llvm: updated to 5.0.0

5.0.0:
Non-comprehensive list of changes in this release
* LLVM’s WeakVH has been renamed to WeakTrackingVH and a new WeakVH has been \ 
introduced. The new WeakVH nulls itself out on deletion, but does not track \ 
values across RAUW.
* A new library named BinaryFormat has been created which holds a collection of \ 
code which previously lived in Support. This includes the file_magic structure \ 
and identify_magic functions, as well as all the structure and type definitions \ 
for DWARF, ELF, COFF, WASM, and MachO file formats.
* The tool llvm-pdbdump has been renamed llvm-pdbutil to better reflect its \ 
nature as a general purpose PDB manipulation / diagnostics tool that does more \ 
than just dumping contents.
* The BBVectorize pass has been removed. It was fully replaced and no longer \ 
used back in 2014 but we didn’t get around to removing it. Now it is gone. The \ 
SLP vectorizer is the suggested non-loop vectorization pass.
* A new tool opt-viewer.py has been added to visualize optimization remarks in \ 
HTML. The tool processes the YAML files produced by clang with the \ 
-fsave-optimization-record option.
* A new CMake macro LLVM_REVERSE_ITERATION has been added. If enabled, all \ 
supported unordered LLVM containers would be iterated in reverse order. This is \ 
useful for uncovering non-determinism caused by iteration of unordered \ 
containers. Currently, it supports reverse iteration of SmallPtrSet and \ 
DenseMap.
* A new tool llvm-dlltool has been added to create short import libraries from \ 
GNU style definition files. The tool utilizes the PE COFF SPEC Import Library \ 
Format and PE COFF Auxiliary Weak Externals Format to achieve compatibility with \ 
LLD and MSVC LINK.

Log message:
libLLVM: update to 4.0.1, a bugfix release.

Log message:
Use public SHLIB_TYPE instead of private _OPSYS_SHLIB_TYPE.

Log message:
Add a terminfo option and enable by default (and correctly pull terminfo in)
if terminfo is builtin, otherwise leave it as a user option to avoid possible
dependency issues.

Log message:
Update buildlink3.mk with reality in LLVM projects

Log message:
Convert CXXFLAGS setting C++ standard to USE_LANGUAGES.

Log message:
libLLVM: respect LDFLAGS

from Dr. Thomas Orgis via tech-pkg

Log message:
libLLVM: use ln -sf, not ln -s. helps rebuilds, as the previous link
already exists

Log message:
Link llvm-lto2 and the other tools dynamically against libLLVM to avoid
the size penalty. The primary intention of this package is to provide a
standalone library for other consumers of LLVM and the size difference
doesn't justify the small performance penalty. Bump revision.

Log message:
LLVM 4.0.0:
The minimum compiler version required for building LLVM has been raised to 4.8 \ 
for GCC and 2015 for Visual Studio.
The C API functions LLVMAddFunctionAttr, LLVMGetFunctionAttr, \ 
LLVMRemoveFunctionAttr, LLVMAddAttribute, LLVMRemoveAttribute, LLVMGetAttribute, \ 
LLVMAddInstrAttribute and LLVMRemoveInstrAttribute have been removed.
The C API enum LLVMAttribute has been deleted.
The definition and uses of LLVM_ATRIBUTE_UNUSED_RESULT in the LLVM source were \ 
replaced with LLVM_NODISCARD, which matches the C++17 [[nodiscard]] semantics \ 
rather than gcc’s __attribute__((warn_unused_result)).
The Timer related APIs now expect a Name and Description. When upgrading code \ 
the previously used names should become descriptions and a short name in the \ 
style of a programming language identifier should be added.
LLVM now handles invariant.group across different basic blocks, which makes it \ 
possible to devirtualize virtual calls inside loops.
The aggressive dead code elimination phase (“adce”) now removes \ 
branches which do not effect program behavior. Loops are retained by default \ 
since they may be infinite but these can also be removed with LLVM option \ 
-adce-remove-loops when the loop body otherwise has no live operations.
The llvm-cov tool can now export coverage data as json. Its html output mode has \ 
also improved.
