Unlike coercing from reference to unsafe pointer, coercing between two
unsafe pointers doesn't need an AutoDerefRef, because there is no region
that regionck would need to know about.
In unoptimized libcore, this reduces the number of "auto_deref" allocas
from 174 to 4.

This commit updates the LLVM submodule in use to the current HEAD of the LLVM
repository. This is primarily being done to start picking up unwinding support
for MSVC, which is currently unimplemented in the revision of LLVM we are using.
Along the way a few changes had to be made:
* As usual, lots of C++ debuginfo bindings in LLVM changed, so there were some
significant changes to our RustWrapper.cpp
* As usual, some pass management changed in LLVM, so clang was re-scrutinized to
ensure that we're doing the same thing as clang.
* Some optimization options are now passed directly into the
`PassManagerBuilder` instead of through CLI switches to LLVM.
* The `NoFramePointerElim` option was removed from LLVM, favoring instead the
`no-frame-pointer-elim` function attribute instead.
Additionally, LLVM has picked up some new optimizations which required fixing an
existing soundness hole in the IR we generate. It appears that the current LLVM
we use does not expose this hole. When an enum is moved, the previous slot in
memory is overwritten with a bit pattern corresponding to "dropped". When the
drop glue for this slot is run, however, the switch on the discriminant can
often start executing the `unreachable` block of the switch due to the
discriminant now being outside the normal range. This was patched over locally
for now by having the `unreachable` block just change to a `ret void`.

The current codegen tests only compare IR line counts between similar
rust and C programs, the latter getting compiled with clang. That looked
like a good idea back then, but actually things like lifetime intrinsics
mean that less IR isn't always better, so the metric isn't really
helpful.
Instead, we can start doing tests that check specific aspects of the
generated IR, like attributes or metadata. To do that, we can use LLVM's
FileCheck tool which has a number of useful features for such tests.
To start off, I created some tests for a few things that were recently
added and/or broken.

Now that support has been removed, all lingering use cases are renamed.

This breaks code like:
struct Foo {
...
}
pub fn make_foo() -> Foo {
...
}
Change this code to:
pub struct Foo { // note `pub`
...
}
pub fn make_foo() -> Foo {
...
}
The `visible_private_types` lint has been removed, since it is now an
error to attempt to expose a private type in a public API. In its place
a `#[feature(visible_private_types)]` gate has been added.
Closes #16463.
RFC #48.

Otherwise the test function is internalized and LLVM will most likely optimize
it out.

When there is only a single store to the ret slot that dominates the
load that gets the value for the "ret" instruction, we can elide the
ret slot and directly return the operand of the dominating store
instruction. This is the same thing that clang does, except for a
special case that doesn't seem to affect us.
Fixes #8238
