transformed by the inliner into a branch to the enclosing landing pad
(when inlined through an invoke). If not so optimized, it is lowered
DWARF EH preparation into a call to _Unwind_Resume (or _Unwind_SjLj_Resume
as appropriate). Its chief advantage is that it takes both the
exception value and the selector value as arguments, meaning that there
is zero effort in recovering these; however, the frontend is required
to pass these down, which is not actually particularly difficult.
Also document the behavior of landing pads a bit better, and make it
clearer that it's okay that personality functions don't always land at
landing pads. This is just a fact of life. Don't write optimizations that
rely on pushing things over an unwind edge.

- the selector for the landing pad must provide all available information
about the handlers, filters, and cleanups within that landing pad
- calls to _Unwind_Resume must be converted to branches to the enclosing
lpad so as to avoid re-entering the unwinder when the lpad claimed it
was going to handle the exception in some way
This is quite specific to libUnwind-based unwinding. In an effort to not
interfere too badly with other unwinders, and with existing hacks in frontends,
this only triggers on _Unwind_Resume (not _Unwind_Resume_or_Rethrow) and does
nothing with selectors if it cannot find a selector call for either lpad.

I also changed -simplifycfg, -jump-threading and -codegenprepare to use this to produce slightly better code without any extra cleanup passes (AFAICT this was the only place in -simplifycfg where now-dead conditions of replaced terminators weren't being cleaned up). The only other user of this function is -sccp, but I didn't read that thoroughly enough to figure out whether it might be holding pointers to instructions that could be deleted by this.

instruction around, reducing work.
Greatly simplify handling of debug instructions. There is no need to
build up a vector of them and then move them into the one predecessor
if we're processing a block. Instead just rescan the block and *copy*
them into the pred. If a block gets merged into multiple preds, this
will retain more debug info.

after the given instruction; make sure to handle that case correctly.
(It's difficult to trigger; the included testcase involves a dead
block, but I don't think that's a requirement.)
While I'm here, get rid of the unnecessary warning about
SimplifyInstructionsInBlock, since it should work correctly as far as I know.
