Currently, `__constant__` variables do not get unconditionally marked as
`constant` in IR, which seems a bit odd given their definition. This is
generally inconsequential for NVPTX/AMDGPU, since said variables get
emitted in the constant address space for those BEs. However, it is
potentially significant for e.g. HIP-on-SPIR-V cases, as SPIR-V does not
allow casts to/from the constant AS (`UniformConstant`), which forces
`__constant__` variables to be emitted in the global AS, thus making IR
constness meaningful.
This change seeks to add support for vendor flavoured SPIRV - more
specifically, AMDGCN flavoured SPIRV. The aim is to generate SPIRV that
carries some extra bits of information that are only usable by AMDGCN
targets, forfeiting absolute genericity to obtain greater expressiveness
for target features:
- AMDGCN inline ASM is allowed/supported, under the assumption that the
[SPV_INTEL_inline_assembly](https://github.com/intel/llvm/blob/sycl/sycl/doc/design/spirv-extensions/SPV_INTEL_inline_assembly.asciidoc)
extension is enabled/used
- AMDGCN target specific builtins are allowed/supported, under the
assumption that e.g. the `--spirv-allow-unknown-intrinsics` option is
enabled when using the downstream translator
- the featureset matches the union of AMDGCN targets' features
- the datalayout string is overspecified to affix both the program
address space and the alloca address space, the latter under the
assumption that the
[SPV_INTEL_function_pointers](https://github.com/intel/llvm/blob/sycl/sycl/doc/design/spirv-extensions/SPV_INTEL_function_pointers.asciidoc)
extension is enabled/used, case in which the extant SPIRV datalayout
string would lead to pointers to function pointing to the private
address space, which would be wrong.
Existing AMDGCN tests are extended to cover this new target. It is
currently dormant / will require some additional changes, but I thought
I'd rather put it up for review to get feedback as early as possible. I
will note that an alternative option is to place this under AMDGPU, but
that seems slightly less natural, since this is still SPIRV, albeit
relaxed in terms of preconditions & constrained in terms of
postconditions, and only guaranteed to be usable on AMDGCN targets (it
is still possible to obtain pristine portable SPIRV through usage of the
flavoured target, though).
This adds -no-opaque-pointers to clang tests whose output will
change when opaque pointers are enabled by default. This is
intended to be part of the migration approach described in
https://discourse.llvm.org/t/enabling-opaque-pointers-by-default/61322/9.
The patch has been produced by replacing %clang_cc1 with
%clang_cc1 -no-opaque-pointers for tests that fail with opaque
pointers enabled. Worth noting that this doesn't cover all tests,
there's a remaining ~40 tests not using %clang_cc1 that will need
a followup change.

This issue is an oversight in D108621.
Literals in HIP are emitted as global constant variables with default
address space which maps to Generic address space for HIPSPV. In
SPIR-V such variables translate to OpVariable instructions with
Generic storage class which are not legal. Fix by mapping literals
to CrossWorkGroup address space.
The literals are not mapped to UniformConstant because the “flat”
pointers in HIP may reference them and “flat” pointers are modeled
as Generic pointers in SPIR-V. In SPIR-V/OpenCL UniformConstant
pointers may not be casted to Generic.

Turning on `enable_noundef_analysis` flag allows better codegen by removing freeze instructions.
I modified clang by renaming `enable_noundef_analysis` flag to `disable-noundef-analysis` and turning it off by default.

Add mapping for CUDA address spaces for HIP to SPIR-V
translation. This change allows HIP device code to be
emitted as valid SPIR-V by mapping unqualified pointers
to generic address space and by mapping __device__ and
__shared__ AS to their equivalent AS in SPIR-V
(CrossWorkgroup and Workgroup, respectively).
Cuda's __constant__ AS is handled specially. In HIP
unqualified pointers (aka "flat" pointers) can point to
__constant__ objects. Mapping this AS to ConstantMemory
would produce to illegal address space casts to
generic AS. Therefore, __constant__ AS is mapped to
CrossWorkgroup.
