Akira Hatanaka 2e00b98027 Distinguish __block variables that are captured by escaping blocks
from those that aren't.

This patch changes the way __block variables that aren't captured by
escaping blocks are handled:

- Since non-escaping blocks on the stack never get copied to the heap
  (see https://reviews.llvm.org/D49303), Sema shouldn't error out when
  the type of a non-escaping __block variable doesn't have an accessible
  copy constructor.

- IRGen doesn't have to use the specialized byref structure (see
  https://clang.llvm.org/docs/Block-ABI-Apple.html#id8) for a
  non-escaping __block variable anymore. Instead IRGen can emit the
  variable as a normal variable and copy the reference to the block
  literal. Byref copy/dispose helpers aren't needed either.

// C Language Family Front-end
//===----------------------------------------------------------------------===//

Welcome to Clang.  This is a compiler front-end for the C family of languages
(C, C++, Objective-C, and Objective-C++) which is built as part of the LLVM
compiler infrastructure project.

Unlike many other compiler frontends, Clang is useful for a number of things
beyond just compiling code: we intend for Clang to be host to a number of
different source-level tools.  One example of this is the Clang Static Analyzer.

If you're interested in more (including how to build Clang) it is best to read
the relevant web sites.  Here are some pointers:
