This patch extends TypeQuery matching to support anonymous namespaces. A
new flag is added to control the behavior. In the "strict" mode, the
query must match the type exactly -- all anonymous namespaces included.
The dynamic type resolver in the itanium abi (the motivating use case
for this) uses this flag, as it queries using the name from the
demangles, which includes anonymous namespaces.
This ensures we don't confuse a type with a same-named type in an
anonymous namespace. However, this does *not* ensure we don't confuse
two types in anonymous namespacs (in different CUs). To resolve this, we
would need to use a completely different lookup algorithm, which
probably also requires a DWARF extension.
In the "lax" mode (the default), the anonymous namespaces in the query
are optional, and this allows one search for the type using the usual
language rules (`::A` matches `::(anonymous namespace)::A`).
This patch also changes the type context computation algorithm in
DWARFDIE, so that it includes anonymous namespace information. This
causes a slight change in behavior: the algorithm previously stopped
computing the context after encountering an anonymous namespace, which
caused the outer namespaces to be ignored. This meant that a type like
`NS::(anonymous namespace)::A` would be (incorrectly) recognized as
`::A`). This can cause code depending on the old behavior to misbehave.
The fix is to specify all the enclosing namespaces in the query, or use
a non-exact match.
Our dwarf parsing code treats structures and classes as interchangable.
CompilerContextKind is used when looking DIEs for types. This makes sure
we always they're treated the same way.

…ARFDIE
This puts them closer to the other two functions doing something very
similar. I've tried to stick to the original logic of the functions as
much as possible, though I did apply some easy simplifications.
The changes in DWARFDeclContext.h are there to make the unit tests
produce more useful error messages.
The function that calculated the declaration context for a DIE was incorrectly transparently traversing acrosss DW_TAG_subprogram dies when climbing the parent DIE chain. This meant that types defined in functions would appear to have the declaration context of anything above the function. I fixed the GetTypeLookupContextImpl(...) function in DWARFDIE.cpp to not transparently skip over functions, lexical blocks and inlined functions and compile and type units. Added a test to verify things are working.
After a bug (the bug is that the functions don't handle DW_AT_signature,
aka type units) led me to one of these similar-but-different functions,
I started to realize that most of the differences between these two
functions are actually bugs.
As a first step towards merging them, this patch rewrites both of them
to follow the same pattern, while preserving all of their differences.
The main change is that GetTypeLookupContext now also uses a `seen` list
to avoid reference loops (currently that's not necessary because the
function strictly follows parent links, but that will change with
DW_AT_signatures).
I've also optimized both functions to avoid recursion by starting contruction
with the deepest scope first (and then reversing it).
DWARFDebugInfo only knows how to resolve references in its own file, but
in split dwarf, the index entries will refer to DIEs in the separate
(DWO) file. To resolve the DIERef correctly we'd either need to go
through the SymbolFileDWARF to get the full logic for resolving a
DIERef, or use the fact that ToDIERef already looks up the correct unit
while computing its result.
This patch does the latter.
This bug manifested itself in not being able to find type definitions
for types in namespaces, so I've modified one of our type resolving test
cases to run with debug_names, and added a namespaced class into it (it
originally contained only a top-level class).
This patch adds the ability to get a DWARFDIE's children as an LLVM range.
This way we can use for range loops to iterate over them and we can use LLVM's
algorithms like `llvm::all_of` to query all children.
The implementation has to do some small shenanigans as the iterator needs to
store a DWARFDIE, but a DWARFDIE container is also a DWARFDIE so it can't return
the iterator by value. I just made the `children` getter a templated function to
avoid the cyclic dependency.
