[Clang] Allow "ext_vector_type" applied to Booleans

This is the `ext_vector_type` alternative to D81083.

This patch extends Clang to allow 'bool' as a valid vector element type
(attribute ext_vector_type) in C/C++.

This is intended as the canonical type for SIMD masks and facilitates
clean vector intrinsic declarations. Vectors of i1 are supported on IR
level and below down to many SIMD ISAs, such as AVX512, ARM SVE (fixed
vector length) and the VE target (NEC SX-Aurora TSUBASA).

[clang] Properly cache member pointer LLVM types

When not going through the main Clang->LLVM type cache, we'd
accidentally create multiple different opaque types for a member pointer
type.

This allows us to remove the -verify-type-cache flag now that
check-clang passes with it on. We can do the verification in expensive
builds. Previously microsoft-abi-member-pointers.cpp was failing with
-verify-type-cache.

I suspect that there may be more issues when we have multiple member
pointer types and we clear the cache, but we can leave that for later.

Followup to D118744.

[clang] Fix some clang->llvm type cache invalidation issues

Take the following as an example

struct z {
z (*p)();
};

z f();

When we attempt to get the LLVM type of f, we recurse into z.

[clang] Fix some clang->llvm type cache invalidation issues

Take the following as an example

struct z {
z (*p)();
};

z f();

When we attempt to get the LLVM type of f, we recurse into z. z itself
has a function pointer with the same type as f. Given the recursion,
Clang simply treats z::p as a pointer to an empty struct `{}*`. The
LLVM type of f is as expected. So we have two different potential
LLVM types for a given Clang type. If we store one of those into the
cache, when we access the cache with a different context (e.g. we
are/aren't recursing on z) we may get an incorrect result. There is some
attempt to clear the cache in these cases, but it doesn't seem to handle
all cases.

This change makes it so we only use the cache when we are not in any
sort of function context, i.e. `noRecordsBeingLaidOut() &&
FunctionsBeingProcessed.empty()`, which are the cases where we may
decide to choose a different LLVM type for a given Clang type. LLVM
types for builtin types are never recursive so they're always ok.

This allows us to clear the type cache less often (as seen with the
removal of one of the calls to `TypeCache.clear()`). We
still need to clear it when we use a placeholder type then replace it
later with the final type and other dependent types need to be
recalculated.

I've added a check that the cached type matches what we compute. It
triggered in this test case without the fix. It's currently not
check-clang clean so it's not on by default for something like expensive
checks builds.

This change uncovered another issue where the LLVM types for an argument
and its local temporary don't match. For example in type-cache-3, when
expanding z::dc's argument into a temporary alloca, we ConvertType() the
type of z::p which is `void ({}*)*`, which doesn't match the alloca GEP
type of `{}*`.

No noticeable compile time changes:

Introduce _BitInt, deprecate _ExtInt

WG14 adopted the _ExtInt feature from Clang for C23, but renamed the
type to be _BitInt. This patch does the vast majority of the work to
rename _ExtInt to _BitInt, which accounts for most of its size. The new
type is exposed in older C modes and all C++ modes as a conforming
extension. However, there are functional changes worth calling out:

* Deprecates _ExtInt with a fix-it to help users migrate to _BitInt.
* Updates the mangling for the type.
* Updates the documentation and adds a release note to warn users what
is going on.
* Adds new diagnostics for use of _BitInt to call out when it's used as
a Clang extension or as a pre-C23 compatibility concern.
* Adds new tests for the new diagnostic behaviors.

I want to call out the ABI break specifically. We do not believe that
this break will cause a significant imposition for early adopters of
the feature, and so this is being done as a full break. If it turns out
there are critical uses where recompilation is not an option for some
reason, we can consider using ABI tags to ease the transition.

[Clang] Add __ibm128 type to represent ppc_fp128

Currently, we have no front-end type for ppc_fp128 type in IR. PowerPC
target generates ppc_fp128 type from long double now, but there's option
(-mabi=(ieee|ibm)longdouble) to control it and we're going to do
transition from IBM extended double-double ppc_fp128 to IEEE fp128 in
the future.

This patch adds type __ibm128 which always represents ppc_fp128 in IR,
as what GCC did for that type. Without this type in Clang, compilation
will fail if compiling against future version of libstdcxx (which uses
__ibm128 in headers).

Although all operations in backend for __ibm128 is done by software,
only PowerPC enables support for it.

There's something not implemented in this commit, which can be done in
future ones:

- Literal suffix for __ibm128 type. w/W is suitable as GCC documented.
- __attribute__((mode(IF))) should be for __ibm128.
- Complex __ibm128 type.

types of the form <vscale x 1 x i64>(LMUL=1 element size=64) or
<vscale x 4 x i32>(LMUL=2 element size=32), etc. The vector_size
attribute does not work for us as it doesn't create a scalable
vector type. We want these types to be opaque and have no operators
defined for them. We want them to be sizeless. This makes them
similar to the ARM SVE builtin types. But we will have quite a bit
more types. This patch adds around 60. Later patches will add
another 230 or so types representing tuples of these types similar
to the x2/x3/x4 types in ARM SVE. But with extra complexity that
these types are combined with the LMUL concept that is unique to
RISCV.

The bfloat type, and its properties are specified in the Arm Architecture
Reference Manual:

In detail this patch:
- introduces an opaque, storage-only C-type __bf16, which introduces a new bfloat IR type.

This is part of a patch series, starting with command-line and Bfloat16
assembly support. The subsequent patches will upstream intrinsics
support for BFloat16, followed by Matrix Multiplication and the
remaining Virtualization features of the armv8.6-a architecture.

values are lowered to memory operations on 1-D IR arrays. After loading,
the loaded values are cast to a vector. This ensures matrix values use

Implement _ExtInt as an extended int type specifier.

Introduction/Motivation:
LLVM-IR supports integers of non-power-of-2 bitwidth, in the iN syntax.
Integers of non-power-of-two aren't particularly interesting or useful
on most hardware, so much so that no language in Clang has been
motivated to expose it before.

However, in the case of FPGA hardware normal integer types where the
full bitwidth isn't used, is extremely wasteful and has severe
performance/space concerns. Because of this, Intel has introduced this
functionality in the High Level Synthesis compiler[0]
under the name "Arbitrary Precision Integer" (ap_int for short). This
has been extremely useful and effective for our users, permitting them
to optimize their storage and operation space on an architecture where
both can be extremely expensive.

We are proposing upstreaming a more palatable version of this to the
community, in the form of this proposal and accompanying patch. We are
proposing the syntax _ExtInt(N). We intend to propose this to the WG14
committee[1], and the underscore-capital seems like the active direction
for a WG14 paper's acceptance. An alternative that Richard Smith
suggested on the initial review was __int(N), however we believe that
is much less acceptable by WG14. We considered _Int, however _Int is
used as an identifier in libstdc++ and there is no good way to fall
back to an identifier (since _Int(5) is indistinguishable from an
unnamed initializer of a template type named _Int).
