Summary:
This switches the EH implementation to the new proposal:
https://github.com/WebAssembly/exception-handling/blob/master/proposals/Exceptions.md
(The previous proposal was
https://github.com/WebAssembly/exception-handling/blob/master/proposals/old/Exceptions.md)
- Instruction changes
- Now we have one single `catch` instruction that returns a except_ref
value
- `throw` now can take variable number of operations
- `rethrow` does not have 'depth' argument anymore
- `br_on_exn` queries an except_ref to see if it matches the tag and
branches to the given label if true.
- `extract_exception` is a pseudo instruction that simulates popping
values from wasm stack. This is to make `br_on_exn`, a very special
instruction, work: `br_on_exn` puts values onto the stack only if it
is taken, and the # of values can vay depending on the tag.
- Now there's only one `catch` per `try`, this patch removes all special
handling for terminate pad with a call to `__clang_call_terminate`.
Before it was the only case there are two catch clauses (a normal
`catch` and `catch_all` per `try`).
- Make `rethrow` act as a terminator like `throw`. This splits BB after
`rethrow` in WasmEHPrepare, and deletes an unnecessary `unreachable`
after `rethrow` in LateEHPrepare.
- Now we stop at all catchpads (because we add wasm `catch` instruction
that catches all exceptions), this creates new
`findWasmUnwindDestinations` function in SelectionDAGBuilder.
- Now we use `br_on_exn` instrution to figure out if an except_ref
matches the current tag or not, LateEHPrepare generates this sequence
for catch pads:
```
catch
block i32
br_on_exn $__cpp_exception
end_block
extract_exception
```
- Branch analysis for `br_on_exn` in WebAssemblyInstrInfo
- Other various misc. changes to switch to the new proposal.

to reflect the new license.
We understand that people may be surprised that we're moving the header
entirely to discuss the new license. We checked this carefully with the
Foundation's lawyer and we believe this is the correct approach.
Essentially, all code in the project is now made available by the LLVM
project under our new license, so you will see that the license headers
include that license only. Some of our contributors have contributed
code under our old license, and accordingly, we have retained a copy of
our old license notice in the top-level files in each project and
repository.

Summary:
This adds support for the 'event section' specified in the exception
handling proposal. (This was named 'exception section' first, but later
renamed to 'event section' to take possibilities of other kinds of
events into consideration. But currently we only store exception info in
this section.)
The event section is added between the global section and the export
section. This is for ease of validation per request of the V8 team.
This patch:
- Creates the event symbol type, which is a weak symbol
- Makes 'throw' instruction take the event symbol '__cpp_exception'
- Adds relocation support for events
- Adds WasmObjectWriter / WasmObjectFile (Reader) support
- Adds obj2yaml / yaml2obj support
- Adds '.eventtype' printing support

Summary:
This adds support for LSDA (exception table) generation for wasm EH.
Wasm EH mostly follows the structure of Itanium-style exception tables,
with one exception: a call site table entry in wasm EH corresponds to
not a call site but a landing pad.
In wasm EH, the VM is responsible for stack unwinding. After an
exception occurs and the stack is unwound, the control flow is
transferred to wasm 'catch' instruction by the VM, after which the
personality function is called from the compiler-generated code. (Refer
to WasmEHPrepare pass for more information on this part.)
This patch:
- Changes wasm.landingpad.index intrinsic to take a token argument, to
make this 1:1 match with a catchpad instruction
- Stores landingpad index info and catch type info MachineFunction in
before instruction selection
- Lowers wasm.lsda intrinsic to an MCSymbol pointing to the start of an
exception table
- Adds WasmException class with overridden methods for table generation
- Adds support for LSDA section in Wasm object writer
