Antonio Frighetto 9e0c06d708 [clang][CodeGen] Set dead_on_return when passing arguments indirectly
Let Clang emit `dead_on_return` attribute on pointer arguments
that are passed indirectly, namely, large aggregates that the
ABI mandates be passed by value; thus, the parameter is destroyed
within the callee. Writes to such arguments are not observable by
the caller after the callee returns.

This should desirably enable further MemCpyOpt/DSE optimizations.
