This patch enables parsing and creating modules directly into the new debug info format. Prior to this patch, all modules were constructed with the old debug info format by default, and would be converted into the new format just before running LLVM passes. This is an important milestone, in that this means that every tool will now be exposed to debug records, rather than those that run LLVM passes. As far as I've tested, all LLVM tools/projects now either handle debug records, or convert them to the old intrinsic format. There are a few unit tests that need updating for this patch; these are either cases of tests that previously needed to set the debug info format to function, or tests that depend on the old debug info format in some way. There should be no visible change in the output of any LLVM tool as a result of this patch, although the likelihood of this patch breaking downstream code means an NFC tag might be a little misleading, if not technically incorrect: This will probably break some downstream tools that don't already handle debug records. If your downstream code breaks as a result of this change, the simplest fix is to convert the module in question to the old debug format before you process it, using `Module::convertFromNewDbgValues()`. For more information about how to handle debug records or about what has changed, see the migration document: https://llvm.org/docs/RemoveDIsDebugInfo.html
