Jeremy Morse a1a4f5f12c [DebugInfo][Docs] Document that prologue/epilogue variable location changes are ignored ...

This patch documents that LLVM does not describe all changes in variable
locations during the prologue and the epilogue. The debugger doesn't /
shouldn't step through that portion of the function anyway, and describing
every location through such stages would bloat location lists.

Perform some minor cleanup at the same time,
 * Fix an enumerated list
 * Document that dbg.declare intrinsics have their variable location recorded
   in a MachineFunction table, not with DBG_VALUE meta-insts
 * Adds frame-indexes to the list of things that can be operands to
   DBG_VALUEs.
