization to fix the abose issues. With
the change, `alias = 345` will not be rewritten to use aliasee in a `-fpic`
compile.
```
int aliasee;
extern int alias __attribute__((alias("aliasee"), visibility("hidden")));
void foo() { alias = 345; } // intended to access the local copy
```
While here, refine the condition for the alias as well.
For some binary formats like COFF, `isInterposable` is a sufficient condition.
But I think canonicalization for the changed case has little advantage, so I
don't bother to add the `Triple(M.getTargetTriple()).isOSBinFormatELF()` or
`getPICLevel/getPIELevel` complexity.
For instrumentations, it's recommended not to create aliases that refer to
globals that have a weak linkage or is preemptible. However, the following is
supported and the IR needs to handle such cases.
```
int aliasee __attribute__((weak));
extern int alias __attribute__((alias("aliasee")));
```
There are other places where GlobalAlias isInterposable usage may need to be
fixed.

We can generalize the malloc-to-global transform for other allocation functions which are both a) removable, and b) have a known initialization value.
One subtlety that I want to point out - mostly because I hadn't realized it was true until I took a closer look - is that the existing code doesn't prove that initialization/malloc happens only once. The initialization function can be called multiple times. This is correct without special handling for malloc as undef can map to any value previously written, but a non-undef initializing allocation it means we may end up memseting the new global repeatedly. In particular, this means it's not legal to fold the memset into the initializer of the global.

The malloc to global transform currently determines the type of the
global by looking at bitcasts of the malloc. This is limited (the
transform fails if there are multiple different types) and
incompatible with opaque pointers.
My initial approach was to construct an appropriate struct type
based on usage in loads/stores. What this patch does instead is
to always create an [i8 x AllocSize] global, without trying to
guess types at all.
This does mean that other transforms that require a certain global
type may break. I fixed two of these in D117034 and D117223, which
I believe should be sufficient to avoid regressions. In particular,
the global SRA change should end up splitting the global into
naturally-typed sub-globals, at which point all other optimizations
should work.

Currently global SRA uses the GEP structure to determine how to
split the global. This patch instead analyses the loads and stores
that are performed on the global, and collects which types are used
at which offset, and then splits the global according to those.
This is both more general, and works fine with opaque pointers.
This is also closer to how ordinary SROA is performed.

GlobalOpt can optimize a global with undef initializer and a single
store to put the stored value into the initializer instead. Currently,
this requires the type of the global and the store to match.
This patch extends support to cases with different types (but same
