This patch makes the final major change of the RemoveDIs project, changing the
default IR output from debug intrinsics to debug records. This is expected to
break a large number of tests: every single one that tests for uses or
declarations of debug intrinsics and does not explicitly disable writing
records.
If this patch has broken your downstream tests (or upstream tests on a
configuration I wasn't able to run):
1. If you need to immediately unblock a build, pass
`--write-experimental-debuginfo=false` to LLVM's option processing for all
failing tests (remember to use `-mllvm` for clang/flang to forward arguments to
LLVM).
2. For most test failures, the changes are trivial and mechanical, enough that
they can be done by script; see the migration guide for a guide on how to do
this: https://llvm.org/docs/RemoveDIsDebugInfo.html#test-updates
3. If any tests fail for reasons other than FileCheck check lines that need
updating, such as assertion failures, that is most likely a real bug with this
patch and should be reported as such.

Debugify is extremely useful as a testing and debugging tool, and a good
number of LLVM-IR transform tests use it. We need it to support "new"
non-instruction debug-info to get test coverage, but it's not important
enough to completely convert right now (and it'd be a large
undertaking). Thus: convert to/from dbg.value/DPValue mode on entry and
exit of the pass, which gives us the functionality without any further
work. The cost is compile-time, but again this is only happening during
tests.
Tested by: the large set of debugify tests enabled here. Note the
InstCombine test (cast-mul-select.ll) that hasn't been fully enabled:
this is because there's a debug-info sinking piece of code there that
hasn't been instrumented.
basic.ll:test_lifetime_bitcast is a strange case. The comment says
it's trying to keep the lifetime intrinsics for bitcasts. Leave a
dummy bitcast for now to keep it happy.

to use the -passes syntax when specifying the pipeline.
Given that LLVM_ENABLE_NEW_PASS_MANAGER isn't set to off (which is
a deprecated feature) the updated test cases already used the new
pass manager, but they were using the legacy syntax when specifying
the passes to run. This patch can be seen as a step toward deprecating
that interface.
This patch also removes some redundant RUN lines. Here I am
referring to test cases that had multiple RUN lines verifying both
the legacy "-passname" syntax and the new "-passes=passname" syntax.
Since we switched the default pass manager to "new PM" both RUN lines
have verified the new PM version of the pass (more or less wasting
time running the same test twice), unless LLVM_ENABLE_NEW_PASS_MANAGER
is set to "off". It is assumed that it is enough to run these tests
with the new pass manager now.

Summary:
If the only use of a value is a start or end lifetime intrinsic then mark the intrinsic as trivially dead. This should allow for that value to then be removed as well.
Currently, this only works for allocas, globals, and arguments.
