We have had quite a few issues created around how Clang treats
intrinsics vs how MSVC treats intrinsics.
While I was writing this I also added some sections on behaviour changes
that caught me while porting my MSVC codebase to clang-cl.
Hopefully we can point issues around intrinsics to this doc and
hopefully it is useful to others who run into similar behaviour
differences.
The behaviour differences highlighted here are differences, as far as I
am aware, that we do not intend to change or fix for MSVC.
Our support for C++ EH is sufficiently good that it makes sense to
enable support for it out of the box.
While we are here, update the MSVCCompatibility doc.

- Fix the formatting of the "Exceptions and SEH" section.
- Make the "Complete" text for "Thread-safe initialization of local
statics" green.

The MSVC 2015 ABI utilizes a rather straightforward adaptation of the
algorithm found in the appendix of N2382. While we are here, implement
support for emitting cleanups if an exception is thrown while we are
intitializing a static local variable.

Rethrowing exceptions in the MS model is very simple: just call
_CxxThrowException with nullptr for both arguments.
N.B. They chose stdcall as the calling convention for x86 but cdecl for
all other platforms.

It hasn't been updated to reflect the progress we've made. We've fuzz
tested VFTables, VBTables, layout, and RTTI data. We support lambdas
that are compatible with their scheme.

This documents some of the status of supported functionality in MSVC
quirks mode. Some of this should be in
http://clang.llvm.org/compatibility.html instead when things have
stabilized.
