Make the corresponding change that was made for byval in
b7141207a483d39b99c2b4da4eb3bb591eca9e1a. Like byval, this requires a
bulk update of the test IR tests to include the type before this can
be mandatory.
If we're going to assume references are dereferenceable, we should also
assume they're aligned: otherwise, we can't actually dereference them.

C structs.
This comes up when we have a function that takes a struct and is defined in a
C++ file and used in a C file.
Before this commit, we will generate byval for C++ and will expand the struct
for C, thus causing difference at IR level. We will use bitcast of function type
at the callsite, which causes the inliner to not inline the function.
This commit changes how we handle small C like structs at IR level, but at
backend, we should generate the same argument passing before and after the
commit.
Note that the condition for expanding is still over conservative. We should be
able to expand type that is spelled with “class” and types that are not C-like.
But this commit fixes the inconsistent argument passing between C/C++.

The extension has the following syntax:
__builtin_call_with_static_chain(Call, Chain)
where Call must be a function call expression and Chain must be of pointer type
This extension performs a function call Call with a static chain pointer
Chain passed to the callee in a designated register. This is useful for
calling foreign language functions whose ABI uses static chain pointers
(e.g. to implement closures).
