Over the past day or so, i've took a large swing at our tests,
and reduced the number of tests that were still using the old syntax
from ~1800 to just 200.
Left to handle: (as it is seen in this patch)
* Transforms/LSR
* Transforms/CGP
* Transforms/TypePromotion
* Transforms/HardwareLoops
* Analysis/*
* some misc.
I think this is the right point to start actively refusing
to honor the old syntax, except for the old tests,
to prevent the old syntax from creeping back in.
Thus, let's add temporary default-off flag,
and if it is not passed refuse to accept old syntax.
The tests that still need porting are annotated with this flag.

Multiple metadata values for records such as opencl.ocl.version, llvm.ident
and similar are created after linking several modules. For some of them, notably
opencl.ocl.version, this creates semantic problem because we cannot tell which
version of OpenCL the composite module conforms.
Moreover, such repetitions of identical values often create a huge list of
unneeded metadata, which grows bitcode size both in memory and stored on disk.
It can go up to several Mb when linked against our OpenCL library. Lastly, such
long lists obscure reading of dumped IR.
The pass unifies metadata after linking.
