Made inlining conditional on inlining actually being sensible.

Added unfinished inliner that uses type feedback info to inline instance methods.
...
Made class method inliner also inline message sends to super.
Various updates caused by clang now attaching more sensible metadata to the IR.

Initial (working) type feedback pass. Records the IMP for every message lookup. Note: This writes 3 words for every single message send, which means that it makes code VERY slow and can fill up the filesystem if you leave it enabled.
...
The aim of this pass is to identify message send sites which can benefit from speculative inlining and inline caching. By itself, this pass is useless. It will later be combined with one that parses this information and then uses the existing caching and inlining infrastructure to optimize hot message send sites.
Now, however, it's time for me to go and dance, so the useful bit will have to wait.

Added speculative inlining of class messages. Currently inlines all that it can, without deciding whether it's sensible.

Made ClassIMPCache a ModulePass (it shouldn't be a FunctionPass because it adds globals).

Removed debugging code that shouldn't have been in last commit.
...
Aside: Testing the two passes from the last commit shows that they provide about a factor of 10 speedup for class messages.

Added -gnu-class-lookup-cache and -gnu-class-imp-cache passes. These add caching for class messages and also skip the class lookup (using the class symbol directly) where possible.
...
In combination, these make class messages marginally slower than function calls, rather than significantly slower than message sends.

Fixed IMP cacher to not cache the slot if the lookup function changes the receiver (this could result in a method being called on the wrong receiver, which would just be confusing).

Factored out code that performs IMP caching into a separate class. This can now be used by other passes that cache IMPs outside of loops (for example, always caching class messages because they always have the same receiver).

1918888ce1
Added LoopIMPCachePass. This pass automatically performs IMP caching on all loops.
...
Microbenchmark that just sends a message that does nothing 1000000000 times in a loop goes from taking 10.2 seconds to taking 4.7 after running the pass.
