This was done some time ago to make it easier to diff large amounts of SIL
output. The problem is that it makes it difficult to know the *true* memory
order that the predecessor list is in which can lead to surprise when working
with SIL and create test cases.
I believe some time after that point we added the notion of "sorted" sil, i.e.
SIL that does not guarantee any relation to the actual memory representation of
the SIL and is meant to ease diffing. This fits nicely with the true intention
of this sort of sorting.
Thus this commit puts sorting PredIDs, UserIDs behind that flag.
This ireapplies commit 255c52de9f.
Original commit message:
Serialize debug scope and location info in the SIL assembler language.
At the moment it is only possible to test the effects that SIL
optimization passes have on debug information by observing the
effects of a full .swift -> LLVM IR compilation. This change enable us
to write targeted testcases for single SIL optimization passes.
The new syntax is as follows:
sil-scope-ref ::= 'scope' [0-9]+
sil-scope ::= 'sil_scope' [0-9]+ '{'
sil-loc
'parent' scope-parent
('inlined_at' sil-scope-ref )?
'}'
scope-parent ::= sil-function-name ':' sil-type
scope-parent ::= sil-scope-ref
sil-loc ::= 'loc' string-literal ':' [0-9]+ ':' [0-9]+
Each instruction may have a debug location and a SIL scope reference
at the end. Debug locations consist of a filename, a line number, and
a column number. If the debug location is omitted, it defaults to the
location in the SIL source file. SIL scopes describe the position
inside the lexical scope structure that the Swift expression a SIL
instruction was generated from had originally. SIL scopes also hold
inlining information.

As there are no instructions left which produce multiple result values, this is a NFC regarding the generated SIL and generated code.
Although this commit is large, most changes are straightforward adoptions to the changes in the ValueBase and SILValue classes.
Having a separate address and container value returned from alloc_stack is not really needed in SIL.
Even if they differ we have both addresses available during IRGen, because a dealloc_stack is always dominated by the corresponding alloc_stack in the same function.
Although this commit quite large, most changes are trivial. The largest non-trivial change is in IRGenSIL.
This commit is a NFC regarding the generated code. Even the generated SIL is the same (except removed #0, #1 and @local_storage).
