Josh Stone 023cc968e1 Make LLVMRustGetOrInsertGlobal always return a GlobalVariable
`Module::getOrInsertGlobal` returns a `Constant*`, which is a super
class of `GlobalVariable`, but if the given type doesn't match an
existing declaration, it returns a bitcast of that global instead.
This causes UB when we pass that to `LLVMGetVisibility` which
unconditionally casts the opaque argument to a `GlobalValue*`.

Instead, we can do our own get-or-insert without worrying whether
existing types match exactly. It's not relevant when we're just trying
to get/set the linkage and visibility, and if types are needed we can
bitcast or error nicely from `rustc_codegen_llvm` instead.

This directory currently contains some LLVM support code. This will generally
be sent upstream to LLVM in time; for now it lives here.

NOTE: the LLVM C++ ABI is subject to between-version breakage and must *never*
be exposed to Rust. To allow for easy auditing of that, all Rust-exposed types
must be typedef-ed as "LLVMXyz", or "LLVMRustXyz" if they were defined here.

Functions that return a failure status and leave the error in
the LLVM last error should return an LLVMRustResult rather than an
int or anything to avoid confusion.

When translating enums, add a single `Other` variant as the first
one to allow for new variants to be added. It should abort when used
as an input.

All other types must not be typedef-ed as such.
