As part of the migration to ptradd (https://discourse.llvm.org/t/rfc-replacing-getelementptr-with-ptradd/68699), we need to change the representation of the `inrange` attribute, which is used for vtable splitting. Currently, inrange is specified as follows: ``` getelementptr inbounds ({ [4 x ptr], [4 x ptr] }, ptr @vt, i64 0, inrange i32 1, i64 2) ``` The `inrange` is placed on a GEP index, and all accesses must be "in range" of that index. The new representation is as follows: ``` getelementptr inbounds inrange(-16, 16) ({ [4 x ptr], [4 x ptr] }, ptr @vt, i64 0, i32 1, i64 2) ``` This specifies which offsets are "in range" of the GEP result. The new representation will continue working when canonicalizing to ptradd representation: ``` getelementptr inbounds inrange(-16, 16) (i8, ptr @vt, i64 48) ``` The inrange offsets are relative to the return value of the GEP. An alternative design could make them relative to the source pointer instead. The result-relative format was chosen on the off-chance that we want to extend support to non-constant GEPs in the future, in which case this variant is more expressive. This implementation "upgrades" the old inrange representation in bitcode by simply dropping it. This is a very niche feature, and I don't think trying to upgrade it is worthwhile. Let me know if you disagree.
